Singer-songwriter and music legend Warren Zevon passed away on Sunday,September 7 at the age of 56. Zevon had survived 9 months longer than doctors had anticipated. Instead of retreating from the world, he bestowed upon it one final gift — a masterpiece of an album titled The Wind.
Zevon had written many terrific songs over the years and, of course, will always be remembered for “Werewolves of London” and “Excitable Boy.” His dark humor filled his tales with caustic sarcasm, but he also had a softer side, one that was frequently overlooked. It’s this side of Zevon that makes The Wind resonate so fully.
