  • There are many songs named "Cocaine Blues"; this is a take with additional verses on the Reverend Gary Davis's 8-bar blues song which Davis claimed to have learned pre-World War I. Jackson Browne recorded the song on 1977's Running on Empty and his version owed much to Dave Van Ronk and Hoyt Axton c. 1963. This performance at Town Hall, 123 W. 43rd Street, NYC, on 14 December 2015, for John Henry's Friends: The First Annual concert Benefiting the Keswell School for Autism. This was Jackson Browne's first Town Hall performance.

    I found this the day after Thanksgiving looking for the end note commentary of David Lindley from the version recorded on Running on Empty. "It takes a clear mind to *make* it". I got an offer to refurbish whiskey barrels for a rum distiller who wants to get into that. This is wonderful! And I have my misgivings about contributing to the production of an intoxicating liquid, but the crafting is honest. Honorable even. I love both these guys. Wished I were there. I did get to see Jackson play Red Rocks in 1978. I was just a kid. I had two literary buddies with me who were also pretty young. One published a novel later. The other owns a small town newspaper.

      generally speaking, it's not having what you want that makes us happy... it's enjoying what we have... like friends... and family 👪
