Was fortunate enough to play keyboards for Jackson at a WOMAD gig in 1999 and spent a week in rehearsals with him. One of the nicest people I've met in the industry. My wife was pregnant at the time and a few weeks later we received a parcel of baby clothes from Jackson with a letter that started "I was walking past a shop in Barcelona when I thought of you guys...". So, not just a legendary musician and songwriter but a lovely human being.
Thanks you SO much for sharing this wonderful story!
Such a nice memory.
Beautiful story 9f an American treasure!
Grumpy, these are the stories that make performers true legends, their genuine human kindness via stories like yours. Thanks for sharing and that baby is almost 25 yrs old, god bless you and Jackson.
Great story.
No drum machine. No auto tune. No back up dancers flailing about. Just pure talent.
Well, all good points. 60's 70's and 80's.
The music biz was DIFFERENT in the 70s, for sure...........
Pure talent Tried to explain why we went to so many live performances to the younger generation...this is why
@@questioneverything1682That’s why they made Spinal Tap.
Browne’s father was an American serviceman stationed in Germany, that’s how Jackson happened to be born there. I’ve always loved his music. I’m glad that you enjoyed it.
Thanks for another great reaction.
I'm 74 yrs old, and from my perspective it's a sobering eye-opener that young peeps today have never heard of Jackson Browne. I'm very glad you made this video. He's a true icon.
Same here, Mike. I'm also 74 and was lucky to have seen Jackson in concert twice. We loved our music from 1960-85. Young people missed out on the best generation of music.
I so agree believe it or not a friend passed away and his wife my high school friend gave me a like new 8 track and a box of tapes. Panasonic.
They dont know Jackson Browne but they all the Ice Spice songs🙄
@@alfredmiles6638 I've never heard of Ice Spice, so I guess the youngsters would say we're even.
❤about that !!!
Glenn Frey lived up stairs from him in the '70s. Said Jackson Brown would get up early in the morning and spend hours on the first 8 bars of a new song, Stop for a cup of tea and spend more hours on the second eight bars. A true perfectionist and shows up in every song he ever wrote.
Glenn, Don Henley, Linda Ronstdaht and Jackson were all friends
They lived in Laurel Canyon right!
@@denisedouglas6522 I think you're right.
JD Souther lived there too, I believe. Can you imagine the music from that house!?
This was a hit SEVERAL decades ago and this old lady still remembers every word of the lyrics. It was huge.
Putting the emphasis on "several" made me feel much younger than my 70 years, but holy ****, that was over 40 years ago......yikes!
Like you, I still remembered every word. A sure sign of a great song!
@@CharCanuck14 I'm right there with y'all. Never even saw me getting older. 🤣🤣
@@janflewelling6277 Thumbs up Jan! I think my secret is occasionally acting a little immature, which can be a great imaginary wrinkle & grey hair remover.
I tell my kids that if I ever stop laughing at farts, then I'm officially old.
Cheers from Canada
He is singing in appreciation for the roadies who set up and tear down for the band!
@@CharCanuck14 Bet I could still sing along with this whole album. @ 62
Jackson Browne was born in Germany.
His parents were military
He is total American and he is so awesome..Love everything he has put out..Thanks for featuring him.
Well said, fan in UK
Total American and So Cal through and though.....
So agree, we are starving for real music. Jackson Browne is a legend; a singer, songwriter and musician. He represented our generation well. We never thought this kind of music would end!
This was back when music was music.
Jackson Browne is one of the greatest singer/songwriters hands down. Always been one of my favorites!!
The pretender is my favorite.
As a former Roadie, this is our Anthem. Search out the story behind the falsetto, it’s awesome. The first time they performed this Jackson had no idea that was coming, and we loved it!
Thank you for your service!
Was that the cut that made the album? Because it did sound like he was laughing a little when he came back in.
All you Roadies: This one’s for you! So very nice to hear his tribute to you!
Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs. These guys grew up as teenagers in the Sixties listening to Doo Wop. And it was a great tribute.
@@kellyalves756Nope different cut. This one isn't as polished as the one that did make it on vinyl. Still good tho!
He has sung the soundtrack of my life. A wordsmith, poet, musician--I feel sorry for those who haven’t enjoyed his music.
Absolutely, this song is over 40 years old and I still knew all the words! Love it!
I still have my Running On Empty vinyl. It's cherished as much now as it was the 1st time I played it. I was married in 1976 the year before it's release. My late wife and I knew the lyrics for every song. Thanks for this.
Good God I’m glad I grew up in the 70’s! So happy to see people today embracing the talent & heart that went into preforming then . I wish we could get back to that too!
I agree the 70’s was the best music era!!
I agree!! The best!
For years, David Lindley was Jackson Browne's secret sauce. Both were/are geniuses, and they made music and memories that I will never forget.
Rosemary Butler, one of the finest backup singers EVER! Listen to her on Running on Empty. She OWNS that song. Wouldn’t be the same without her!
ty
Rose on “won’t you stay” awesome!!
One of the most beautiful voices ever, rosemary could sing the phonebook
Love that song too.
Real good feel good music
This is a song about life on a concert tour. His homage to the roadies (stage crew) at the beginning recognizes those unknown folks who set up and strike the stage for the performances. Later he also acknowledges the drivers of the trucks and buses. Too many fans don’t realize the dozens of people it takes to tour a show. Kudos to JB for saluting those in the shadows. I managed a venue for 20 years, and yes, Jackson did perform there and do this song as an encore.
Saw him mid 80's and the roadies came out and sang a verse of Stay.....
I'm glad it was finally understood that this song was homage and thanks to the road crew and everyone else involved in getting from one venue to the next and setting everything up then striking it.
Like Bob Seger's Turn the Page, and On the Road Again 😀
I never roadied for a band, but I worked a few clubs here an there. Nobody does it for the money, to hear a performer thank the people that make it all possible in such a straight-forward and humble way just kills me. It's the best "Thank You" anyone has ever received.
My oldest son was Little Feat's guitar tech for about 10 years and worked their annual Ramble on the Island fan fest a few times. Jackson was there one year, and my son got to meet him. I have a pic of the two of them. My son said he's a really nice, down to earth guy. 😊✌️
Jackson is truly one of the great wordsmiths of all time.....his greatest song lyrically is The Pretender !!!!!
“Thought true love should have been a contender… “. How different things could have been😢 Heartrending song.
My husband loves The Pretender over all JB songs.
@@jeremychadwick900 My gravestone is gonna read ..." I wanna be a happy idiot "...
The loadout was written by Jackson the song Stay was written by Maurice Williams and done in the 60s by Maurice Williams & the zodiacs it was also covered by Frankie Valli in the 70s a lot of radio stations would not play both of them together because of the length so they would split them up which totally ruined the whole atmosphere and purpose of the two songs together
I’ll be 71 this month. So Grateful I was born to witness all the music I did. Jackson Co-Wrote “Take it Easy” for the Eagles. All these artists were Singer/Songwriters and Loved to Perform Live! I saw Jackson Live, along with Linda Ronstadt, Nicolette Larson, and Bonny Raite Live once. Incredible for them to perform at a Benefit for Lowell Thomas. (Little Feet), to raise money for his wife and children.
My FAVORITE Song by Jackson Browne is “The Pretender.” Please just put some phones on and listen to that song…It’s Beautifully Honest!!! And that’s who Jackson Browne is! ❤ Nice Job Brother! I liked AND Subscribed! 🙌👍
The joys of a good sound system, and some of the best music ever written.
Those were the days!
The Pretender is a close second to this for me.
I still enjoy it.@@TristanandIsolt
@@betsysmith4831 What's not to enjoy. Jackson Brown is excellent.
Absolutely. @@TristanandIsolt
Jackson Browne is an amazing person!!! He gave Stevie Ray Vaughan free time recording their first album. Texas Flood album is now inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame ❤️
Then when tragedy struck, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt and Stevie Wonder sang Amazing Grace at Stevie Ray’s graveside ceremony ❤️😢❤️😢
I forgot about the free studio time Jackson gave SRV.
What an amazing send off.
WOW!
Dude, he"s in the rock and roll hall of fame. He's extremely famous as a songwriter, ranked 37 historically by Rolling Stone (out of the top 500). He's the real deal. He grew up in California, just happens to have been born in Germany. Growing up in boring semi-rural Ohio was very difficult and Jackson helped me get through it. He is unique in being one of a VERY small number of people to have an album preserved in the special collection of the Library of Congress. That. amazing.
Not every generation knows this, so back off.
I saw Jackson a few times at Blossom Music Center in the late 70s and early 80s.
He's one of my heroes.
He wrote Doctor my Eyes when he was 16. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Jackson Browne was the soundtrack of my life growing up in the 70s and 80s in California. He is such a prolific singer/songwriter. I will sound old when I say this, but they don't make them like this anymore, LOL. Jackson Browne's song lyrics are so deep, poetic, poignant, and meaningful. Listen to the Pretender, Late for the Sky, Running on Empty, These days (which he wrote at 16 years old), For Everyman, After the Deluge, For a Dancer... etc. He wrote a song called "The Rebel Jesus" that not many know but it really hits home in my opinion. Jackson is still going strong at 72 years old. His music was used in the movie directed by George Clooney, starring Ben Affleck called the Tender Bar. I appreciated your reaction. :)
If you are saying you are jealous of the 70's , go ahead say it. Just saying those of us of that era we were so blessed. We do need you young people to hear, and pass it on. God bless!
This song comes from the album Running on Empty...the entire album is about life on the road, and was recorded in hotel rooms, on a bus, and live....it is really an incredible album to listen to.
My college years...brings a tear....such REAL lyrics and professional playing.......just as great now as it was nearly 50 yrs ago......
I grew up in LA in and around Laurel canyon. Jackson was part of the music and clubs growing up and he speaks with male perspective that has so much compassion and understanding. I think he had 4 or 5 albums with radio hits on each before he came back with this live album . Put him back on top again. The first time I saw him was at the troubadour, been a fan ever since. He was on tour this year and played Eugene Oregon where I live now. . Great show great artist
Growing up in L.A. (area) in those times was a very special experience that will never come again. Truly, you had to be there.
I am soooo glad I grew up in this era!! "Artists" today only have a tiny fraction of the talent the artists of the 60s, 70s, 80s had (and still have in some cases)!
I’m 67 years old and Jackson has been my favorite artist since I first heard him back in ‘72. He sounds every bit as good live now as he did back then. His ticket prices are still reasonable and he gives his fans first access when his tickets go on sale. Do yourself a favor and go see him live, his fans are both young and old because we old folks passed the love of his music on to our kids.
Same, born 57, our generation music BOSS
Absolutely!
Rebel Jesus blows me away.
I'm 65 and still have this album and know all the words😂 Damn, concerts were so much fun.
The album version was recorded in my hometown. The venue is called Meriwether Post Pavilion, in Columbia, M.D.
And very affordable!!!❤
I paid $3.50 to see Fleetwood Mac...
@@johnseals4900 No kidding!! I remember when tix were priced at $5.50, 6.50 and 7.50. That's how broke college students were able to see all the cool bands. (We were dismayed when Dylan and The Band came to town and charged $10!! But we coughed it up and it was worth it.) I know times have changed and inflation is real, but Geez - hundreds of $$$ for a ticket to anything - even the sh*t seats - is ridiculous.
@@johnoneal1234 I paid $1.01 as a high school senior to see about seven rock bands at our local football stadium back in the early 70's. An all day charity rock concert. Oh, the memories!
Concerts, even for the biggest bands or artists were affordable back then even if you had to ask your parents for a bit of money or had to work a fast food job to earn your own concert money which I did both as a teen. They were worth every "penny" spent.
I wanted to see the Rolling Stones the last time they were here a number of years before Charlie Watts passed away but I just couldn't justify the astronomical ticket prices even though they are one of my all time favorite bands and I could afford a ticket. Even so, since the stadium is in a business district where I work, I left my job at closing time and went and sat on a cement wall outside the stadium and heard every minute of the concert as if I was inside the stadium. And, I could also see the jumbotron.
And, when passerby's asked what was happening at the stadium that night when the parking lot started filling up, many people joined me on that wall for the whole concert. We had a blast. Best money I never had to spend on a concert! lol. Another great memory. RIP Charlie.
Lol...when I hear you had never heard of CSN&Y or Jackson Brown makes this old lady feel even older. The golden part if being old is I was there seeing all the folk n rock n roll greats in concert. Saw Jackson, CSN&Y and so many of the pioneers of 60s and 70s. As I've gotten older I've stayed as current as possible continuing to discover new and current music but sometimes I just have to listen to these artists of the 60s and 70s who turned me onto the incredible freedom and joy only music brings. In appreciation.🙏👏👏👏
Saw Jackson in concert last year. He was fantastic. Concert scheduled to start at 8:00 pm. At 7:59 pm he started singing and playing Somebody’s Baby. Ready to go. Stragglers missed out.
These two songs should ALWAYS be played back-to-back, and should NEVER be separated!
We had a local classic rock radio station that would only play the "Stay" part. They must have gotten some complaints because they switched to the full version in short order.
Absolutely!
Jackson Browne is seriously underrated. He has so many great songs that you just can't help listening to over and over.
Under-rated by whom?
He's never been underrated.😂
He was and is never underrated. He is a living legend
No! No more "underrated"! Enough with this nonsense! 🤦🏿♀️
He started his intro and tears welled up in my eyes, happy ones. I was a young military wife living in Germany when one of "the guys" brought his Jackson Browne live cassette to our apartment on a Friday night. I got a copy and played it over and over! He is awesome! Thank you for bringing up those memories:)
Jackson Brown was a really underrated musician and song writer. If it wasn't for him we probably wouldn't have heard of the Eagles. He was friends with linda ronstadt who he introduced the eagles to. Which gave the Eagles the break.
What a magical time to grow up. Musicians of this time really put their heart and soul into their music. I have probably been to over 200 concerts from 1972 through the 80s and I cherrish every moment. What amazing time for Music.
Just a FYI. Jackson Browne sang at Stevie Ray Vaughan's funeral. He always sang this song as last song of the night. He was born in Germany because his dad was in the military 🪖. RiP David he passed away March 2023.
I didn't know that. I am, and will always be, heartbroken 💔 over the loss of Stevie Ray
@@kristadawson9859 Among the other mourners were Stevie Wonder, Buddy Guy, Dr. John, ZZ Top, Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, and Nile Rodgers. Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, and Stevie Wonder sang "Amazing Grace.
Who passed away in 2023? I thought Brown was still with us.
@TheDivayenta David Lindley, one who played guitar sounded like slide guitar on his lap, he sang the high notes towards the end. Jackson is still with us and still touring.
"He was born in Germany because his dad was in the military 🪖."
My dad was in the military, but I wasn't born in Germany?😜
My favorite Jackson Browne song is The Pretender. God it just stops me in my tracks everytime. It's like my whole life flashes before me in time. Powerful song.
This album was my favorite Christmas gift in the 7th grade. I listened to this over and over. Jackson Browne is a legend.
Sadly David Lindley left us earlier this year. He played the slide guitar and falsetto on Stay. Awesome musician. The entire Running On Empty album was recorded live, some on stage, on the bus, in motel rooms. His best work in my opinion
Lindley was the best string player full stop. One of the funniest guys I've ever see live also.
Lindley's slide playing was just incredible. My favorite Browne albums are still his first three and Lindley played on all of them.
I thought way back when i first heard this song on the radio in the late 70's that the bit with Lindley singing was actually Frankie Valli. I wonder if Lindley was channeling Frankie a little bit and trying to sound like him?
This tour was my first concert! Amazing Rosemary Butler on vocals too...❤🎶🎵
Oh man, I didn’t know he passed 😢. I’ve always felt Lindsey was one of the most underrated slide players ever. And his tone was always stunning. What a loss
Jackson was integral in getting SRV a recording contract. He attended Montreux in '82 when Stevie was booed by many in the audience. Jackson extended an invitation to Stevie to use his recording studio. Thus a huge part of history to both rock and blues!
I love Jackson Brown and was fortunate to see him in concert in a small venue back in the day. For additional blue eyed soul music, check out Dan Fogelberg, I saw him in concert at Red Rocks and I felt like he was singing directly to me. Amazing siger/songwriter.
Jackson Browne was one of David Geffin's first fabulous artists on his Asylum label in the early 1970s; his first real radio hit was "Doctor My Eyes." He started to write "Take It Easy" and couldn't finish it, and his upstairs neighbor Glenn Frey finished it and had the Eagles first hit record with it. He's worth checking out and investing some time listening to; he's tied to dozens of other rock stars careers.
David Lindley is a legendary guitarist in the LA scene famed for playing slide guitar on an old-fashioned lap-steel guitar. He also sang the high soprano part(as falsetto) that girl sings(in the video) on the recorded version of "The Loadout/Stay" from Jackson's best-selling "Running On Empty" album from 1979. His happiness at blending "The Loadout" with Stay" is that "Stay" is an old R&B classic that everyone of his era knew and loved(it was a favorite for slow dancing at high school dances).
And it might seem that all these people knew each other; well, they did. Jackson helped many great artists get started. If you check out old music, it will enrich your whole life, and will help you to relate to older people if you're familiar with their music - it helps you get your toe in the door.
Jackson Brown is in a class by himself...David Lindley is a multi-talented musician and eccentric and was Browns go-to guitarist for years..this was from an Era where artists actually had to have the goods to perform live without digital crutches and scantily clad dancers,etc. It's called talent and it takes years of hard work and dedication to perfect their craft ..it was a different time indeed.
Well said
There are many talented singer/songwriters but not so many who can combine a melody and the lyrics and create a gobsmackingly great song that sounds so fresh and remains relevant down the decades.
Dave passed away. Man we loved him and his rock band, El Rayo X.
Jackson Browne is one of my all time favs. The Pretender, Running On Empty, Doctor My Eyes, Lives in the Balance all great songs.
Oh yeah. 100% agree.
I agree 100%!
Also, "Somebody's Baby". Great song!
Let's add Late for the Sky, Here Come Those Tears Again, Linda Paloma.
Being married to a professional musician & having had our own band, this song is close to my heart. I love the way he thanks his road crew in the first 1/2 of the song. Crews do so much & without them it would be almost impossible m e to put on a good concert. Speaking from experience setting up & taking the sets is a tough, mostly thankless job, however necessary to the bands success. This song was wonderful when I first heard it when it first came out & still is. Thank you, James, for such wonderful music. May you rest in peace. ❤
I literally listened to this album every night for 2 years when I was in college. So much great content from this artist over the years.
Jackson Browne hung around with JD Souther and the early Eagles members back in the day. Loads and loads of talent there.
Jackson Browne is one of the most important voices of my youth. His music and poetry have been a part of my musical life from the very early 70's and remains in my playlists to this day. I saw him live in Ann Arbor on this tour for Running on Empty. Of the many, many concerts I have attended, he is the only one who beat the house lights - after 3 encores and the lights came up, audience was still on their feet, he came back out one more time. Epic, so memorable. A highlight. So great to hear David Lindley again.
Had the running on empty album and it was on my stereo and on repeat. Loved it
@@cathyforte5609 I remember stereo - and vinyl. Kept stacks of albums in milk crates. Many, many hours playing favorites beginning to end . (Keep the needle clean)! 🎶🎶🎶
I saw him in Charlottesville VA on the Running on Empty Tour. I think it was the first time I saw Leland Sklar on bass. So many incredible musicians have played with Jackson, and with Leland.
R.I.P. David Lindley
David Lindley on the dobro and singing falsetto. He was a very close friend of Jackson's for many years, and unfortunately, passed away a few months ago. I was lucky enough to see this tour in person, and I've seen JB at least four or five times on other tours. My favorite performer of all time, along with Bonnie Raitt--another of his good friends.
Thanks.
I've wondered who this dude was.
I've seen Jackson & Bonnie but never got the chance to see David :-(
David was brilliant......a man who could play anything with strings!
So glad you enjoyed hearing Jackson Browne! His music has been a huge part of my life. My parents named me Jamaica after Jackson’s song “Jamaica, Say You Will.”
(I would almost bet you know his song “Running on Empty.” It was used in the movie, “Forrest Gump”.)
This song brings back so many memories. It was an experience to see Brown perform this live. one of the best show I ever saw, everybody was feeling that raw energy of that flawed live performance you spoke of. Your reaction is awesome.
And I agree his music has the feeling of going to musical church, like I grew up in.
I hope you continue to explore the Jackson Browne catalog. He is a truly gifted songwriter and musician.
It doesn't matter who you are,where you live or what you do. Music brings us together.
yes!
I’m a Brit who discovered Jackson nearly 35 years ago. The Lindsey slide work drew me in before I realised how good Jackson was. At one time I wanted to visit the states just to see him live but luckily he came to London where I saw him in the early 90’s. I’m 77 now and this still blows me away. Keep up the good work. P.s. I have watched you with this and Pink Floyd quite a few times.
David Lindley was one of the most gifted musicians in American music history. I don't think there was a stringed instrument he couldn't play, and play brilliantly.
Listening to Jackson Browne and these songs really takes me back in time to precious memories. If I could just go back to 1977 - 1978 knowing what I know now, I would make better decisions and do things so differently. Thanks for the music & reminding me of some of the best times in my life listening to Jackson Browne!
Jackson Browne started his career writing songs for other artists such as the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (he was briefly a member in 1966) & the Eagles (Browne co-wrote "Take It Easy"). But in the 70's he started recording his own songs. He had a lot of hits 70's-80's such as "Doctor, My Eyes", "Rock Me on the Water", "Here Come Those Tears Again", "The Pretender", "Running on Empty", "Somebody's Baby", "Tender Is The Night" etc.
His version of Gregg Allman's "These Days" is perfection. And "Late for The Sky" is (IMO) his best album.
all so great!
This came out when I was 18 bartending at The Arlington Square Club. It was on the Jukebox and played all the time. I never did get tired of hearing it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I worked for Jackson in Pittsburgh as a local crew member for the venue. At 2pm he and his band did the best sound check I ever heard. They did Doctor My Eyes and it was as good as you would have expected at 9 at night.
The load out was his dedication to his crew. And God bless him I've only ever heard of one other performer doing that and that was Lemmy from Motorhead with We Are The Road Crew.
And they both did it for the same reason. Performers can't do shit without a professional crew that cares more about the music and the show than the money. We do it for the love..... But we ain't above the money LMFAO!
As a 65 year old subscriber, I love that you are reacting to Jackson Browne! He is still an amazing performer in person and one of the best song writers of any era. I hope that you will react to more of his music. Thanks for what you do, it's much appreciated!
Give a serious listen to BEFORE THE DELUGE
Jackson Browne is an artist that started back in the time were lyrics were very important to the masses. He was like a folk singer and his fans loved his simplistic lyrics that made the world understand. This was back at the beginning of the 1970’s
Simplistic lyrics? I dont think so. He writes like he is a poet. Check Further On. Lives in the balance. Fountain of sorrow. Crow on the cradle
Folk artist...you hit the nail on the head! He's awesome!!
I saw 2 of these "Laurel Canyon" documentaries recently. They were on Prime Video! OMG, all those young artists just in this small area. Helping each other write good music & lyrics. I thought I knew everything about those artists in the Canyon, and learned I really didn't know squat! I bought them both...Laurel Canyon and Echos of Laurel Canyon. I watch them both at least once a month!
@@sherryherrick6567 there was a documentary on the Eagles and Glenn Frey was talking about living in this apartment or house that many people rented or something, but they were just below Jackson Browne and he said he remembered Jackson Browne waking them up by playing a tune, then getting up and making some something to drink, coffee or tea then going back to the piano and replaying it over and over. It was a hilarious story. But that time was a great time for lyrics, and the music is terrific, and the fans wanted more
I’ll look up prime to see if I can find the documentary
@@nancaraway8413 this Laural Canyon even had Mamas & PaPas. They all just walked in to each other's bungalows, log houses. Gawd, they even helped each other with lyrics music. Nobody thought they were BIG yet. Members of Cream, Buffalo Springfield...etc. all the Firsts of musical legends now adays. They were just living ife to the fullest. Until that demon Chas Manson sent his murdering bunch up to the 'Rich' peoples homes (Roman Polanski's). Then it's said, all these free spirits kinda woke up & took notice. Then, the anti-war songs came rolling out, "4 Dead in Ohio" (Kent State students shot dead by Ohio national guard. I'm sorry, I could go on into infinity. Yes please, if you find the documentary or Rockumentary, let me know. I'm getting kinda old, and just love watching these stories. Thank you Nanc ✌️ & ❤️
I remember seeing Jackson Browne in the 70's live. It was such a GOOD show, his band was so tight, beautiful performance!!! The 70's music still RULES!!!!!
Jackson was born in Germany but grew up in the US. He attended Sunny Hills High School in Orange Co. Calif., and I attended La Habra High..we were rival high schools. My first boyfriend also went to Sunny Hills, ( the Silver Spoons) and was in Jackson's class. . In I think 1966 he took me to see the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band at a little place in Buena Park, I no longer remember the name but Jackson was playing with them at the time. Little did I know....what he would become. You need to listen to his entire catalog. Never has there been another artist that didn't have some songs I didn't like. Love it all and David Lindley was complete genius, I am so very sad at his loss. I have loved Jackson my entire life. And yes that hair is to die for......so shiney....I have seen many times live over the years and he still sounds amazing. You must listen to These Days which he wrote when he was 16. Jackson is an old soul......always has been. Peace out.
Arguably one of the best song writers of the 20th century. Have to listen to Late for the Sky and of course the entire album For Every Man. SO many great songs on that LP. Finally got to see him perform live and he gave an absolutely incredible show, playing ALL of my favorite songs. Then James Taylor came on and it went for another hour and half. I can die happy now.
Jackson still loves performing. I saw him recently at Beacon Theater in NYC. As incredible as ever, and always gracious and grateful at 74 years old.
I saw him a few years ago at Britt in Jacksonville OR. One of the BEST and most MEMORABLE concerts I have ever been to!!
The 60's, 70's and 80's was the greatest decades for Music. Heck your still listening to these tunes some 40-50-60 years later. The time of those decades had meaning and purpose to them. Today's music will never have that staying power because it has no meaning or purpose in it. btw You need to listen to Al Stewart's either "Year of the Cat" or "Apple Cider Reconstitution" for amazing crafted songs....
He's not german, he was a military kid born to American parents in Germany. Very much a California kid.
I was at a show he did in Santa Barbara in the nineties and his guitar was giving him grief, so he handed it to his tech and sat down at the piano and swung into... of all things... "When A Man Loves A Woman."
Definitely not what I was expecting and a really amazing moment.
These two songs were from Running On Empty.
David Lindsey's playing on Running On Empty is some of the best slide guitar I've ever heard.
That's actually Waddy Wachtel on slide guitar on Running on Empty. Lindley normally played either pedal steel guitar or violin on his stuff with Browne.
@@88wildcat I'm talking about the live version, which Waddy didn't play on. I should have said lap steel instead of slide.
@@88wildcat yep, Waddy didn’t play on the record. He may have been in one or more of JB’s touring bands and other albums but the slide on the record was all Lindley on lap slide.
Gotta play his earlier albums...instead of his top 40 garbage rock crap
@whiskey6string pedal steel guitar not as good as Rusty Young on pedal steel but then no one ever was
In my opinion there is nothing more spiritual than a group of people experiencing live music together, including but certainly not limited to church/synagogue/mosque/temple settings. Music speaks directly to the heart and soul without that pesky brain getting in the way! Great video!!
AMEN, MY BROTHER!!!
💯🫶🏻👏🏻
Absolutely. And the funny thing is, when experiencing/singing along to music - you are using both the right & left hemispheres of your brain - so it's actually more in sync and working on that higher level 😇
TRUTH. Great music causes an emotional reaction. There are songs that are so good it suddenly gets dusty in my room when I listen to them.
He helped eagles write songs. He is wonderful. I saw him live in Arizona in the very early 80s. Red rocks. He sang so many great songs.
I appreciate your, heart and mind, response to the video. Jackson Browne also used, one song transitioning into another, on his album "For Everyman". The album opens and closes with seamless song blends. David Lindley was a national treasure. He got that tone, you instantly recognized as great, with an old Rickenbacker lap steel, and a custom made "Dumble" amp. Thanks for the wonderful insights and I encourage you to listen to Jackson Browne's catalog from beginning to late.
He's had a great, long career and influenced many other artists. When he was just a struggling young songwriter he was living in a basement apartment, and above him was Glenn Frey and Don Henley who were playing clubs and trying to get started; those two would later found the Eagles. In an interview Glenn said he learned about songwriting and singing from JB; he'd listen above him as he'd work on one line over and over and over with different phrasing, etc. Then once he had it, he'd sing it more and more again to imprint it. Then on to the next verse or chorus - same thing... then link them to see how they fit vocally. Glenn said that taught him what it took to be not good, but great with writing and singing. Later JB wrote much of "Take It Easy" and dropped it, so Glenn finished it with the "Standing on the corner...." line and as some have mentioned it became an early Eagles hit; JB once said as co-writer it made him over $1M dollars. He's been a major influence as well as star himself.
Yeah but only first 4 albums were worth a shit then he sold out to top 40 garbage rock 30 times a day
In the original 1960 recording of this song by Maurice Williams and The Zodiacs, one of the verses is sung in a falsetto voice. Falsetto was super popular at that time. (That record reached #1.) Then in 1963, The Four Seasons released their version, peaking at #16. The lead singer of The Four Seasons was Frankie Valli, whose incredible falsetto is legendary, and made them a massively popular group. So when David Lindley sang his bit in that falsetto, he was paying homage to these early renditions. To be fair, his mannerisms were fairly campy, but overall I don't think the idea of it was humor. However, if you aren't aware that those early versions had these prominent falsetto segments, then I can see how it might be jarring and slightly bizarre.
This whole song is a tribute to doo-wop
Glad you men them!
One of my favourite songs video’s of all time. I never get tired of it. David Lindly and Rosemary Butler make the music and video
The world mourns the loss of David Lindly. A master musical artist
Welcome to the congregation Brother. As a 60 year old I can honestly say that Jackson Browne's music is an integral pert of the soundtrack to my life. He is a songwriter and a wordsmith of note. Please have a look at his recent remakes of some of his old hits too.
He has a fairly colourful history with a difficult break-up with the actress Daryll Hannah - the 70's were and 80's were a crazy time and crazy stuff happened. The break-up and the fallout really set his carrer back for a long time. I can't pass judgement on those wild times, there are always three sides to every story.
I am just happy he survived and he is still able to continue his art.
Jackson Brown was one of the greatest performers from the singer/songwriter era that included James Taylor, Carol King, Jonathan Edwards, Joanie Mitchell...
Jonathan Edward ? Missed out not knowing this guy ? Just looking up his music etc … very nice
They all lived in Laurel Canyon together.
Nobody's mentioned Linda Ronstadt....
@elisebarthalow6075 well, she was a singer. Not so much of a songwriter. But, she was in that era.
Can't forget Rodney Crowell, Bob Seger recorded some of his songs ie: "Blame it on midnight"
The Pretender,Rock Me on the Water,Doctor My Eyes, and Running on Empty are just a few classics
It's great that this fabulous music is being passed down through the generations. Thanks for creating this reaction.
This makes this 68 yr old woman get up sing & dance… Loved every second of this performance!!!!❤
Loved this version and David's performace was a nod to Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs who charted with Stay back in 1960. Love this song and this generation, luckily I grew up on it with my parents always playing this type of music. :)
My favorite Jackson Brown song is Running on Empty. He is a very soulful songwriter and performer. Thanks for this. 👏👏🇨🇦
Forest, Forest Gump
Agree! Takes me right back to my youth!
This is the song he always closes his show with. He plays it to honor his crew who work so hard getting his show set up and ready for him and then tear it down to move to the next place.
Well I didn’t plan on crying today but thanks brother. My mom absolutely loved Jackson Browne. I can still see her cleaning or gardening listening to him and dancing. I hope you can hear him in heaven mom. I love and miss you more.
I haven't heard Jackson in awhile, why did I wait so long?
There is no god. Grow up.
@@TheUprightLuthier-1959 huh?
@@stillracer2514 - ANY day, anytime, any year is a good time to listen to Jackson! ❣
THE ICON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jackson Browne has never put out a bad song! it is not in his DNA! David Lindley was amazing too!
This is a perfect homage to the roadies who make sure everything is set up and broken down for each show...basically the unsung heroes of live concerts.
Your first analysis was exactly spot on. That's the difference between the great song writers like Jackson Browne and Mark Knopfler and many others from that era. They were telling stories to wring an emotional response from the audience - the mark of any true artist of any art form.
Your comments on the generational differences in music are spot on.. no ‘auto-tuneBS’.. peddle steel guitar by David is haunting.. the vocal solos in stay are epic…
Lap steel guitar..
One of the greatest singer/songwriters in American music history.
I am soo happy I was born in 1960. I got to see all this as it happened!!!
I'm 10 years older, and it I agree
I've been listening to Jackson Browne for literally my ENTIRE life. He is one of my all time favorites. Listening to his tracks gets better and better with age. I've often downed a bottle of wine while listening to his live album volumes 1 and 2.
Such a great performance. Notice how Jackson allows his band to shine in their own right as well as his stellar performance.
Jackson Browne is one of those emotional artists. Whatever he's feeling, he just dumps the whole bag out on stage. I've seen the same willingness to share in live performances from Melissa Etheridge, Neil Diamond, Marcia Ball, Joe Walsh, Gloria Estefan, Eagles, Moody Blues and many others. I've been going to concerts since the 1970s, and the emotional experience is addictive. A video doesn't begin to replicate the adrenaline rush of a live performance.
The whole album Late For The Sky is a must listen! Literally, the whole album!
Just like the comments before me Jackson’s music has been a big part of my life since I was in high school in the early 70s. Great great musician! Thank you for talking about live band music. Nothing better than seeing a live band were the music is the event not the performance. Where the light show enhances the music not the other way around. If you like the feel of the Load Out, check out the album it is on, Running on Empty. It is all about being on the road. It was recorded half live and the other half on the tour bus. Thank you my friend.
Saw Jackson in Sydney on 1 December 2023. At 75 he is still awesome. That voice is incredible and so is his music. Over 50 years of pure listening pleasure.❤
I'm 58 and I've loved Jackson Browne since I was a teenager. Lucky enough to see in concert in 2010. He and Tom Petty, two of the greatest.
Add Neil young to the collection
Seen him live in 78 at Chicago's Ravinia. Saw him again at Chicago theater in 2010 with David Lindley. One of the best.
Jackson Browne is a treasure. He wrote some amazing music and lyrics at a very young age. Fantastic singer and multi instrumentalist. Amazing artist and a wonderful, warm, humble person. Thanks for a great choice and a nice enthusiastic reaction. 🌺✌️
I’m 65. The ‘70s are BY FAR the best music decade.
These were the formative singer/musicians of my youth, the Jackson Browns, the Linda Ronstadts, the Eagles, the Bruce Springsteens, the Supremes, the Temptations, the Aretha Franklins, the Ray Charles (the absolute best imo). i could go on and on (the Chi-Lites anyone?) Our cups truly ran over and being young didn't truly realize what treasures we had.
Jackson Browne's music catalogue is HUGE! He is most definitely a legend.
I'ma boomer, born in 1950. I've been through it all. Seen it all, up close. The baseline for my point of musical reference are The Beatles. Every single artist, band , cultural icon must be compared to The Beatles. No one comes close. I discovered Jackson Browne in 1973 with the album "Saturate Until Using" and "For Everyman". He is a singer, songwriter that equals the depth of Paul Simon and the cultural awareness of Dylan. i'm so impressed by your reaction. It is insightful, honest and with complete surprise and admiration.
I'm asking you to watch another video. The is a live concert by Peter Gabriel called "In Your Eyes". It's 10 minutes long and I promise you it will bring you to tears. Please let the concert run the entire length of the video before you respond. You can thank me later.
Dude....as long as there's always "just one more song", then the roadtrip, the concert still goes on at some level and people won't forget! I turn a big 7-0 mid-December 2023 and I haven't ever forgot! Jackson Browne....low key but always laid down a great sound and had a poignant message to go along with it! Rock on, Jackson Browne! Thanks for the music down through the ages! To this very day, if I hear a Jackson Browne song, it immediately brings me to a halt and I travel back in time to when the Music was naturally uplifting! "Just one more song"-Jackson Browne....just one more for all the fans and want-to-be roadies!
The incredible David Lindley he could play any string instrument. God Bless his Soul I'm 71 I've lived at an incredible time in music. It's filled my life with joy.
Jackson can remember "all of these lines" because he wrote all of them. He is/was a prolific writer.
