Warren Zevon

Warren Zevon cover art

Produced by Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon's major-label debut brutally contrasted the laid-back, sunshine-soaked California singer-songwriter scene with intensely sarcastic, misanthropic poetry. The album is a remarkably melodic, wonderfully humorous piano-rock masterwork, filled with deeply satirical storytelling and beautifully melancholic, intensely nocturnal reflections on Los Angeles sleaze.
