Warren Zevon - Epilogue: Live At The Edmonton Folk Music Festival

Warren Zevon’s final concert, recorded August 9, 2002 at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival, available for the first time • Features “Werewolves Of London,’ “Poor Poor Pitiful Me,” Lawyers, Guns & Money,” “Play It All Night Long,” and more • Double black vinyl LP with etched 4th side and liner notes from longtime Zevon band member and friend Matt Cartsonis, who accompanied Warren during this performance  Available for Record Store Day Black Friday Stores  One of my favorite repeatable moments in our sets was looking over when he was singing that line from “Don’t Let Us Get Sick”: “I’m lucky to be here with someone I like . . .” to find him looking at me. That’s some pure and precious stuff, and I’m immensely grateful for the memory. ––Matt Cartsonis from his liner notes  Luckily, 2025 Rock & Roll Hal of Fame inductee, Warren Zevon left us with a treasure trove of nearly four decades of incredible songs and performances. Neither Warren, nor his long-time band member, accompanist, and friend Matt Cartsonis, nor the 14,000 people in attendance at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival knew this would be Warren’s final concert—it was just another great performance from an exception songwriter and artist. 

Epilogue: Live At The Edmonton Folk Music Festival offers you the chance to experience it for the first time, or relive it if you were there.  Featuring Warren on guitar, harmonica, and piano, with Cartsonis adding guitar, dulcimer, fiddle, harmonies and more, the pair run through classics like “Werewolves Of London,’ “Poor Poor Pitiful Me,” Lawyers, Guns And Money,” and “Play It All Night Long.” The set also features a performance of the song “Dirty Life And Times,” only ever played twice! The pair found room in the set to pay tribute to Canada with a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “A Case Of You” and the traditional, “Canadee-i-o.”  Available on double black Vinyl (with etched fourth side) for Record Store Day Black Friday Stores, Epilogue: Live At The Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been mastered and restored multiple Grammy-winning engineer Michael Graves and Jordan McLeod of Osiris Studio with Matt Cartsonis. Cartsonis also adds poignant liner notes about the performance, and insight into his musical relationship and friendship with Zevon.  Epilogue: Live At The Edmonton Folk Music Festival is a gift from a truly legendary singer and songwriter. Play it all night long, indeed.
