My two favorite WZ albums are his major-label debut and this one. _Excitable Boy_, a very close third (and currently duking it out with _Life'll Kill Ya_), has three or four of his best songs on it, but the album as a whole is a bit uneven (and, as another reviewer has remarked, too short). But there's not a weak track on _Sentimental Hygiene_.
Basically, it's the other three guys from R.E.M. (and Michael Stipe on one track) backing up WZ and some familiar Special Guests. The songs themselves are straightforward and extremely well-written; Zevon is in fine voice, he swaps off between keyboards and guitar and does brilliantly on both, and the production is solid throughout.
If you haven't been introduced to WZ yet, this is a good place to start. If you know only the Warren Zevon of "Lawyers, Guns and Money" and that pesky werewolf song, this CD will surprise and delight you. If you listened to him back in the 1970s but lost touch with him after _Bad Luck Streak In Dancing School_, this is where to reconnect. And if you've just picked up _Life'll Kill Ya_ and you're looking into some of WZ's earlier releases, _Sentimental Hygiene_ is probably an ideal choice.
As the title suggests, this is a very cathartic collection, with WZ's heart as close to his sleeve as it's ever likely to get. In addition to a large helping of straight-ahead rockers laced with his trademark wry wit, WZ also turns in a couple of downright gorgeous ballads -- "Reconsider Me" and "The Heartache" are two of my favorites here or anywhere.
I won't quite go so far as to bump this one ahead of _Warren Zevon_; the album that brought us "Mama Couldn't Be Persuaded," "Hasten Down The Wind," "Carmelita," and "Desperadoes Under The Eaves" will always be number one on my WZ list. But ever since 1987 it's had to share the top spot with this one.
The big surprise is that this album was recorded in 1987. Supposed to be his "comeback" album. Besides Neil Young; Don Henley, Brian Setzer, and Bob Dylan; plus a slew of other known musicians,also contribute. I'd never heard of this album, or any of it's songs. WOW - what a treat to find this little gem.
With Warren gone - tragic loss - there obviously hasn't been any new WZ music for quite a while. If you are a casual fan, but maybe looking for some "new" WZ - this album is a must. This album smokes......but has some nice cool ballads.
Don't miss it.

He’s a brilliant musician but what I really love about him is the interesting songs he writes which are so well put together and have a quirky angle to them.
There’s a song on this album about the lightweight Italian American boxer Ray “boom boom” Mancini which is sooo good and another about warren zevons stay in rehab, two favorites of mine.
All tracks are great, if you like Warren Zevon’s music, as I do, you’ll love this.
