Check out our NEW Jackson Browne video where we ranked every Jackson Browne studio album from the good to the great! WATCH HERE: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dICLj5V_adjJcqw.html

Jackson is very gracious, kind, and respectful.

That girl could sing always reminds me of my wife, "She wasn't much good at sticking around but that girl could sing" Brings me to tears every time I hear the song.... 💕 I love you Eve, always have, always will, I miss you dearly! Please come home...💕 😌

Will always be grateful that Jackson got Warren Zevon signed to a record deal as Warren is my favorite artist of all-time. Love that Jackson still plays Warren's songs. Jackson's records also introduced me to another favorite...David Lindley. Jackson Browne has long tentacles and has been a friend, mentor and "big brother" to so many of the 70's LA artists. Thanks for 50 years of enjoyment, my friend.

Jackson Browne has always spoken to my soul.

Took a break from him because of his activism ... then I grew up and realized his songs were as much a part of me as anything in my memory. Then I fell in love with his stuff all again. Man ... I still get wiped out listening to “Something Fine”. He has no peer in songwriting. There are other greats I love, but he has held a special place in my psyche for decades. Age well, my friend.

Same here…his “activism” is more defined as self-righteous indignation, and is quite boorish honestly. …but I agree, his songs became such a part of my live when I was younger, that I can muster up enough forgiveness to allow myself to return and listen from time to time 😊

Jackson Browne is music for the soul,

My older brother got me into Jackson, when I was 15,have been a fan of his for 40 yrs ,have seen him 3 times live, 5th row center each time. His music soothes my soul every time.

I have loved Jackson Browne since i was a child, and I hope new generations of music lovers will discover how truly widespread his brilliance is. Legend....barely begins to cover him. God bless and keep him safe with us for many years to come.

@Clyde Jackson Browne Jackson, thank you for producing such touching music. Due to covid, your Connecticut stop on your tour has been postponed 2 years in a row now.🙄 You will be performing at Foxwoods Casino in the month of June 2022. I don't know 🤔 they say 3 times a charm. We'll see you next year! ❤ The one and only time I have been able to see you live, was July 2004 at the Oakdale Theater, Wallingford, Ct. I know time has passed since, I wonder if you'd remember the girl going up to the stage and placing a red, white and blue crafted bouquet of flowers and lace in front of you as you sat a played for all of us in the theater? That bouquet represented independence and all the avenues that it has taken and still takes. Jackson I hope you read this, stay healthy and wish you joy, love and longevity.

Jackson is the best lyricist of all time, in my opinion... and his voice is so pure and simple so the melody and lyrics really shine. One of my fondest dreams - something I desperately want to do before I die - is sing backup for Jackson Browne. Doesn't even have to be on stage or in front of anyone. Just one song, harmonizing together. Preferably something from Late for the Sky or I'm Alive, but I'm flexible.

Especially the title track!

#12 Jackson Brown was arrested along with thousands of others at the Abalone Alliance Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant protest near San Luis Obispo in 1981. I know because I was there. Wavy Gravy was arrested too and wearing a Santa Claus suit and actor Robert Blake was arrested too. The men who were arrested were taken to a school gymnasium converted to a "jail" with 3" mattresses on the floor and guards standing at each door. The buses were brought in one by one as the cops filled them up and the prisoners were unloaded and processed as each buss arrived. When each bus arrived the man made a big circle inside the gym and chanted "Om" until each bus load was processed. The cops were freaking out at first because they didn't know what we were going to do with all that energy. We remained calm and in good spirits. We had educational classes during the day taught by our fellow "inmates", and each night we had a talent show with the different affinity groups coming up with skits and performances. The second night during the talent show a guard carried a black acoustic guitar over his head across the gym floor with hundreds of men watching and then gave the guitar to Jackson on the stage and he sang several songs. After that, Jackson closed each nights talent show with a couple songs. Many of us stayed for up to 6 or 7 days because the cops were so unprepared to process us out with own-recognizance releases. After a couple years we were informed that the district attorney dropped all charges against the over 2,000 men and women arrested over the two weeks of protests.

When I was at university and working as a stage hand at the concert venue, Jackson Browne allowed me play the Bösendorfer grand piano he was using on that tour. 40+ years later I still remember what a fantastic, friendly and genuinely nice guy he was to a random university student.

My very first concert was America (during Horse With No Name fame) with Jackson Browne as their opening act in 1972. I was just 14 years old but I knew even then I was witnessing something special with both performances.

He was there as I grew through that time of boy to man. Influencing my thoughts about my world and my place in it. Truly he was like a family member. Thru the good and not so good. Thank you sir.

As for "celebs" there is nobody i love more than Jackson. I saw him in 78 and 04. In 78 Rosie and David were with the band, the "Running on Empty" tour. Jackson seemed so shy at such a young age, but his music was so very very good. To this day ( Aug 2, 2023) and counting, he is and always will be my favorite singer/songwriter/musician. I adore him and all of his music.

Not that this is his only accomplishment, but he writes without s doubt the best "break-up songs" of any songwriter ever., with the short, incredibly poignant "Late For The Sky" still at the top of the list. He's written some newer beauties, like the breathtaking "Sky Blue and Black" and "Too Many Angles", but to me, nothing can match the perfection of 'Late For The Sky"". .... "Looking hard into your eyes, there was nobody I'd ever known" .... the ability to write a line like that, conveying so much depth and breath of feeling and meaning in so few words, is to me the epitome of what makes him one of our all-time greatest songwriters and poets.

I'm considerably older than you...and from the US....so that was more like 3 things I didn't know about Jackson Browne. I'm delighted your talking points was on him though. He's been one of my favorite artists since I was in 8th grade.

Jackson is undoubtedly one of the best singer songwriters of our generation, songs of substance,reality romance and life in the heart of America starting with his earlier albums like "late for the sky" "for every man" and of course "the pretender"; the latter being the one the propelled him to the 'star status' he carries with him to this very day all the while maintaining his humbleness hippiness honesty topped with a splash of humour for coolness,all in casual California style modest in nature; he can still bring a tear to my eye from the context of lyrics he so easily delivers. Jackson please try and come back to Alberta just one last time, so I can bring my grandchildren to the show to witness true authentic easy listening music that lasts and lasts and lasts cause it's cleansing to shine on&on&on&on&never gets old,just fresher

I begun to like Jackson in 72, maybe it was 73. I lost my father in 72 was the last Saturday of November. I joined the Corps in November 74 and then he came out with the wonderful "Pretender" album, While I'm in the Corp. This whole album felt as if he wrote it for me! "Daddy's Tune" hit me rather hard as did "The Only Child" these were songs that I "felt" and grieved with, they continue to bring tears and are a reminder of a loss of someone dear. Thank you Jackson for walking with me and sharing your wonderful heart felt articulation.

Hello 👋 Edna 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 was at a concert during the1977 tour, the concerts that the Running on Empty album was recorded from. I was at one of the last ones, in LA at the Universal Amplitheater. mid September, that's when the recording was done. i remember it ending with the load out and Stay, which went on and on and on and on, just getting higher and higher. i still have the tee shirt i got at that concert, it's the picture of him from his first album cover, with the words Jackson Browne and Los Angeles on it. it's the only jackson concert i've ever been to. i haven't been to a lot of concerts in my life but i've been to some historic ones, Dylan at Hollywood Bowl sept 3 1965, just the second concert with an electric set, a few days after the Highway 61 Revisited album was released, nobody had ever heard Desolation Row before that night, or Ballad of a Thin Man. Saw Dylan and the Band on 2/14/74 which was their last ever tour concert together, the Before the Flood concert album was recorded at that performance. I consider that Jackson Running on Empty concert historic. it was at the peak of the intensity of his mushrooming fame and popularity, his songs, especially Running on Empty, just nailed it, what a lot of people were going through. a lot of us, in 65 we were 17, runnin up 101. in 69 we were 21 and called the road our own, ended up all kinds of other roads, not knowing where, definitely running on empty and coping with some drugs. The other jackson memory i have is that in 2004 february, a friend took me to the Grammies, not something i ever would have gotten to do in my life, just happened to be with that guy that year. my friend knew Jackson, friend was a session musician, had played with jackson, he knew other people jackson played with better, Bonnie Raitt, Danny O'Keefe. The grammies was right after Warren Zevon had just died, and my friend told me that jackson browne was putting on a wake for warren zevon that night after the grammies, at McCabes guitar shop in Santa Monica, it was a small venue for music performances as well as a guitar shop. so my friend said maybe if we go and act like we belong there we can get in, and we did, we just walked in, eating catered stuff like strawberries. Then, the musicians started performing, doing Warren songs, jamming on the songs, it was loose, Warren's son did a couple of solo performances. Jackson was playing, in the background, and just watching over the whole thing, like, not running it, but watching over it, nurturing the gathering. i had the impression he was avoiding attention because he didn't want it to be about him, just guessing.

Fact 11, Not only did Jackson write Take it Easy, and These Days, he did so at just age 16 showing an amazingly precocious and mature level of talent at a very very young age. Something that was quickly noticed by the older established artists such as the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band long before super groups like the Eagles stepped up and made a fortune on his material!

I played his music in my room in college and we all studied to him. Then we saw him when he came to our campus.

NUMBER FOUR IS ONLY HALF CORRECT: Warren Zevon actually DID MOVE TO SPAIN after getting discouraged with his lack of true musical success. Jackson Browne LURED HIM BACK TO THE USA, with a letter advising that he had secured a recording contract for Zevon with Asylum Records. (It should be noted that Zevon apparently made a low-rent living while in Spain, playing in a local bar; it was there that he and David Lindell first wrote "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner", so the time was spent well).

But he did love me as much as he was able (has some issues ) and we are now friends. I read him those lyrics or gave them to him, in about 1985.... also was listening a lot to IN THE SHAPE OF A HEART at that same time. Wound up moving from the Deep South to LA and then the East Coast, then back fo LA after a divorce. His songs get me through everything. Now back in my South, I am still marking my changes through his masterpieces... 6 years ago it was SHADOW DREAM SONG and now it’s A LITTLE SOON TO SAY.........

I remember Jackson saying in concert (on youtube) that he's often mistakenly given credit for writing that song. He'll sing it, but corrects people on that. I remember this because I also thought he wrote it. It's an easy mistake to make because he wrote so much and it is his style. He's incredibly humble and honest on top of everything else.

Jackson Browne did indeed write the Eagles' hit Take It Easy. Browne initially started writing the song for his debut album and completed most of it, but became disenchanted with it. When Glenn Frey heard the song he was desperate for Jackson to finish it so they could record it. Still finding no luck, Jackson gave the song to Frey and the Eagles who then added the famous second verse and arranged it and recorded the first version. The rest - as they say, is history! Browne has stated in concerts and interviews, he's glad it went that way, the Eagles gave the song what it needed with their skilled arranging and very powerful harmonies. Absolutely brilliant song and arguably one of the biggest rock songs of all time.

Okay I checked and agree, but let's give Glenn Frey a little love. Here's more on it: Browne had written the opening part of the second verse, then ran into writer’s block. Here’s how Frey explained the collaboration in the liner notes to the 2003 album, The Very Best of the Eagles: “I told him that I really liked it. ‘What was that, man? What a cool tune that is.’ He started playing it for me and said, ‘Yeah, but I don’t know - I’m stuck.’ So he played the second unfinished verse and I said, ‘It’s a girl, my lord, in a flatbed Ford, slowin’ down to take a look at me.’ That was my contribution to ‘Take It Easy,’ really, just finishing the second verse. Jackson was so thrilled. He said, ‘Okay! We cowrote this.’ But it’s certainly more of him.” Thumbs up to them both, hitch hiker style.

IDK, but I love JB's version and the way it segues into "Our Lady Of The Well".

How Running on Empty didn't make the top 500 I'll never know!

You should not take that 500 list seriously! Why? It's a joke. " Light my Fire" by the Doors. Was number 1 for over 16 weeks. A key song of the 60's. And so much more. Was moved from I think 35 too over 300! Like I said the list is a joke!!!

And, his first name is really "Clyde." Seriously!

My favorite album is Late for the Sky

Cool dude . No doubts

Doctor My Eyes. Period.

Hello 👋 Heather 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.

How about this one? His first band was the Soft White Underbelly, a pre-cursor of Blue Oyster Cult.

I knew all these, but hey !
