Always thought it was so fitting that he performed this at his last performance...

Drove 7 hours to a little bar in Buffalo, NY to see him back when word was just getting out that he had "some health issues"

We got there 3 hours early worried about getting a good seat and was shocked to see there were only 40-50 people that turned out for the show.
I spent the show about 20' from him and it was outstanding.

Quote:
Zevon's early music industry successes were found as a session musician, jingle composer, songwriter, touring musician, musical coordinator & bandleader. Despite all this, Zevon struggled to break through in his solo career, until his music was performed by Linda Ronstadt, beginning in 1976 with her album Hasten Down the Wind. This launched a cult following that lasted for 25 years, with Zevon making occasional returns to album and single charts until his death from cancer in 2003.
