					<description><![CDATA[I don't usually write in memoir, but my dad's retirement, at the age of 88, made me think about how the generations look differently at the concept, and whether it's okay to retire 30 years before your father. Here, then, is a conversation full of questions and received wisdom ... ]]></description>

Zevon is among a very select group of artists who left us with great death albums. His disc, The Wind, was released [&#8230;]]]></description>
