Jackson Browne is a sort of Warren Zevon-lite. Friends and collaborators, Browne had the massive commercial success, while Zevon's darker, more sardonic stuff played to a cult audience, including me. This was recorded by Browne around the time of Zevon's 2003 death from cancer, aged 53. The Devil wants his own beside him. The extended Zevon 12-string version, on Learning To Flich is superior musically - Zevon studied with Stravinsky - but not as funky as this. Mr Browne seldom puts a foot wrong. In this life, anyway.
