    For all his sour wit, however, Zevon remians a musical craftsman who's happy to leave the lyrics to others. [July 2002, p.102]

    Finds Zevon reverting to a fuller, plumper, back-to-the-'80s sound. [July 2002, p.122]

    For all My Ride's Here's inconsistency, it's blessed by Zevon, who retains one of the most distinctive and appealing vocal/lyrical cadences in rock 'n' roll.

    This follow-up isn't as clever or as caustic [As 2000's Life'll Kill Ya], but at least Zevon's now smiling as he goes his twisted way. [Jun/Jul 2002, p.116]

    Zevon, so frequently great, should know better.

    For the most part My Ride's Here is a misfire from an artist capable of much better work.

    More genius from the underappreciated Mr. Zevon. Really, who else would find a rhyme for seraphim, and get Letterman to guest, on the same More genius from the underappreciated Mr. Zevon. Really, who else would find a rhyme for seraphim, and get Letterman to guest, on the same album? Wish I would have bought it long ago and he could have spent the royalty $$ himself.… Full Review »
