I really have to come up with one from each of these guys for my solo stuff. I keep going to other stuff to add. Anyone got any suggestions of some obscure tune that is good from these guys that I might not be familiar with?

Ray Davies just came out with a new CD. I only heard one song and it was pretty "kink"ish.

Hey we found a Zevon fan here! Nice to see the Ovations, I know Ray always used Ovations. But I never saw Warren playing one before. Nice PEZ

I'm not sure what would be obscure but:

Desperados Under the Eaves - Zevon

Something from either of the following:
Preservation Act I and Act II - Kinks
Muswell Hillbillies - Kinks

"My Old Man" by Nobby Clegg and the Civilians. That's an obscure song and sounds a bit like the Kinks..lol

I have the entire Zevon concert that clip is from. It was originally released on laser-disc (rember those) in the early 80's and some guy was selling DVD copies on ebay. As far as I can tell Zevon used Custom Legends almost exclusively for his live shows. I finally got to see him solo in June 2000 and he'd switched to what appeared to be custom-shop Gibson J185's. Which sounded pretty average.

We're just about to put "Tenderness on The Block" into our set.

That 12 would be nice to match my 1719 Custom Legend
