Preludes:
Rare and Unreleased Recordings
is a
two-CD compilation
of music and interviews,
including unreleased
outtakes and demos,
by singer-songwriter
who died in 2003.
A few months after
Zevon's death,
his son,
Jordan,
drove out to one
of his father's
storage spaces
in the San Fernando Valley
to begin the process
of sorting through
old recordings.
He discovered over
one hundred
unreleased
outtakes and demos
in a piano-sized
touring case.
Preludes
features sixteen
of the newly
discovered recordings,
including six tracks
never before released
on any
Warren Zevon album:
"Empty Hearted Town",
"Going All the Way",
"Steady Rain",
"Stop Rainin' Lord",
"Studebaker"
and
"The Rosarita Beach Café".
All of the songs
were recorded
before 1976.
The album also includes
previously unreleased
versions of
"Werewolves of London"
and
"Accidentally Like a Martyr".
The second disc
includes a
radio interview
with Zevon,
conducted by
Jody Denberg
in 2000.
