Negative Positive
Title: Sadly, a disappointment
Review: I loved Warren Zevon's work and had high hopes for his sad, last original album but this one just doesn't cut it. Dirty Life & Times and Keep Me In Your Heart can be numbered among his best but the rest of the tracks are--well--lacking. I do note the exception of Knockin' On Heaven's Door--which is well-sung and arranged but still offers nothing more than what Dylan or Clapton had already given it. The much anticipated Disorder In The House has more of a jam feeling to it rather than a finished track. Nothing wrong with a good jam session but you'd like at least one of the singers to be on key. Rub Me Raw has a great blues arrangement but the lyrics aren't much. The rest of the cd is rather bland. You'd do better to look for the good complilations available out there. Maybe wait until a new one comes out with the three good tracks included from this cd. I wish it had been better.
