Thanks for a great article. I watched the show with Warren Zevon, and couldn't break away. I have been a fan of Mr. Letterman for decades, enjoying his skill as a interviewer and also as a creative comedian. He is certainly the best in the business in both categories.
Mr. Zevon shows similar high skill levels in his music as well as his own comedic mind. It was refreshing to see Mr. Letterman show his friendship and appreciation to Mr. Zevon, and allow Mr. Zevon the opportunity to show his both to Letterman and to his music fans everywhere.
I can't imagine any other TV personalities who could match Mr. Letterman's ability to do a program like that. Most wouldn't even try, or their producers wouldn't let them (wisely).
Mr. Zevon's music will live for a long time.
p>Regards, br> -- Richard Renken /p>This article brought just the right light on that incredible Farewell: Warren Zevon Late Night Show. Warren Zevon is not on my play list. David Letterman is. I was deeply moved by the courage both of these guys displayed on that program. Paul Beston captured in words better than I could explain what a truly amazing event this show was. It was a first in TV in my experience and it left a lasting impact on me.
