My personal favorite Zevon song:

 

[swami24]

So many great songs, but I will never forget this one, and his last time on Letterman.


This song still gives me the chills.

Gonna have to spoiler tag this bad boy.

Zevon's best (of many great compositions):

This is the peak of burn songs. Just savage.

"I'm sitting here playing solitaire with my pearl handled deck" is an incredible metaphor.

This is the peak of burn songs. Just savage.

The best F-off song of all-time. No doubt in my mind. Absolute perfection.

"I'm sitting here playing solitaire with my pearl handled deck" is an incredible metaphor.

One of my favorite Zevon lines. (Granted, I have tons of them.) It’s capped beautifully by:

The county won’t give me no more methadone
And they cut off your welfare check

Nice. Dawes are huge Zevon fans.

They have a bunch of excellent Zevon covers if you want to go down a rabbit hole. They do they damn well too, I think Warren would approve.

I’ve listened to them all, I think, but it’s been a while. I should revisit.

Today - Steely Dan, Aja

Didn't get into Steely Dan until last year but now I love them. Aja is great of course but so is Can't Buy A Thrill, Pretzel Logic, and Gaucho. Donald Fagen's solo album Nightfly is also pretty damn good. Their albums sound incredible on vinyl too.

OH WE DOIN' ZEVONS?????

Been listening to a lot of this guy, he just put out a record that's pretty good. If you like country music that's actually country music, there's a ton of that coming out right now...Sturgill Simpson, Sierra Ferrell, this guy all released records in the last couple months, kinda building off a resurgent strain out of Kentucky/West Virginia right now that also includes the brilliant Tyler Childers. MOUNTAIN MUSIC IS BACK BABY.
