Desperados Under The Eaves Warren Zevon's 1976 self titled masterpiece is a black-hearted pop delight, shrouded in humor and irony and possessing a steely intelligence, a winning wit and an unusually sophisticated melodic sense. From the deranged romp of "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" and the tongue in cheek masochism of "Poor, Poor Pitiful Me," to the American West mythos of "Frank and Jesse James" and the starkly beautiful "Desperadoes Under the Eaves," the album rolls along with an insightful and unrestrained sense of purpose.
