And what's the deal on "Warren Zevon" in 1965? He had one minor hit (as a duo) in '66 and didn't make a name for himself until '75...

Nice that someone mentioned MY FAV.....the great legend Warren Zevon. Someone else mentioned 1965, I was talking about his whole superb and wonderous career. Most remember his "Werewolves of London" which was over-played. I got tired of hearing that because it was just a throwaway novelty song. The novelty-type songs were BIG back then and made many people the BIG bucks.
......He had some more substantial songs (not hits). My personal FAV was, "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" ........That one was way COOL, just unique and extraordinary. Next, I would rate, "Send Lawyers, Guns,
and Money". Next, "He's Just an Excitable Boy". Next, "Poor, Poor, Pitiful, Me". Next, "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead".
.......They all have "catchy titles".
