On September 7, 2003, at age 56, singer/songwriter Warren Zevon died of a rare form of cancer. You probably know Warren's music mostly from his hit song "Werewolves of London".
Knowing he was going to die soon Zevon recorded his final album called "The Wind" which was released in 2003.
Here are a couple songs from that album:
Knockin' on Heaven's Door, a cover of an old Bob Dylan tune. I especially like the guitar in this song, as it has such a heartfelt, wailing sound. Zevon chose to record this song as he knew his time here on earth was coming to an end.
Keep Me in Your Heart, a song which expresses the feelings of a dying man to the ones he loves.
