Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 2004

Highly recommended 2CD collection from a great artist.
I bought this album last week and have been playing it in my car and at home. It is brilliant, and represents 30 years of Jackson Browne songs from 1972-2002. I do not know all that much else about Jackson Browne, but the songs here speak more eloquently than any ...

Running on Empty

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1990

Solid from Start to Finish
Great Album from a great artist. Highlights include The Title Track , "Rosie " , " Nothin' But Time " , " The Load Out / Stay ", " Love Needs a Heart " and " Cocaine " . I reccommend the DVD Audio version if you have a player . It features 2 Bonus tracks , " Cocaine ...

I'm Alive

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1993

Jackson's Masterpiece
This is not only clearly Jackson Browne's best album, it is easily one of the best albums I have EVER heard. Written in the aftermath of a painful breakup, Jackson proves himself a poet in his own right; any one of these songs could easily stand on its own as a ...

Solo Acoustic, Vol. 1

Jackson Browne

Inside Recordings, 2005

a private concert
just like having him in your house with his guitar and piano-- you either love it or hate it. it makes me grab my guitar and play along with him every time. and the lyrics will stay with you--

For Everyman

Jackson Browne

Asylum Records, 1990

(20 billion stars) Everything in the history of mankind led up to the release of pinnacle for art, science, math, agriculture...
A stunning, visionary album that encapsulates every one of Browne's several talents perfectly. Step aside, Abbey Road, this is my new favorite album. Miles ahead of its time, maturely written, and packed with classics even someone living on Jupiter will have heard, ...

Solo Acoustic, Vol. 2

Jackson Browne

Inside Recordings, 2008

The second in the Series
If you don't know Jackson Browne, the Solo Acoustic cd's are the place to start. This captures his brillance. Don't miss them.

Time the Conqueror

Jackson Browne

Inside Recordings, 2008

Mature, thoughtful work from a mature, thougthful man
Unless I'm mistaken, seems Jackson Browne has settled into a happy enough domestic life to allow his "Everyman" to ever-blossom. I remember reading an interview with JB, must have been about the time of "World In Motion", in which the interviewer asked him what's up ...

The Pretender

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1976

Another Of Jackson Browne's Best Albums
THE PRETENDER, along with JACKSON BROWNE, FOR EVERYMAN, LATE FOR THE SKY, and RUNNING ON EMPTY, is one of Jackson Browne's best albums. It features songs that cut to the very heart of the human soul, as well as railing against greed and materialism in the title track, ...

Jackson Browne (Saturate Before Using)

Jackson Browne

Asylum Records, 1990

I 've always liked Jackson Browne but..
I didn't know what I was missing before hearing this one. Almost every song is a sweet pleasure for the ears. I've been reborn as a fan of JB!

Late for the Sky

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1990

Ludicrously talented
I am writing this review in the vain hope that a young person will be inspired to buy one of the greatest albums ever made. This album is a clearly defined moment in Jackson Browne's ouevre (SP?)he was neve3r so eloquent and melodic and would never be so again. Every ...

Time the Conqueror

Hold Out

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1990

Brings back memories
I ordered this cd to replace my old LP record. I've always been a fan of Jackson Browne and this was one of my favorite albums. As I listen to this cd, it brings back precious memories of my youth..the good ol days. You will not be diappointed.

Lawyers in Love

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1983

Great eighties pop and social commentary
I give this album five stars because it contains my favorite Jackson Browne song ever, "Lawyers in Love." It's a clever satire of the Cold War, ironic in its prediction that "the U.S.S.R. will be open soon, as vacation land for lawyers in love." Thanks to Ronald ...

Looking East

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1996

Some real classics and maybe a clunker or two
Interesting album, one that sounds like a return to his earlier pre-1980s work. Moreover, I would include "Barricades of Heaven" right up there with the best songs Browne has ever made. It sounds straight off "The Pretender." However, on this same album is one of the ...

Next Voice You Hear: The Best of Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne

Elektra / Wea, 1997

Sensitive, insightful and musically clever
I was listening to this the other day, listening to Jackson Browne for the first time in over a decade, and I was struck not so much by the music itself, although "Doctor My Eyes" did raise my pulse a beat or two. What I was struck with is how prescient and how ...
