[Sgt PSN]

My son has excellent musical taste.  Right now, he's grooving around the house to John Lee Hooker, stopping now and then to pump his legs up and down and do a slow motion spin or two before getting back to the business of farging shtein up.

Your son sounds drunk.  Well done. 

[SD]

Been listening to Cake a lot lately.

[Diomedes]

I have an awesome youtube clip of him drinking himself off a chair, being served by a cute, older girl.  Here, I'll send it to you.

Ancestors. Of Sound Mind and Neptune With Fire albums. Good stuff

A couple weeks ago I got 10 Warren Zevon albums and they've provided the soundtrack to my life since.

I'm ashamed to have discovered him this late in life, the guy was the shtein.

[General_Failure]

You must have heard one or two songs of his before. Werewolves of London or Lawyers, Guns and Money.

[Geowhizzer]

Like Zevon, except for perhaps his biggest hit.  "Werewolves of London" drive me nuts for some reason.

[Diomedes]

Yeah, I knew Werewolves, Lawyers Guns & Money, Excitable Boy, Roland the Headless Gunner, Poor Poor Pitiful Me, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, etc....the hits as it were.

What I didn't know was how great the rest of his work was.

I can't get over Desperadoes Under the Eaves right now...what a gorgeous song.

[Diomedes]

Another thing I've learned is that Jackson Browne, who I've always thought of as a pretty boy soft rock throw away, was instrumental in getting Zevon work.  He really went to bat for Zevon and so my opinion of Browne has softened.  I still don't much like his music, but his association with Zevon improves my estimation of him.

Also...look at the personnel on some of these albums...for example:

Holy crap, what a crew.

[Rome]

It's basically a who's who of California musical superstars of the 70s.

Excitable Boy is one of my favorite albums ever.

[Diomedes]

The name David Lindley jumped out at me from that list...that guy is right up there with Ry Cooder imho.
