What a class act he is. Humble, gracious and thankful. And even funny! He is a national treasure.
💯❤️🎶
Sidenote: I have always found Jackson Browne to be ridiculously goodlooking.
No question. how come Springsteen stays in the shot? Jackson seems to put up with it. Sometimes an award souonds like a funeral memorial. They can be good if practiced just a little. I keep it short. Maybe it isn't filmable but it's ok.
He is a real Dreamboat!
Ain't that the truth!
Yes!
A Legend like this only comes along once in a lifetime and we are very Blessed to have him in ours.......
I Like him!!!! Hi had Heart,Hand and "Höpt".
Jackson brown is Amazing pure poetry every thing that came out of his mouth I had the privilege of seeing him live I am grateful
One of the greatest of all time!
His voice like the clearest glass. Beautiful 🎶
Love you JB
Jackson is 55 in this video. He looked so young for years, I'd say he was just starting to age here but young for 55 (more like early 40s). One of the smartest most introspective musicians ever
Jackson Browne is one of the very best people I have shared my time on Earth with. His music and integrity have been a beacon of light that has helped me keep moving forward with a smile on my face. A great talent!
He is a regular dude. I had the very rare opportunity of meeting Jackson in his parents backyard in the early 70's in Southern California. He was playing piano out on the patio 2 or 3 doors down from where I lived. While sitting out on my patio I could hear the piano playing clearly and beautifully, so I walked down the path behind our house and saw Jackson playing. I stood outside the fenced yard looking in and before long he saw me and kind of waved me in. I didn't know who the heck it was but I strolled into the yard walked over and we started talking about the times. I was going to Cal State at the time and Jackson was thinking about going to school. I got to rattling on as I do and I said something stupid like "Hell, everybody is trying to be a musician these days." Jackson then said something very profound, he said something like "I think I'm going to make my money with this band." and I replied "Yea, that's what everybody these days think." Everybody I knew was in a band, playing music and they all thought they were going to make it. Well anyway, much to my surprise - I learned that crow really doesn't taste that bad. In the next few years I got a chance to hear Jackson play around several places in SoCal and Yes he did make it!!
WOW!! _-- Thanks for sharing the Story -- I LOVE how REAL he is -- TRUE to his HEART.. I must remember this as an Artist...
Lucky you
Amazing story, thanks for sharing!!
That’s cool, and it’s probably what you said that helped and boosted him in his beliefs that he could make it and he never gave up, wonderful story.
Great story, would love to just sit down and have a conversation with Jackson Brown, well deserving of the rock n roll hall of fame, one of the greatest musicians of our times and im among those who calll him a prophet, he speaks truth through his music
Brilliant song writer. Brilliant activist. Very few like him, a great combination of talent and conscience.
Poet, philosopher, expresses the conscience of the modern day angst. Beautiful songwriter and unusually talented man.
The man is a sage and a shaman. He wrote the soundtrack of our youth and transcribed our heartbreaks from our hearts. The song writers , song writer. Thank You for decades of amazing music and wisdom for the common man.
David Lindley's fiddle and steel guitar play elevated JBs music to another level. The level attaining heaven unmatched by others
You can count on one hand the number of writers who carried the word and feeling of the time in East LA the way Jackson does. He will always be a true Manolete of the neighborhood, where, unfortunately, few of his ethnic background were welcome. He held he passion, the pain, the joy, and love of the familia, home, and friends throughout his career, at the same time a passionate soldier for others around the world who are not as blessed as we are.
Great, profound comment.
Jackson Brown, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty and Bob Seger, are the best!!!
Agree Dylan, and add John Mellencamp, van Morrison, and John Prine. But we could go on..... we are so lucky to live in the time of these amazing songwriters
I heard Doctor My Eyes as a 16 year old...and began my love for Jackson's music...been listening ever since...i am 64 now...he makes me feel and think....be well Jackson!
I respect Browne for the fact he actually writes and performs his own music unlike the average popstar. Not only does he write music, but he really pours his heart and soul into every song. I also respect him as a human being- a caring father who in spite of going through hard times in hi personal life and is career has stood by what he says. He stands up for what he believes in, and is never hypocritical
4FabBEATLES . You could not be more right. Love what you wrote.
Still handsome as ever! Bravo Jackson on this honour! Have loved your music since the beginning and will forever!
Lately i'm being listening the Music of Jackson Browne and i'm telling you i love it.
God bless .
I appreciate a man who thanks the important people in his life's ventures.
Wonderful to see this. Went to his concert a few weeks ago - first time I got to see him and all I can say is buy the good seats and go see this master. So thankful to him for all his amazing music, philanthropy and activism. Truly a one of a kind.
My biggest regret this year, wish I would have seen him, no current US dates planned sadly
Incredible music/song-writing! I grew up listening to Jackson Brown, high school and college. His music was much of the background of my coming of age. Always loved his music and still do!
I too started to listen to Jackson Browne in high school and continue to do so. The older I get, the more his early songs mean more to me. His music has matured with me, to the point that I can hear These Days and just smile and nod and say You too,Jackson?
Mine too❤️
If you ever see Jackson in concert, he is absolutely hilarious talking in between his songs. All around superstar.
Very true! He always seems to enjoy performing!
Hey I had great seats like row 15 middle at an outside concert. He brought the enter audience to the front. Damn!
This was great. What an amazingly heart felt speaker. He keeps himself clear as glass, refracting light.
That's very deep & poetic, & he is so authentic & clear he does refract light! What a beautiful soul!! ♥️♥️
He had an amazing life and career during THE years of music with THE stars of the 60's and 70's. Laurel Canyon and beyond. Part of the soundtrack of my life.
This dude is so humble, I love and adore this man!! Great, GREAT songwriter and singer!! Loved hearing Jackson thanking Warren Zevon, them two are the most underrated rock songwriters ever!!
I believe that if some of today's musicians could remember yesterday's music. Who knows maybe there would be more heart in their lyrics. Nobody sings about love anymore. Now they sing about "me". It's so sad. Thank you Jackson Browne for what you've given us. It can't be replaced brother, it can't be replaced.
I grew up as a young kid listening to what they call "classic rock" Ofcourse it was just rock n roll back then. Jackson Browne was one of those artists I would always hear my mom playing. Now when I hear Jackson Browne, it makes me think of my childhood. Browne's music was so influential to me. Such a great man he is. Thank you Jackson for your music.
Thank you so much for your music, your soul, your heart, and who you are Jackson...
He is a great artist who uses his platform to make this world a better place for all! Thank you more power to you, JB! Keep writing and singing the music of our lives!
The single greatest influence in my life, over 43 years. My respect and admiration for Jackson as a singer-songwriter & as a man who walks the walk knows no bounds. A true American Treasure. Stephen Courts
Well said sir!
I heard Doctor My Eyes for the first time and felt immediately that it was not your standard pop drivel. Thanks Jackson for the great songs!
My favorite musician. An amazing person, a gifted person, a caring person and a throughly beautiful person, inside and out. Love Jackson Browne, that's for sure. And I hereby adopt the expression, "What is more personal than your politics?"
Hello 👋 Amy
How're you doing.
Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness
It's nice meeting you here.
I've been a fan of Jackson's music for close on 35 years, ever since I heard These Days. I stumbled across this video of his speech and bawled my eyes out. What a treasure. What a gem. Long may you run, Jackson Browne!
Idk if you'll see this but this acceptance speech gets me every time as well! 💯❤️🎶
Very few have captured the yearning of the modern American heart with more honesty.
Well said.
I have spent years, over 40+ years now, listening and loving Mr. Jackson Browne. He'll never know how he got me through way too many life events. He's absolutely amazing, and such an inspiration. I will never forget his music. I truly wish, that I could write more eloquently, yet words will not come; it's more from my heart.💕
Hello 👋 C.J
How're you doing.
Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness
It's nice meeting you here.
... within our age group (assuming here..) Jackson Browne's music during these marvelous years was like the earth under our feet... giving us support in unstable times and reassurance through and within his very true and holistic lyrics... we found comfort and connection within an difficult world we were traveling through. This acceptance speech is splendid and heartfelt. peace through music, TY
I so wish that I had grown up listening to his music as it was coming out. I don’t have that personal connection to the events and times he was writing about. I’m only 31, born in 1989. But instead I find myself listening to his music and finding so much of it still relevant to what’s happening today.
Someone like Jackson, and the community of musicians that enrich the world of us all, are like standing out in the desert at night, looking up and seeing the Milky Way for the first time. You ALL shine so brightly in the lives of those who enjoy your music. If only the whole world would stop and listen to the love and thoughts in music...... We actually all share much more than is realized.
Thank YOU, Jackson Browne for a lifetime of memories.
Amen!
Absolutely...Such an influence on so many lives. thank you Jackson Browne from a fan from Australia
Love Jackson Browne, 'Late For The Sky' is probably my favourite album of all time.Legend, well deserved award.
When was that? Before or after Pretender?
Lynn Turman Before, 'Late For The Sky' was released in 1974.
JACQUELINEGREENE Thanks...
yup... right there with Born to Run! So many parallels between the careers of those 2 men... both around the same age, starting their careers around the same time, released their albums within a year of each othe,r their 3rd albums each's masterpiece. I saw Browne in concert 3 times and Springsteen 4 times, no other artist more than twice. Remember in the fall of '74 seeing Springsteen at Union College Chapel in Schenectady (one holy experience) but despite it being the best concert I'd ever seen part of me was missing the other concert I could have gone to - a Jackson Browne concert in Providence RI. Great poets both with musical personnas that screamed genius. Love both of them . Wish I could have seen them when Bruce opened for Jackson. BTW, Bruce caught up pretty well with pretty women hanging 'round.
One of my favorites too. Very heart rending and often makes me have a good cry.
The most underrated singer songwriter of our time. A genuine soul who has always stood for what is right and lives his life defending what he believes. We need more Jackson Brownes on our world today 🎶❤️
Hello 👋 Camille
How're you doing.
Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness
It's nice meeting you here.
Jackson Brown, a beautiful human being.
I have àlways loved his music. I was surprised he didn't mention Linda Ronstadt, they worked together even lived in same house, with many others in the industry.
GiGi Johnson, thought he might mention her, too. He did a beautiful job paying homage to her in last year's documentary on her life. Glad he recognized Bonnie Raitt.
Or David Lindley
He has had the same haircut his whole life. Maybe it is the secret of his talent, like Sampson's strength. I can't imagine him any other way. I love this guy. A great talent. One of America's greatest. Frey said when he was writing Doctor My Eyes, they wanted to kill him because he played it continuously for months, sunup to sundown.
mkimmick61 so true as shown in the three hour documentary. Stephen Courts
he looks a bit like todd rundgren
Local makes good
THE BEST HAIRCUT !!
mkimmick61: How funny I just told my husband the same thing about the same haircut :)
Such a humble guy , I loved his music growing up xx Thanks Jackson B xx
I travelled from the east coast in the Appalachian's of West Virginia a very young 19 year old kid trying to chase the dreams I was writing about, many of them inspired by Jackson Browne. Probably the first of Jackson's songs that really inspired me to continue in his footsteps was on "For Everyman," a song Jackson wrote when he was 16 years old at the kitchen table, titled "For Everyman...." a song that was first recorded by other artists, and survived several edits before it emerged finally recorded by Jackson Browne in 1973 on "For Everyman." He stands alone as a composite of ambivalence about maturity, weariness of the race, fear that love may not be enough ... confusion over whether or not a lasting home can be found in a progressively nightmarish world. He also stands alone as someone who, resigned to all that, is still willing to seek out some quiet way of weathering his time's new trials. Brilliantly conceived, incomparably immediate, For Everyman truly earns its title.”
Well said sir!
My two favorite artists talking about each other. I love this!
The dvd on Jackson that came out in the 1990's, a classic that I play every Christmas for well over 20 years is a classic in our music world😊
He spoke so eloquent, ❤ Jackson Browne with his sexy good looking self ..
Thank you Jackson Browne for your amazing lyrics which have given me perspective on many of life’s issues. My son who is almost 25 will be accompanying me to your upcoming concert in Baltimore as he gave me the tickets for Christmas. He has grown up with your music and I have no doubt that after hearing you live will gain an even more profound love not just of your music but for who you are and how you continue to change the world with your lyrics. My personal favorite is Of Missing Persons. I used a quote from that song in my high school senior yearbook. It has become even more profound as I’ve gotten older. “Does it take a death to learn what a life is worth.” Thank you for all that you have brought to my life. ~B.
Fountain of Sorrow is the best song ever written
love that song!
Jackson is the ultimate cool guy...so humble and soo talented
Thank you Jackson! You have been an inspiration to all of us. Your music will be enjoyed and shared through the ages.
His music will live on forever.
My 2 favorite men/music artists on this earth are Jackson Browne and Bruce Springsteen.. the video of Bruce introducing him and Jackson's speech are a wonderful testament to the music of an era gone by.They are artists who wrote and sang from the heart and when they made it big, gave back to society not just fame and fortune!! Hard to find that today.
We thank you, Jackson. For everything.
A MUSICAL GENIUS. PERIOD.
Hello 👋 Laura
How're you doing.
Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness
It's nice meeting you here.
Jackson is my favorite of all artists! I can never get enough of him and his songs continue to have meaning to me. My most favorite song is about the roadies and his appreciation for all those behind the scene that helped him to succeed! Keep playing, writing and giving us all some peace of mind with your music!
Word"s spoken by the true celestial lyricist. It seems like every song that CJB has written, is the soundtrack of my entire life. Cannot thank him enough for giving me much inspiration to become the musician I am and will be the rest of my life. Over 50 years of true musical genius. Thank you ever so. Come back to St Petersburg and play for us as a solo show. Saw you in Tampa last month 70 minutes is just not enough for me. Lol. But much appreciated. All the best to you and your family during these Holiday's 2021. Stay safe out there and have fun. 🎄🎸🎹🎶💞🙏✌️
In 1966 I was 17 and used to go to The Paradox coffee shop in Orange, CA to see a hypnotist named George Sharp. We'd usually get wasted first and go. The opening act was a kid 16 who had a velvet voice and played guitar the way I wanted to. His name was Jackson Browne. We'd never heard of him, but he was already fantastic. We started going there mainly to hear Jackson, and the hypnotist last. I was in between high school and the draft and we all knew he would make it big. In 73 I picked up his first record and watched him progress as a songwriter and musician to greatness. I still like his first records and everything else, almost.
So cool, Toby, thank you for sharing your experience. In his song, Barricades of Heaven he writes the lyric, "Life became: The Paradox, The Bear, The Rouge et Noir. That stretch of road running to L.A." I'm just a guy in the midwest who was born in 1988, so to me these places are mythical, but you actually lived the history yourself! Cheers, sir!
Bravo! What a great intro! When writing is that thoughtful and beautiful , think more not less.
I LOVE Jackson Browne!!! His amazing albums inspired and sustain me to this day! I worked in Los Angeles and lived in the Valley in the 70's I usually never did, but one day I picked up a young man after work, who was thumbing a ride, at a freeway on ramp. He had an arm full of albums and he GAVE ME a copy of "Saturate Before Using"! It was the beginning of my love affair with Jackson Browne's incredible writing. They touched my soul and I was able to lose 20 lbs running in place and around the house to "Running On Empty" over the summer of 1977! I just finished reading the book by Linda Ronstadt, "Simple Dreams" and she credits Jackson Browne over and over and over and over and over for his mastery and gift and was equally inspired even recording some of his songs. As Glen Fry once said, "Jackson Browne has written the songs we WISH we could have written."
+Sharon Messina, cool story, thanks!
Sharon Messina A fantastic essay Sharon. Read each word & I could said it better. Thank you, Stephen Courts
That should have said: I could not have. Sorry
Sharon Messina That first album is actually self titled. Of course, even Asylum added to the confusion by adding the mistaken title to the record and CD spine. This guy is amazing and represents southern CA life with respect and brutal honesty.
Sharon Messina I'm from Burbank btw and have repped the 818 since it was the 213.
So GREAT to hear someone with command of the English language & phrases !! ~ WRITER !
Lovely literary style lineage speech. Much like Springsteen's intro. Civilised stuff, leagues apart from the TV/ movie / Big Pop awards ceremonies.
thank you Jackson for sticking with a lot of the positive things about the "hippie" movement and fighting for mother Earth!!! love love love his music and his ideas!
I’ve lived my life in the wilds of west Texas from which so many great songwriting legends have sprung and where the art is honored and revered. Jackson Browne is not only a true artist and craftsman, he is a bonafide legend and a giant. A genuine and true voice of America and the world. Thank God for his talent and his work for we are all the better for having heard it! Thank you, Mr. Browne for both you incredible music and for the guts to put your music, money and activism to work for humanity.
he is the real deal.. no one has captured the 70's and 80's like this man.. he takes me back to my first jr. high and high school dances... i got lay'd because of his tunes... lmfao.. i love you JB. Thank you for keeping your soul intact thru the vile shit in hollywood. peace to you and you passion for creating great music and memories for the world.
The vile sh in hollywood? Maybe u are watching too much entertainment tonight or the fkn kardashians?
I’m so proud that Jackson Browne grew up in my neighborhood in Southern California Highland Park. Just listen to his song The Avenues it’s a very sad song.
Hello 👋 Rachel
How're you doing.
Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness
It's nice meeting you here.
gregorman07.... His politics are a part of his music just as the keys of his piano. It drives his creativity.
Jackson Browne a singer songwriter and the greatest poet of our time. Thank you so very much for allowing us to hear your words through song.
Thanks
So articulate in songwriting and speaking
I find his music to be extremely healing and very good
Met him a few times and he was quiet and warm, so easy to get along with. Just like this person onstage. Certainly a deserved honor!
I have been a fan of his since 1972, when I first heard "Doctor My Eyes".
As have I Mark.
Me too, and fountain of sorrow. I think for me since ?1970.
Jackson Browne is one of the best! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Late For The Sky.. a great work that always takes me back to great memories..even though that album was born out of some sad & tough times for him. “A Dancer” my favorite.
Hello 👋 Laura

It's nice meeting you here.
He has a singular voice. God blessed him well.
Edit: Personally, One More For The Road.
Thank you Jackson for making this world a better place with your music. Also standing up for things in this country you felt were wrong. I have listen to you music all of my adult life fifty years. Even now i still listen as I did for the first time. Thank You.
One of my favorites of all time.
Wonderful composer and vocalist !! Love his music !!!!!!!!
such a beautiful man. His songs are awesomely wonderful.
He's my favorite political songwriter and I like his love songs, as well.
I too just LOVEJ.B. Although I've never lived near him in CA, I was honored enough to inspire that great song "rosie" You Go Clyde.
Shari Crocker. I can’t believe no one has picked up on your wry sly humor. Inspiration for “that great song Rosie”! Good one!
I just love his music and stay the load out best ever
I loved it when I saw him with his " Million dollar man" lunchbox!😂❤😊
So well spoken, just like his songs; so well written.
Thanks so much for all your music! so much love from glasgow Scotland ! for every man !Soar Alba! Ang & cally
A beautiful speech
He is one of the BEST , love his music, singing,his looks, he is so GREAT
I like the fact that he thanks who influenced his path in his childhood it was from the heart and down to earth and well deserved for his early influence
I love Jackson Browne ❤❤❤
...so sweet of Jackson to acknowledge Little Feat whom the RRHOF have greviously overlooked.
@Mike B Warren Zevon, Lowell George or Randy Newman seem to me like they would be bemused by the absurdity of the RRHOF...
🥀Amazing Speach! It's now 2021 and we're still listening to your music. You were truly Blessed being raised in a home with music I know how you feel I was raised into music by my Dad he's been inducted into the Country music hall of and honor in Macon, Ga in 1987 singer song writer. I listen to all kinds of music and I believe in your words. God Bless you and thank you for your life n love in the music industry 🥀✌🥀☝️
Hello 👋 Denise
How're you doing.
Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness
It's nice meeting you here.
Obviously one of our greatest treasures in American music is Mr. Jackson Browne. I love the simple pure folk of his first record, naked emotion, then on to "For Everyman" David Lindley's playing, then the sledgehammer of "Late For The Sky" wonderful harmonies, then on to many more classics "Sky Blue And Black", "Looking East" etc. Bottom line, , , Jackson thank you for your wonderful songwriting, sometimes your songs just plain hurt but it's so worth it to experience your truth.
Interesting to hear from someone that helped so many in the business.
Jackson, J.D. , Don & Glen are the California sound....
I'm agreeing with alot of these comments--but I think Dan Fogelberg belongs in here as well!!! Sincerely, BobbyK
good hearted guy...
Brilliant Jackson Browne! 😄❤️
JB YOU SAVED MY LIFE
Mind, body and heart..all beautiful and joy giving..Live Well and for Many More years, Jackson.
The song playing in the background is called Tender Is The Night from his album Lawyers In Love
A beautiful soul
Jackson Browne is a wonderful songwriter,a great songwriter...words are powerful,, throughout his career his words/lyrics had the power to elevate you....they also had the power to break your heart. He spoke. of the soul of his music,for me a lot of that soul was the influence and musical talent of David Lindley.
