Song of the Day # 37 - Warren Zevon

 
'I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walkin' through the streets of Soho in the rain
He was lookin' for the place called Lee Ho Fooks
Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein.'

Pretty much perfect. Almost a novelty record but too assured and well played for that. An American Top Thirty record in 1978. Produced by Jackson Brown. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie play on it. I was directed to all this by Terry Hall on his show last night. So that's third week in a row for him.
