Warren Zevon had toured for quite some time as a
songwriter in the rock scene, released a few
singles and landed a flop with his debut LP in
1969 before the tide finally turned. Roughly ten
years later, his live album ? put together from a
five-day residency at the Roxy Theater in West
Hollywood ? entered the annals of vinyl history as
one of the best live albums of all time and was
awarded four stars by the magazine Rolling Stone.
Ambiguously entitled by the comprehensively
educated Zevon, who had been confronted with the
tough side of show business, 'Stand In The Fire'
delivers genial simple pure and straightforward
rock right from the start, which hit the public
with a vengeance. Full of vim and elation, the
band pours out the significant, biting verses with
fire ('Jeannie Needs A Shooter') and fuels the
emotional inferno with high-speed bursts of rock
('Excitable Boy'). Zevon proves his skills as a
singer and songwriter in the ballad-like yet
powerful 'Mohammed?s Radio'. In a direct
comparison to this number we have the forthright,
no-nonsense hit 'Werewolves Of London' with its
close harmonies. Just how Zevon manages to succeed
in getting his delicate voice and lyrics over to
the public is shown in the powerful mix of heavy
and honky-tonk ('I?ll Sleep When I?m Dead') and
finally in the thunderous final number ? 'Bo
Didley?s A Gunslinger' ? with its percussive and
metrically complicated antiphony.
