After releasing several gold & platinum LP's throughout his career, Warren Zevon returned with a vengeance in the 1990's with a series of fine albums on Giant Records, with the often cited masterwork Mr. Bad Example and the equally artistic Mutineer. Both of these Warren Zevon albums have been out of print for years. However, Friday Music is very honored to announce the limited edition release of these two Warren Zevon's classics together for the first time on one newly mastered compact disc! The albums feature friends like Bruce Horsnby, David Lindley, Waddy Wachtel,& Dwight Yoakam.

These are among the few Zevon albums I do not own and I would like to. But damn, I despise two-fers and it's questionable whether Friday is really remastering these. The cover art looks like garbage. Also, no bonus cuts.

The originals sound fine Pete, so you'd probably do well looking for used versions of those. There are a lot of fine songs on these two records.

I like both these albums and agree with Smiff that the original CDs sound fine. "Searching For A Heart" is one of my favorite Zevon songs.

Friday Music did a great job with some of the Procol Harum & Gary Brooker remasters, so I'm really looking forward to this one.

I agree Renny. I also love Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead. It's really a very nice comeback album (coming after the uneven Transverse City.
