My shit's fucked up--Warren Zevon 

On this episode of Remainders, our hosts discuss the life and dirty times of Warren Zevon. A gifted songwriter, outsider, cynic, and romantic, Zevon remains an underappreciated rock and roll legend. More than merely the singer behind ‘Werewolves of London,’ Zevon mastered the art of ‘song noir’ and was admired by Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Martin Scorsese and countless other artists. 

Behind the critical accolades, he spent a lifetime struggling against alcoholism and drug addiction. His obsession with death came to light in 2002 when Zevon was diagnosed with mesothelioma and was given only months to live. Despite his death sentence, Zevon set out to make the best album of his career. Join us as we pay tribute to the legend.
