Very touching. No "poor pitiful me" on this.,
By A Customer
This review is from: VH1 Inside Out-Keep Me in Your (DVD)
This VH1 documentary is layered with interviews with Warren, family, and his friends during his last year. The better of these clips was when Warren was discussing his philosophy and he tells Letterman "enjoy every sandwich." The documentary has a brief biography, which one would have hoped would have been longer. There is no "feel sorry for me" on this, it just shows a man facing death with his friends and family, trying to record his music as an outlet for his feelings. In the DVD Warren states that you write music because you want to share what you are feeling, and I think Warren on "The Wind" and this DVD does that very well. Do not expect a "farewell speech," Warren has no interest. Rather he is just a man who feels lucky to have lived to 55, and wished he could have lived longer. The Vodka drinker in the 1970's and the later family man in the 1980's goes about life with the same energy he always has during the recording of "The Wind." At the end of this, I wondered if I could have been as brave as Warren to face the world with humor in the face on my own mortality. Also interviewed and featured is Warren's children, friends, clips with Warren on Letterman, Jackson Browne, Ry Cooder, Don Henley, Tom Petty, Bruce Singsteen, Billy Bob Thronton, Joe Walsh, and Dwight Yoakam. Besides the extended version of the VH1 Inside Out, there is: -An hour of bonus footage

Keeping him in my heart...,

This review is from: VH1 Inside Out-Keep Me in Your (DVD)
When Warren Zevon was diagnosed with terminal cancer, he decided to make one last album, "The Wind," and the process is documented in this DVD. This effort is genuinely touching without being the least saccharine. Warren faced his last months with courage, grace, and a last surge of creative genius, and we are the richer for it.I'm hoping that someone will come up with a documentary (and/or a book biography) exploring Warren Zevon's entire "dirty life and times." He came of age in Los Angeles at a time when the music industry there was enormously prolific, and it would be of great interest to know more about Zevon's astonishingly durable web of friendship, his good times and bad ones as well.

Dirty Life And Times,

This review is from: VH1 Inside Out-Keep Me in Your (DVD)
VH1 broadcast an outstanding documentary about Warren Zevon making his album "The Wind" while he was terminally ill. It's great to finally have that documentary available on DVD, but the additional footage is a bit disappointing. I was hoping they would show more of Warren's last appearance on the David Letterman show, and include a complete performance of at least one song from that, but they didn't. Also, it was hard to hear the interviewer in some of the bonus interview footage. On the plus side, the music videos for the songs "Keep Me In Your Heart" and "Disorder In The House" are excellent. It's also a treat to watch Bruce Springsteen playing all of his guitar part, including two sizzling solos, for the song "Disorder In The House," while Warren watches in amazement. Warren Zevon touched a lot of lives and made a lot of famous friends. Several of them made guest appearances on his last album, including Jackson Browne, Ry Cooder, Don Henley, Tom Petty, Joe Walsh and the aforementioned Bruce Springsteen. My hope is that their experience of working with Warren will motivate them and other great musicians to participate in a tribute album to Warren Zevon.
