  • “Excitable Boy” (Warren Zevon Acoustic Rock Cover Song) – The Laptop Sessions

    Thursday, February 7th, 2008

    By Chris Moore:

    There’s lots of good stuff happening here at LaptopSessions.com! I’ve been spurred on by Jim and Jeff’s recent plans for releases and by all of Jim’s tireless work designing the website, so I have a couple “extra’s” for you today.

    First of all, I posted my review of Ringo’s Liverpool 8 album a half hour ago. (Another goal of mine this year is to write at least brief reviews of all the new albums I buy this year.) In the coming days and weeks, you can look for reviews of both Sheryl Crow’s and Jack Johnson’s new albums that came out today.

    In addition to the CD review, I have also posted a second “Behind the Scenes” video. I had the idea to make this short film when I was recording the session for Warren Zevon’s “Excitable Boy.” It’s really cheesy, but it was easy and fun to make, and I wanted to share it with you all.

    Finally, of course, I have posted my second song from one of my absolute favorite artists, Warren Zevon. You may know him for “Werewolves of London,” but he has written so much more! This is one of his more well-known songs and I hope you enjoy it. It’s somewhat disturbing, but if you think about the overall idea of the song, it’s actually an interesting statement from Zevon.

    I hope you enjoy all the new posts to be found on the site today, and you can look forward to all-new material from Jeff and Jim in the days to come as “a session-a-day keeps the viewers…um, coming back to LaptopSessions.com” continues!

  • “Looking for the Next Best Thing” (Warren Zevon Acoustic Rock Cover Song) – The Laptop Sessions

    Friday, November 23rd, 2007

    By Chris Moore:

    This is a great Warren Zevon song and I really wish I could have included the solo in the middle! Still, I had a lot of fun learning it and am proud to include a Zevon song in my repertoire. As I’ve seen Jim and Jeff build their list of bands/artists that they’ve covered, I’ve definitely begun writing my own list in my head, and this artist is a big check. I’ll definitely be playing more from him, if I could only decide which song I want to play next. Probably “Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner”…

Warren Zevon Acoustic Rock Cover Songs and Free mp3 Downloads

Known for cleverly working his morbid sense of humor into his songwriting, Warren Zevon is arguably one of the best acoustic musicians of his time. His new rock music, such as “Werewolves of London” and “Lawyers, Guns, and Money,” has yielded favorable music reviews and a loyal fan base. Certainly one of the most raw and unflinchingly straightforward songwriters ever, Zevon’s acoustic song style was featured in his live shows and on his live album Learning to Flinch. By the time he went into the recording sessions for his final album The Wind as he was fighting cancer, Zevon had built a great deal of songwriting and performing relationships with new music performers such as Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty. His catalog has become a favorite for songwriter Chris Moore as he chooses new material for his acoustic cover songs he will contribute to the Laptop Sessions music blog – there are many more Warren Zevon acoustic cover songs to come!
