Is it Tom Waits or is it Louie Armstrong?
Waits indignantly accuses Frito Lay of ripping off his “unique vocal style” in its Salsa Rio Doritos radio spot (Pop Eye, Oct. 23).
Come on, Tom, your style just mimics that of the great Louis Armstrong . . . from the gravelly voice to the off-beat phrasing.
You and Frito are banditos.
