Reviews Customer Reviews for Sentimental Hygiene Warren Zevon Gets Sober For The Second Time, And Comes Back Swinging With A New Album Rating: Around 1980, Warren Zevon had gotten clean and sober following a bout with alcoholism, resulting in three great albums- BAD LUCK STREAK IN DANCING SCHOOL, the live STAND IN THE FIRE, and THE ENVOY, after which, following the use of wine for a ritual purpose (he was Jewish), he fell off the wagon again and was not heard from for five years. By 1987, he'd regained his sobriety, and came back swinging with SENTIMENTAL HYGIENE, arguably his best since STAND IN THE FIRE. Although he still has a wicked sense of humor ("Detox Mansion" satirizes the experience of being in rehab, whereas "Even A Dog Can Shake Hands" serves as a sarcastic warning for me that staying away from toxic people will help me look good for several pretty actresses), it's tempered by thoughtful examinations of what he learned while getting sober, which make this CD, with its remastered sound, cut deeper emotionally than some of his early work. This album is essential listening for anyone struggling with ANY type of addiction; in fact, even a horse-lover who compulsively gambles every last penny at the races can learn from this CD.
Customer Reviews for Sentimental Hygiene Cd Sentimental for Zevon Rating: This is another great Zevon album. I had the LP and just bought the remastered version on CD. Maybe it's just me but the title track Sentimental Hygiene, well I just can't get it out of my head since the first time I heard it years ago. Check it out dog..5 stars! It's worth the price of the CD just to crank it up and rock out to it.
