One of my favorite Zevon songs!

Each time I found out a new Zevon release was avaiable, I picked it up.At the time of, "Sentimental Hygiene," (1986?)release, we were stuck with cassettes.Anyway, after adding this to a bag full of cassettes for a long drive, once on the road, I listened for the first time.I was immediately amazed by the lyrics, but when the guitar solo "Hit,' I smiled, with no doubt about it being Neil Young.Just another example of "Genius," the radio ignored.Thanks Warren.See you later.

I saw him doing an interview on a Belgian television show, after he was diagnosed with lung cancer. All I could think was Sh*t, he's not going to last long" and "Sh*t, he's having fun", laughing all through the interview as if he accepted his (all to premature) death. Warren is dead, long live Warren.

Many thanks to Mike Wilson for explaining the Southeast Asian genesis of this very curious phrase to me.

Agreed, of course. More than just musicianship though his greatness was his writing. The man was a poet, maybe one of the best our generation ever had. And I know I am stepping out on a limb by saying this but imho he was a better writer than Dylan. Hell even Bob would do his songs in concert and was one of the many who wanted to be a session musician on his albums. Can't get any better than that I suppose!
