Welcome to the LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl, hosted by Scott Dudelson. In this very special episode, we dive into the genius and madness of the great Warren Zevon via a dynamic roundtable reuniting three of his longtime collaborators - Waddy Wachtel, Jorge Calderón and Bob Glaub - and our guest co-host, avowed Zevon super fan producer/musician Shooter Jennings. 

Part one of this three part tribute to Warren Zevon features a treasure trove of insights, anecdotes and wild tales across the decades that marked Zevon's legacy, from his time playing with The Everly Brothers in the early 1970's through the writing and recording of Mr. Bad Example in 1991. Bringing to life Zevon's Self Titled album (1976); Excitable Boy (1978); Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School (1980); and Mr. Bad Example (1991) our guests share incredible stories and intimate details of the recording, writing and creative process that add vibrant color to his remarkable body of work.

In this episode Shooter Jennings and I host three former collaborators who reunite to reflect with humor and emotion on their making of this legendary catalog. The guests include Waddy Wachtel who produced and co-wrote on the albums Excitable Boy, The Envoy, Mr. Bad Example and whose distinctive guitar can be heard on these and other albums throughout Zevon's career; Jorge Calderón, one of Warrens closest friends and career long co-writers (Veracruz, Jungle Work, Keep Me In Your Heart) as well as the producer of Zevon’s grammy winning final album - The Wind (which will be a focus of Part 2 in this series); and Bob Glaub, legendary touring and session bass player who can be heard all over Warrens Self Titled album, Excitable Boy, The Envoy and Mr. Bad Example.

Co-hosting this episode is Grammy winning musician/producer Shooter Jennings, a Zevon super fan who in 2023 released a live Zevon covers album with his project the “Werewolves of Los Angeles” (check it out here: ffm.to/dozevon)

Shooter and I delve into the untold stories of his Zevon's most iconic songs and reflect on his immense talent and unique personality. Warren Zevon is a musical icon who left an indelible mark on rock and roll. 

Stay tuned for part 2 & 3 of the series which will focus on Life'll Kill Ya, My Ride's Here and The Wind featuring an in depth conversation with Jorge Calderón (producer and co-writer of The Wind) and Noah Scot Snyder (engineer on The Wind & My Ride's Here).
