WARREN ZEVON

Stand In The Fire (Expanded & Remastered)

$11.98 CD

Recorded at L.A.'s Roxy theatre in 1981, this long-out-of-print live album features the two unforgettable original songs Zevon debuted on that year's tour, "The Sin" and "Stand In The Fire." Also includes searing versions of "Lawyers, Guns And Money," "Werewolves Of London," "Poor, Poor Pitiful Me," "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead," "Mohammed's Radio," and "Jeannie Needs A Shooter" (a co-write with Bruce Springsteen) among other stellar performances. Four previously unreleased cuts include "Johnny Strikes Up The Band," "Frank And Jesse James," and "Hasten Down The Wind." New liner notes feature an essay by Rolling Stone senior writer David Fricke.

The late Warren Zevon is one of rock's most unique and idiosyncratic artists—as well as one of its most cerebral. Blending intellect, passion, biting wit, cinematic storytelling flair, and unflinching observations, Zevon's body of work is a too-often-overlooked treasure trove of singer-songwriter brilliance. Before emerging as a solo artist out of the Los Angeles music scene with an acclaimed Jackson Browne-produced debut in 1976, Zevon's eclectic resume included stints in the duo Lyme & Cybelle and as the Everly Brothers' pianist.
