Zevon, Warren - Transverse City

RARE/2HAND VINY LP ON VIRGIN 1989

Virgin 210 253 made in Germany with lyric inner sleeve.

Vinyl NM. Cover VG+.

The album features an impressive array of guest stars -- including Jerry Garcia, David Gilmour, Neil Young, Jack Casady, Jorma Kaukonen, and Benmont Tench -- but while its surface is as glossy as the albums Zevon created when he was the darling of the L.A. Mellow Mafia, the tone is as grim as anything the man ever created. Transverse City is a song cycle about a culture in collapse, in which technology has become our unfriendly master, the sky and stars have grown unfamiliar to us, conflict lurks around every corner, and our last remaining freedom is the right to spend our money. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Zevon
