Gary Calamar

Music
Gary Calamar pays tribute to Warren Zevon. Just days before the singer-songwriter passed away, Gary spoke with Zevon's son, Jordan Zevon, and his longtime friend and collaborator, Jorge Calderon, about the man that the LA Times called a master of subversive song craft. The tribute includes a discussion of Zevon's new CD, The Wind, the LA music scene in the 70's, and Warren's musical obsession with death as well as many compositions from Zevon's macabre and sentimental songbook.
