Subject: Just a note on the supporting band
They're actually called "Something Happens!", a great Irish band from the 80s/90s.

Subject: Energy + Musicianship = A Keeper
This 1995 performance is well worth a download, even on a dial-up line like mine.

Audio quality ranges from fair-plus to good. Distortion is very low, dynamic compression is low, and there's some good low bass from the kick-drum. However, Zevon's voice often sounds somewhat distant, and there's too much lower-midrange. The distance problem generally improves in the "d2t" tracks.

High fidelity aside, we have here some very good music performed well. The supporting musicians are "Something Happened," a five-person band from Dublin. The band is tight, skilled, and sometimes witty. Zevon and the band's mutual respect and enjoyment are obvious. The band sings and harmonizes well, which helps a lot on, say, "Turbulence." A good share of the limelight is given to keyboardist Patrick Fitzpatrick (I TOLD you they were Irish)--who, for instance, takes the place of about 7 chorus members at the end of "Desperado Under the Eaves." I don't know which guitar is Zevon's and which belongs to the band's Ray Harman, but the guitar work in this gig is good. The energy level is high (cf. "Turbulence").

I especially enjoyed the long instrumental riffs at the end of "Play It All Night Long," "Turbulence," and "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead." All three songs rock. New to me and much enjoyed were "Seminole Bingo" and "Mr. Bad Example." If I'm not mistaken, the latter is a polka. "Poisonous Lookalike," also new to me, is agreeable--though the "mushroom" metaphor seems an odd way to compare girlfriends.

Rest in peace, Warren, and many thanks for allowing recordings like this to be shared.
