    Zee-Von. Lee Ho Fuk's restaurant, a real London eatery, kept Beef Chow Mein on the menu for decades because of this song. Lon Chaney, Jr's real first name was Creighton. Warren Zee-Von was a great Singer, Musician, Songwriter who came out of Los Angeles in the 1970's with this song and "Lawyers, Guns and Money", and a few others, and took the country by storm for a few years. He passed a few years ago from a form of cancer, so RIP Warren, and thanks for the music. We remember you.

    Warren made his last appearance on David Letterman before he died and I loved his answer to Dave's question of what he would tell everyone. At this point the public and all knew he was terminal. To the question he said Yeah, Enjoy every Sandwich.

    From what I understand, Lynyrd Skynyrd signed off on his use of the riff from "Sweet Home Alabama" for this one. Zevon went to high school in my town for a couple of years. He also wrote "Poor Poor Pitiful Me", a song that was a hit for Linda Ronstadt in 1978.

    Fun fact for you Biz" David Letterman, Paul Shaffer and Warron Vevon were very close long time friends.
    The three of them and their families used to vacation together (maybe Lake George) every year for 5-6 days.
    When Warren was dying of cancer, he did his last show on the Tonight show with Dave and Paul.
    After he died Dave did a memorial show that will bring tears to your eyes if you get to see it.

  • @jonathanlocke6404
    @jonathanlocke6404 9 месяцев назад

    I have read that he was either recording or playing live for an extended period in London at one time, and that upon leaving the studio or the venues late at night he would encounter these sort of fashionably dressed young men prowling around the night life districts. Hence the references to the tailor and the perfect hair...

  • @lisar.6670
    @lisar.6670 9 месяцев назад +1

    The movie you are referring to is 1981's #American Werewolf in London starring David Naughton {as the hairy miscreant} and Griffin Dunne {his BFF and first victim out in the middle of NO WHERE backpacking across a moon lit foggy night in England}. Check it out. Its a fun flick.

    Long rabbit hole to go down.
    You might want to read his biography, I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead-the life and times of Warren Zevon. Written by his ex-wife Crystal at his request when he knew he was dying. He told her to cover everything, good, bad and ugly so she did. The book provides context for many of his songs.

      Basically, Phil Everly had watched _Werewolf of London_ on TV, and suggested it to Zevon, as an idea for a song. Zevon and his band kicked the idea around for a couple of years, and then wrote it in about 15 minutes. 😄
