Photographers: Jimmy Wachtel; George Gruel. BAD LUCK STREAK IN DANCING SCHOOL finds Warren Zevon knee deep in his own literary yet sardonic and grotesque music. From the opening riff of the title track, Zevon pounds and rocks against the tide of typical singer-songwriter blather. Zevon swings his mighty piano through an array of countrified boogie, bare-knuckle rockers, absurd pop, and swooning ballads. He hits the mark with the doomed love of "Jeannie Needs a Shooter" (title supplied by Springsteen), which became a minor hit upon its release. There are a few missteps, mainly the forced funk and overwrought machismo "Jungle Work." He turns his sights on country life on "Play it all Night Long," invoking incest, cancer and Lynyrd Skynyrd in one fell swoop. It also bears the distinction of being the only pop song in history that contains the word "Brucellosis." On "Gorilla, You're a Desperado" he once again strikes at his own California homeland, reveling in the shallow glitz of Los Angeles.
