    jackson browne can hold his own with any of the classic rock musicians i saw him live at redrocks amphitheater for the runnin on empty tour, what a show

  2. madprinter says:

    …Yeah, well put!

  3. sillykidssong says:

    it sounds like plain old country music, but it also sounds like a fragment of a long and passionate conversation between two people who are so in love with each other they hate the fact that they are..I don’t know too many people other than Mr. Browne who can achieve this.

    Jackson Browne also write, “These Days”, also recorded by Nico and The Allman Bros.

    and James Dean was probably the Eagles’ worst song. it made it onto a double album greatest hits compilation that I have… and as much as I love the Eagles, that song is just horrific. It’s like the opening to a western cartoon or something. Of course, Doolin Dalton is much more solid and Take It Easy is a classic.

  7. Grentyr says:

    Respect is the word here, G.

  8. redace01 says:

    Neither of which i have really any respect for

  9. MrClcguy says:

    Yes but Jackson introduced Glen Frey to Don Henley!

  10. redace01 says:

    He wrote 4 songs with the Eagles: Take It Easy, Nightingale, Doolin-Dalton and James Dean. So when you give credit to the Eagles, you give most of the credit to the Eagles.

    Great question. I would guess it’s becase Iggy is a punk, which by definition is self-destructive (“a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm”) but Jackson was sincere, the reponsible type. So, it might have seemed slightly hypocritical? Just taking a guess. His fans might have included more sober people, too, while I can’t imagine very many straight liners listening to the Iguana.

    Ahhhh….yes….young Jackson Browne…an I mean young!!! He sounds great on this….such a great musician/singer….when you give credit to the Eagles…you musy really thank jackson Browne cause he wrote most of there songs.

  14. marriottmad says:

    thank god for youtube. it gives so many young people like me the opportunity to see great music vids from over the years, that we’d never have been able to see. this is a prime example. cheers, awesome post :D

    pray to god for me babe
    that he can let me side

  16. AyeWeCan says:

    just love this song

    Thanks for posting

    this version is better than the one on pretender – and its fab

  17. meesalikeu says:

    ok but jb is/was a heavy cigarette smoker and weedhead. so that i think that still applies…depending on what you think of those kinds of drugs.

  18. MAX5WM says:

    This video was from Don Kirschner’s Rock Concert. They closed that show with “Take It Easy”. This historical performance of JB which introduced the Eagles on stage before they were famous is only eclipsed by the emotional impact of the songs.

    A treasure for those who appreciate a truly talented singer/songwriter who was generous by helping others move into the business among other causes.

  19. primitif7 says:

    yeah,but JB wasn’t into those drugs,so…

  20. candelise says:

    I am a little curious as to why whenever I look on this site, when it comes to The Eagles/Jackson Browne etc. comments are always made on the coke/pot use. I never seem to read anything about the heroin/speed use of the likes of Iggy Pop/The Stooges or any of the Punks. Is one drug more credible than another? Just a thought.

  21. jpiraino says:

    Felder on the acoustic slide and Leadon on the pedal steel are brilliant; incredibly soulful. Beautiful lyrics by Jackson Browne as well. I’m a huge Eagles fan, so thank you for posting this. there just isn’t that much live footage of them from the 70s out there. i believe this formation was when the the band was at their peak: Henley, Frey, Leadon, Meisner, and Felder.

    j. Browne Gtr e voc;
    B. leadon lap steel gtr;
    d. felder slide;
    g frey piano;
    r. meisner bass;
    d. henley drums.

  23. mdc3m says:

    missed Don Felder on lead guitar…never did see who was playing lap steel.

  24. mdc3m says:

    That’s the eagles behind him…Glenn Fry on piano, Randy Meisner on bass and Don Henley on the drums.

  25. hepenypacker says:

    Who’s playing the steel guitar? Bernie Leadon or David Lindley?

  26. NDPOOL says:

    That is Don Felder on slide guitar.
