:(

Yep...."Bring Lawyers, Guns and Money"..... "Play that dead bands song".....
"Grandpa just **** his pants"...

Maybe he shoulda stopped SMOKING.... :rolleyes:

The guy was great. I was a relative newcomer to him with "Sentimental Hygene." Every song was well-written, and particularly well-sung. Thematically, that album may be timeless.

Smoking added to his voice (read deepened). Could you imagine "Werewolves of London" sung by Michael Jackson or Justin Timberlake? I can't.

Yes, Smoking definitely killed him, as it's killing my dad at this very moment. At least Warren Zevon kept his humor to the end; on the subject of his impending death he remarked, "this is a little extreme. All I wanted was the Steve McQueen haircut". :)

The world lost a talent and a true wit. RIP. :cool:

His ol pal Letterman did a nice tribute of sorts to him on his Monday night show. You could tell he was pretty bummed.

Mr. Bad Example. VH1 did a nice documentary on his last album.

I didn't know that Zevon wrote a few of Linda Ronstadt's hit songs. Some of these guys go way back. Lived a big life in a shortend span. Ditto: RIP

jaysus, what a way to end the week. you know you're getting older when all the people you grew up with start dying one-by-one.

rip :(

I l-o-v-e-d his stuff when I was in law school. I realized, reading this thread, that my 20th year reunion for law school is this year. Boy that makes me feel old. Time to have a blast in the 911! Oh, wait, I still have no brakes. Crap.

go anyway. brakes are for sissies :D

"Look away down Gower Ave."
 

"Home sweet Alabam, Play that dead bands song, Turn up those speakers full blast and play it all night long." W. Z.

Zevon speaking about himself said, "That it was hard for him to write songs, thats why he wasn't a prolific songwriter."

Warren Zevon, Tom Waits an Keith Richards...all social outlaws

"Don't you know there ain't no Devil, theres just God when he's drunk....Well this stuff will probably kill you...let's do another line." T. W.

"Please allow me to introduce myself" K.R.

Yes WZ will be missed............
