For me, it's Desperados Under the Eaves. Though Carmelita is a close second.

"Lawyers, Guns, and Money", but I like so many of his songs.

"Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner".  If in a dark mood, "Life'll Kill Ya".

Going with Lawyers, Guns and Money.  The E36 M3 has hit the fan.

Werewolves of London. Easy pick, but whatever, I dig it.

So, so, so thankful I got to see him in concert before he left us. In no particular order and often depends on my level of self-loathing.

Play It All Night Long (live version)

Boom Boom Mancini

Yeah, I’m not terribly creative... I have to go with Lawyers, Guns and Money too. (Dad, get me out of this!).

 

It’s certainly not The Envoy

It was Mr. Bad Example, but for the past several months Splendid Isolation has been rather appropriate...

There are so many.... 'Keep Me In Your Heart' is what I've told my wife to play at my funeral.  'She's Too Good For Me' when I live in the past and am angry with myself for how I treated people in the past.

Werewolfs, Lawyers, Poor, Poor Pitiful me  ... All of em!

Just one fav ... can't do it

Too darned many to choose from, but I am particularly fond of The Indifference of Heaven, Roll With The Punches, and They Moved the Moon.

I think it’s easier to pick a favorite album, which would be Mutineer.

 

Edit:  really wish I’d seen him in person before he passed away.  He was a great songwriter.

For some reason, I kept coming up with Levon Helm songs. I used to have whichever album had the Boob Boon Mancini song on it back in the late 80's. Don't think I've listened to many Warren songs since.

Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner, and Lawyers, Guns and Money are good.

The following video is a nice version and story.

I like most of his stuff, so hard to pick a favorite.

Detox Mansion rates pretty high.

Hard to pick, but I have to give props to Hindu Love Gods- basically, REM, minus Stipe, plus Zevon. Good stuff for fans

A year ago I wouldn't have known who he was. I don't recall where I heard him first, probably just Werewolves on the radio. I like the albums I've listened to since then, but I have to be in the right mood.

Roland the headless Thompson gunner, my E36 M3s ducked up, lawyers guns and money. I like listening to him but I honestly don't know many songs by name
