Zevon's vocals truly shine on this set, and demonstrate an emotional intelligence that's deeply affecting despite the rougher textures of the recordings, and a number of the unreleased songs are fine additions to his repertoire, especially "Studebaker," "Stop Rainin' Lord" and "The Rosarita Beach Café," any of which would have been worthy additions to Zevon's early studio albums. These alternate takes often reveal a tighter and more potent emotional focus than the "official" versions, and some include different lyrics or musical structures in their rough draft form. WARREN ZEVON THE FRENCH INHALER FULLMost of the tracks on Preludes feature Zevon with minimal accompaniment, often just his guitar or piano with one or two additional musicians, and even the tracks with a full band such as "Werewolves of London," "Desperados Under the Eaves" and "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" are sharper and funkier than the versions fans know best. While no details on recording dates or personnel for the sessions survived, most of the material consists either unreleased tunes or songs that would later appear on Warren Zevon or Excitable Boy With one track dating back to his misbegotten debut album, 1969's “Wanted Dead or Alive”. Warren Zevon's, "Preludes - Rare & Unreleased Recordings" was compiled by Zevon's son Jordon Devon from a cache of demo tapes discovered after Warren's death.
