Zevon and only...Warren Zevon

BIG NEWS from the estate of Warren Zevon today.

They've released a wide variety of live concert recordings spanning 1976 to 2001 over at Archive.org. Get your hands on them HERE!

I'm a huge fan of both the music and the personality of Mr. Zevon. He led the life he wanted to live and didn't let anyone or anything interrupt the path he was on. All the while composing dark and witty music that holds just as much meaning today as it did when he first wrote it.

In honor, I post this amazing version of "Lawyers, Guns, and Money" from a 1994 BBC show.

Note his opening monologue to understand the man's true brilliance.
