Tom Waits also wrote "Ol' 55" which the Eagles recorded on one of their
early albums, and "(Looking for) the Heart of Saturday Night" which
Jerry Jeff Walker recorded.  Jerry Jeff also mentions Tom in some liner
notes.  Tom is also an associate of Ricky Lee Jones.  He also appears
as a soda jerk in "Rumblefish", a show announcer in "The Cotton Club"
and co-wrote the soundtrack to "One from the Heart."  What is his
connection to  Coppola?
You will also hear a Waits song "Invitation to the Blues" in the
movie "Bad Timing" (dir. by Nicholas Roeg and starring Art Garfunkel).
The album "Nighthawks at the Diner" is a live recording which is
representative of his style.  There was also a Soundstage (PBS)
which featured Tom Waits and Leon Redbone which was pretty good.
