[Matt Benz] No, it is Simple Dreams, now that I think of it;
with Tumblin Dice, Blue Bayou, etc on there.
Zevon's the whip. Or one of em, anyway. That whole EL LAY sound
of the 70's, early 80's needed a good shot of cynical (before it was
used for Miller Beer commercials) morbid humor to give a bitter taste to
the sweet n lite, and WZ was just the man to deliver. The fact that he
got so many of his songs covered by Rondstadt is interesting,
considering his left of center viewpoint and edgy songs.
