With today’s show, we continue our series on ‘How Music Changed’ by taking a close look at another ‘honorable mention’ artist. Warren Zevon may not have changed the world, but he certainly left enough of an imprint to remembered for a long, long while.
By combining outrageous characters with autobiographical details, Zevon brought his own personal zeal to each of his songs. His popularity rose and fell, depending on the whims of our cultural zeitgeist, but he never pandered to trends; his style remained fairly consistent from the time of his first ‘real’ solo album in 1976 until his death in 2004.
Today’s show celebrates his career, with the following songs;
1) Werewolves of London – (from “Excitable Boy”)
2) Poor Poor Pitiful Me – (from “Warren Zevon”)
3) Hasten Down the Wind – (from “Warren Zevon”)
4) Lawyers, Guns and Money – (from “Excitable Boy”)
5) Excitable Boy - (from “Stand in the Fire”)
6) Detox Mansion – from “Sentimental Hygiene”)
7) Raspberry Beret – the Hindu Love Gods
8) Disorder in the House – (from The Wind”)
9) Rub Me Raw – (from “The Wind”)
10) Keep Me in Your Heart – (from “The Wind”)
