:( amazing though that he made it through more than a year after being told he had three months to live and did one more album

Yeah, I actually thought he must have died before and I just missed it. I don't have any of his albums but when he subbed for Paul Schaeffer as bandleader on David Letterman I learned to at least appreciate him.

I was at 2 of those shows. He was really good.
I have been a fan for a long time because my father was really into him so I have known his music for a while.

It's amazing to see all the people who were closet Zevon fans come out of the wood work. It would have been nice to see those people buy his albums when he wasn't dying. He was an incredible lyricist. One of the few that was completely sincere no matter if he was singing about love lossed or herion junkies shooting up next to the Pioneer Chicken stand. Damn, I'm going to miss him. Now, maybe, they'll rerelease his out of print albums so I can complete my WZ discography.

...oh, yeah, I'm back....my computer blew up, so I got a new one.
