Description
This two disc compilation of music and interviews, including unreleased outtakes and demos, by singer-songwriter Warren Zevon, who passed in 2003 released on "Partly Cloudy Blue" vinyl exclusively for Record Store Day in June of 2021.
A few months after Zevon's departure, 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. 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.
The album was released by New West Records in 2007 in a deluxe two-CD package in a hardbound slipcase. It includes a 44-page booklet with previously unpublished family photos, integrated with excerpts from the memoir I'll Sleep When I'm Dead: The Dirty Life and Times of Warren Zevon by Crystal Zevon.
