#50 Nighttime In The Switching Yard -- Warren Zevon (1978)



The late Warren Zevon was such a master of song lyrics that I feel I need to apologize to him for picking this particular song, which probably has less in the way of lyrics than any other song he’s written. It’s got an unbelievably great hook, though, and if you play it loud enough you’re practically guaranteed to get people out on the dance floor. I’ve never heard a rock band cover this, and can’t quite figure out why. I’m sure Warren wouldn’t mind.
