I might one day feel the need to tell the story of how .... Warren Zevon had a penchant for looking at naked photographs of a young Shirley Temple...


Actually, according to his ex-wife and kids, Warren Zevon was a mean drunk, a wife beater and kind of a shitty dad who's deathbed words to his only son were along the lines of "toss out my homemade porn collection."

I still like his music but I don't feel the need to delude myself into thinking that this talent makes him some sort of Messiah.

Your acolyte Mxy, on the other hand, seems to think that popularity as a dead celebrity makes someone immune from critical discussion.
