The essential interviews on Lulu.com

Lulu.com is showing the following item as being available to buy since early June: Tom Waits: The Essential Interviews by Jimmy Jupiter. The 196 page paperback publication costs 14,72 euro, but you can also download a pdf version at 8,16 euro.

Not 'might' - it IS the list of articles. What is in question is the publications from whence said articles originate.
