Not a huge fan of GG Allin but the tragic character of the, "one man circus of rock's being extreme for fame club" proves he does have a soul, and pulls off a nice version of this Warren Zevon classic.
From Wiki....
Allin is best remembered for his notorious live performances that typically featured wildly transgressive acts such as Allin defecating and urinating onstage, rolling in feces and often consuming excrement (coprophagia), committing self-injury, performing naked, taunting people to perform fellatio on him, and committing violent actions toward the audience—often doing many of these things more or less simultaneously. Although more notorious for his stage antics than for his wide body of music, he recorded prolifically, not only in the punk rock genre, but also in spoken word, country and Rolling Stones-influenced rock. Though he has a small, devoted cult following, Allin's music, often poorly recorded, has received mostly negative reviews from critics.
personal note; I remember being on a simultaneous tour in front of his act which was rumored to be the 'tour GG would kill himself on stage'. Never happened.
Although, he did die of an overdose years later.
