Here’s a fun one limitles
It was the last song Zevon played on Zevon’s famous Letterman appearance - Zevon knew then he would soon be dead from terminal lung cancer. Letterman was a huge Zevon fanIn 1973, American musician Warren Zevon met David Lindell in Sitges, Catalonia, where Lindell operated a bar named "The Dubliner" after working as a mercenary in Africa. Inspired by Lindell's stories of his career as a mercenary, Zevon decided to collaborate with him in making a song about a left-wing mercenary.
As a kid I never understood the Patty Hearst reference at the end. Love it now.
Shout out to all the mercenaries out there

I was a huge Letterman guy at the time and I just happened to catch Zevon’s last appearance. Zevon had been handed his terminal diagnosis and Letterman knew it How was this going to play out, I wondered?
What a line. The episode was transcendent.sitting beside Letterman, he projected a feeling of acceptance and understanding, with a touch of humor.
"First of all," Zevon said on the show, "let me say that I might have made a tactical error in not going to a physician for 20 years. It was one of those phobias that really didn't pay off."
“Few were as committed to their cynicism.” Outlaws, mercenaries and sociopaths were his inspiration. Famously, Zevon was a world class alcoholic, drug abuser and prick but he played with and was loved by a who’s who of his era. He played with or had appearances by the like of the Eagles, Police, Everly Brothers, Springsteen, Linda Ronstadt, Waddy Wachtel, Dylan, Neil Young, REM, Jerry Garcia, Buckingham & Nicks etc etc
