The Franks Wild Years album, drawn from the show, is subtitled, \"un operachi romantico in two acts,\" though the songs themselves do not carry the plot. Rather, this is just the third installment in Waits' eccentric series of Island Records albums in which he seems most inspired by German art song and carnival music, presenting songs in spare, stripped-down arrangements consisting of instruments like marimba, baritone horn, and pump organ and singing in a strained voice that has been artificially compressed and distorted.?\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tom_Waits\"\u003ehttp:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tom_Waits\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracklist\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA1 Hang On St. Christopher \u003cbr\u003e A2 Straight To The Top (Rhumba) \u003cbr\u003e A3 Blow Wind Blow \u003cbr\u003e A4 Temptation? \u003cbr\u003e A5 Innocent When You Dream (Barroom) \u003cbr\u003e A6 I'll Be Gone? \u003cbr\u003e A7 Yesterday Is Here \u003cbr\u003e A8 Please Wake Me Up? \u003cbr\u003e A9 Franks Theme\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eB1 More Than Rain? \u003cbr\u003e B2 Way Down In The Hole \u003cbr\u003e B3 Straight To The Top (Vegas)?
