If you liked that song, I would suggest getting started with his earlier albums (Closing Time, The Heart of Saturday Night, and Nighthawks at the Diner) along with the album the song is on (Small Change). His voice and musical style are very, very different in his more recent albums and while some of them are still good, I found them much harder to get into before I had heard his earlier albums. I think he's one of those artists whose stuff you have to get into somewhat chronologically in order to fully appreciate him. I hope that makes sense.
