There all pretty good. Ya gotta respect a guy who, diagnosed with terminal lung
cancer and given 2 months to live, keeps going for over a year and releases
such tracks as a cover of Dylan's "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and "I'll Sleep
When I'm Dead".

But my favorite is "Excitable Boy", which, besides the title track, includes
such classics as:

Werewolves of London
Nighttime in the Switching Yard
Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner

A great talent, gone but never forgotten.

They played a cut from his new album. Good stuff, though pretty soft
edged for him. You could play it on a folk music show. Understandable
under the circumstances. It's gonna be my next buy.

The only thing I'm surprised about is that no one has mentioned my
favorite Warren Zevon song, "Lawyers, Guns, and Money".
