August 28th will mark exactly one year since musician Warren Zevon was told he had inoperable lung cancer, and had three months to live. Zevon has spent much of his strength in this year putting together an album, titled "The Wind", which will be released on the 28th.

CNN's article on it can be found here.

There's a remarkable amount of talent on this project, as reported by CNN:

"All sorts of famous friends showed up. Springsteen chartered a plane between concert dates to make a session. Tom Petty, Emmylou Harris, Dwight Yoakam, John Waite and Eagles Don Henley and Timothy B. Schmit appeared.

One song, "Prison Grove," features guitarists Ry Cooder and David Lindley, with back-up vocals from Springsteen, Jackson Browne, Billy Bob Thornton and T Bone Burnett."

So, next week, if you want to pick up some new music, consider "The Wind".
