Warren Zevon
Warren Zevon did not want to get treated for his cancer if it might keep him from making music.  So instead he started to make his final album, titled The Wind. He had a lot of friends who helped him make the album.  These friends included Bruce Springsteen, Don Henley, Jackson Browne, Timothy B. Schmit, Joe Walsh, David Lindley, Billy Bob Thornton, Emmylou Harris, Tom Petty, Dwight Yoakam, and others.
