David Gilmour played guitar on Warron's track: "Run Straight Down" from the album, Transverse City. It is a pretty good track. Great Gilmour guitar work! :wink:

He looks like (in that above picture) Mike Myers doing one of his characters off of SNL. :P

My brother got his greatest hits the other day actually, not bad, though i've hardly listened to it properly yet.

I don't mind that I don't know who Warren Zevon is. In fact it doesn't matter because no-one of you knows who is Olavi Virta... It's cultural, for finnish people maybe Warren Zevon was less important human than Olavi Virta (which wasn't that important person)... well but it's sad, I hate cancer

I bought his final album today. I haven't listened to all of it yet, but so far so good.

I'm feeling pretty old, here- I remember when "Werewolves of London" was BIG... Y'know- like when it first came out... ( R.I.P.; You'll be remembered fondly...)

Have you heard the hilarious reggae tinged remake by David Lindley and El Rayo X?

He sounds like Steve Martin...but it's great, IMO.
