經典萬聖節之歌〈Werewolves Of London〉原主唱Warren Zevon,以傳統搖滾、民謠、藍調風格為根基,和Bob Dylan等早期民謠歌手一樣,當人民的發聲筒,詞彙充滿了諷刺意味。由於長期抽煙的關係,Warren經醫生證明感染肺癌,宣告只剩六個月的生命。於是利用最後時間錄製最後一張專輯《The Wind》,對音樂畢生熱愛奉獻給樂迷,發行兩週之後與世長辭,享年56歲。最後遺作一口氣拿下兩座葛萊美獎喝采!
這張《A Quiet Normal Life: The Best Of Warren Zevon》是Warren的生涯首張精選,主要蒐集Elektra / Asylum旗下的70-80年代經典。包括:經典萬聖節之歌〈Werewolves Of London〉以及〈Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner〉、〈Mohammed's Radio〉、〈Desperados Under The Eaves〉、〈Lawyers, Guns And Money〉、〈Poor Poor Pitiful Me〉等重要曲目。美國獲頒金唱片銷售認證!
