Warren Zanes - People That I'm Wrong For
- Dualtone Music Group. Zanes began his musical career as a teenage guitarist in The Del Fuegos but detoured into academia. Zanes has been involved with the music industry since he joined the Del Fuegos in 1983. After leaving the band in 1989, Zanes pursued an academic career while continuing to work on his solo recordings.
Making three records for Slash/Warner Brothers, the Del Fuegos toured internationally and relentlessly, emulating the hard-working rock and roll bands who were their inspiration. Robert Plant, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty and other music world notables recognized the Del Fuegos as being among the significant bands of the eighties. While publishing widely on topics related to music and the arts, Zanes also recorded a solo album, Memory Girls, which features appearances by Emmylou Harris and Patty Griffin.
While most of this album is laid back, I found that a few are pretty good mid-tempo sounding songs. For example, track #4, #5, #8 and 10 gave me reasons to listen to the artist on this album. I feel like they each have their own tempo and message that Zanes tries to get across. Anyone who is a fan of Zanes, should go pick this album up to sample it because it is pretty good. I saw this quote that speaks for itself, “This is a dream job for me,” Zanes said. “For several years I’ve managed to write about music, make music, and teach at the university level. That quote alone should intrigue anyone to give his album a chance.
