James Campion is a returning guest. He’s here to talk about the life and career of the late great Warren Zevon and his 2018 book Accidentally Like a Martyr: The Tortured Art of Warren Zevon.
It’s hard to believe but it’s been 20 years since Zevon passed away. For nearly four decades, spanning 12 studio albums and 32 singles, no artist expressed the duality of life, the light and dark, the ugliness and the beauty better than Warren Zevon. As Warren’s ex-wife told James in his book: “If you’re looking at the themes through his songs and what influenced them, at the heart of everything is that Warren was an artist…first.”
