That's one of Zevon's best. It always reminds me of Dylan's Desolation Row. But I'll Sleep When I'm Dead is my favorite Zevon.

“Carmelita” is as good as Zevon gets. good choice.

I’m partial to “Excitable Boy” for the dark humor. “Lawyers, Guns and Money” is also fun. RIP Warren.

I saw the headline before the embed preview finished and Carmelita was the song that instantly popped into my head. One of my all-time favorites as well.

Beautiful, I had never heard this before.
“Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner” is another great one.

We played “Let Nothing COme Between You” at our wedding. My favorite song of his is probably “Vost Indifference of Heaven” but it is hard to pick.

At my wedding, I made the band learn Werewolves…and our first dance was to Mutineer

I think that one is my favorite as well. Although it is a hard career to pick a favorite from.

That's a good one. My own favorite is Accidentally Like a Martyr, which sounds like a Bob Dylan song title but isn't. Speaking of Dylan, he does a great cover version of Zevon's Mutineer.
