What's he up to these days? Besides giving Heath Ledger acting advice.

Last seen performing on the Letterman Farewell week. He also did some covers on the Blind Wllie Johnson tribute album.

Tom Waits has written a ton of great songs. Definitely deserves to be in the conversation.

Waits is damn good

I'll add Todd Rundgren to the list.
Dude has never gotten enough credit for being a brilliant songwriter across multiple genres.

I'll go one further - he's one of the more underrated multi-instrumentalists of that era. Almost all of the guitars for Meatloaf, for example - including making the sound effect to sound like a motorcycle, among other production techniques. He was like the Bob Rock of his era, except with talent.

Was cranking Utopia - Crybaby full blast on my headphones at work just last week. Damn shame that puny viewing total(but does have 152 likes vs 2 downs)

Shocked to not see Billy Joel. Solid writer right there.
