Warren Zevons final concert, recorded August 9, 2002 at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival, available for the first time.

One of my favourite repeatable moments in our sets was looking over when he was singing that line from Dont Let Us Get Sick: Im lucky to be here with someone I like . . . to find him looking at me. Thats some pure and precious stuff, and Im immensely grateful for the memory. excerpt from liner notes by Matt Cartsonis

Luckily, 2025 Rock & Roll Hall 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 Warrens final concertit was just another great performance from an exceptional 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 Mitchells 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 2025, Epilogue: Live At The Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been mastered and restored by 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.
