Music: THE BEST OF THE SEVENTIES
(2 of 2)
Warren Zevon (Asylum, 1976). If a Black Mask writer studied Stravinsky, turned to rock and set down his hard-boiled romances on a piano played by shooting the keys with a .44 Magnum, he'd sound a little like Warren Zevon. Just a little. Rock of rare recklessness and unguarded sentiment.
The Clash, Give 'Em Enough Rope (Epic, 1978). Politicized punk, the musical equivalent of being roughed-up in a back alley. R.I.P. the Sex Pistols.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Rust Never Sleeps (Reprise/Warner Bros., 1979). Young's songs are benedictions at the end of a long, troubled night. This album strikes a neat balance between reverie and delirium.
