I too a Zevon fan. For me, anything from Life’ll Kill Ya can make is the list. Sad though in its concept.
Another favorite where almost any cut can be can be on the list: Boz Scaggs Greatest Hits Live. His jazzy rock fusion style and voice never better in these well recorded, excellent performances.
Hidden Gems in Classic Rock Albums
Please share songs you love that get overlooked on classic albums that most consider among the best ever--for example, those that regularly appear on the Rolling Stone top 100 list. Last weekend I played "Hotel California" all the way through and was really digging "Try and Love Again". Can't get it out of my head. Oddly, a Randy Meisner tune with great bass guitar and unique bass drum work by Don Henley--pumping it twice rather than once not sure why. There is some really great stabbing guitar lines, awesome rhythm guitar licks and a nice lead guitar. As always, great harmony vocals to boot. A really great song that seems to fly under the radar because it is on an LP that has so many "hits" and really great songs.
