It's hard to compare those works with the genius of his first 3 albums. Here's one from each of those respectively that are just brilliant.

Great choice!! always been one of my favorites. And I agree with "I'm Alive"...If you get the chance check out "Solo Acoustic Vol. 1 & Vol. 2...Thanks for posting, "The Naked Ride Home" I just gave it a quick sample and purchased it. Excellent work!

I also agree with those that have mentioned Warren Zevon and John Hiatt. Both great songwriters!
