SwordfishtrombonesSwordfishtrombones is an album by American singer-songwriter Tom Waits, released in September of 1983 (see 1983 in music). Though sales were poor (as had always been typical of Waits, a cult favorite), the album is widely remembered as one of Waits' best. Stylistically different from his previous LPs, Swordfishtrombones features reduced strings and piano, replacing them with soft horns. Swordfishtrombones peaked at #164 on Billboard's Pop Albums and Billboard 200 albums chart. Track listing All tracks written by Tom Waits. - "Underground" - 1:58
