One of the Zevon websites (http://members.aol.com/zevonfan1/private/zevon.htm) has a
great interview culled from Goldmine. A lengthy, and fascinating look at the Excitable
Boy. Can't remember if it covers Stravinsky

but devoid of sincerity and emotion.
You got that right! Especially obvious on that song she did about the
windstorm, "Blew By You".
At least it sounded like that's what she thought it was.

That viewpoint might be considered right-of-center, if gun ownership and
military content are relevant variables to you. I think Zevon's written
more gun songs than Ted Nugent has, and some of the percussion on
"Jungle Work" consists of him shooting a pistol into a garbage

The Zevon stuff picqued my interest as well. $60 later...well you know the story.

think he just likes to shoot guns. There's

Isn't that the album that has her version of "Poor Pitiful Me?" Love that

It's a good one, a great arrangement that improves on Zevon's
It's on Ronstadt's Sweet Dreams album. I'm not sure which one of Warren's its
on but it really is a ZEVON cut. Give him what credit he is due is my motto.

Pretty sure it's simple dreams but wouldnt swear to it.
And I agree Zevon needs every due he's
Oh, good, a Linda Ronstadt thread. Go back and check out her first Capital
record (I believe) with "Birds," "I Fall to Pieces," "I Still Miss
Someone," and a bunch of other good songs. That's the record when I first
discovered her, around the fall of 73, and it's still a minor classic in
my book.

[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

I can confirm that this is in the can, so to speak. My inside source

I've only heard one cut from Trio II ("High Sierra" a song that I am

Interesting comment, as I'm not aware of that many versions; there's
Ronstadt's and Chesapeake's, and I seem to remember an
