      I didn’t think he sung it on the record, only on live shows. I remember having the album. And I thought Maurice Williams, the guy who wrote it, was the singer. But it’s been a long time ago. So I could be wrong.

    Sniff, you found a sweet component of my young adulthood. This was typically the closing song and everyone waited for it. This entire album is genius. Rosemary Butler is the female backing vocal and David Lindley has played fiddle, slide, etc. with Mr. Browne for decades. They were perfectly in simpatico musically. Sadly, Mr. Lindley has passed on. Jackson Browne has been my pretend boyfriend forever . . .

      Jackson Browne has been my mom’s pretend boyfriend forever too. She has long told a story about being invited backstage but not going because she was pregnant at the time. I have no idea if it is true and she has dementia now, which has made her an even more unreliable reporter of facts. What I do know is that she dances while listening to Jackson Browne several times a day every day.
      I grew up on a steady diet of what we in GenX call classic rock, but there is no other artist where I can sing four of their albums word for word, which just proves what a devoted fan she was.
      Thanks for your comment. It really brought a smile and a tear. I love Jackson Browne for the joy, connection, and artistry he has given my mom and the rest of us.
      PS - I won’t make my mom jealous by telling her he was also your pretend boyfriend. It can be our secret.

    Guys, this whole album is a masterpiece, and should be listened to start to finish. For those of us who were around in 77, it was a case of the stars aligning, and the world stopping for a brief glimpse of perfection. Easily one of my favorite live albums of all time.

      Sorry but Jackson Browne did not write "Take it Easy". He did buy it from a friend of mine who did write it, so Jackson owns it and he does write good stuff. When words or music are credited, if it says by someone they wrote it but if it just has the name without the 'by' it means they own the rights.

    Jackson Browne has been one of my all time favorites since the 1970s. I am going to see him in concert for the 5th time in my life on October 8, 2023. The Pretender, These Days (with variations on lyrics) , Late for the Sky, Shape of a Heart, Here Come Those Tears Again. THIS is the One More Song. At the end he says, "I'd like to thank you all".

    Well done, boys. Always loved Jack.
    If you’ve ever been in a band and been on the road, songs like this about road life cut so deep. This and Seger’s “Turn The Page” bring back so many memories I’ll always cherish. The endless roads in the middle of nowhere, the hotels that run together, the lonely afternoons, the girl who would steal my heart for a week or 2 until the next girl came along, and above all else…pinching yourself with how lucky you were to be a drummer in a major rock band on the road…and get paid for it. All we did was either sleep all night on the bus to the next city or wake up at noon in a hotel, eat, shower, check out the town or the sights, afternoon band meeting to practice parts or go over the set list, eat, get ready for the gig, band dinner, chill, gig time: play for 2+ hours, 2am: party, sleep, then off to the next city. Repeat. That’s your career.

    The two solos in this song -- on the keys (organ or synth?) and on guitar -- are some of the best parts here. Each time, I am taken on a lyrical journey through a section of the song, even though it's strictly instrumental. Phenomenal composition.

    • @kevingavigan7883
      @kevingavigan7883 Год назад +1

      There's actually two guitar solos, the first guitar solo in the middle of the "Stay" section is Danny Kortchmar, the slide guitar is the late David Lindley, (who also sings the male falsetto, the female voice is Rosemary Butler, the harmonizing male voice is Doug Haywood), Craig Doerge plays the synth, as well as playing organ and electric piano, Browne himself is, of course, on the regular piano, Leland Sklar on bass, and Russ Kunkel on drums.

    I saw Jackson Browne live this past July. Of course he brought the house down playing this as his encore.

  • @skybluemarshall

    The late great Glenn Frye was once Jackson Browne's upstairs neighbor. Frye said that Brown drove him crazy with his incessant playing.
    Frye could hear every note that Browne sang and played as he was writing Doctor My Eyes and other songs for his debut album.
    He said that Browne would play a few chords and sing a few melody notes, over and over for hours if necessary, until he was satisfied with each section. Browne would pause for several minutes, and Frye could hear a tea kettle whistling. Then, Browne would return to his piano and begin working on the next section of the song for another long period of time. He was taking his sweet time and didn't seem to care how long it took to finish writing a song.
    Although, it drove him crazy. Frye also remarked that it helped him as a songwriter to hear Browne's very meticulous, detailed method of creating songs and building them piece by piece from the ground up.
    Frye had already written some of his own songs. This period was before the Eagles debut album came out. But, for Frye, this was kind of a light bulb moment, hearing how a good songwriter crafted his songs with a dedicated plan and a purpose.

      @mikedineen7857 My version of the story must have been misquoted. I just read other versions of the story, and Frey didn't actually name the song. Maybe he was referring to hearing Jackson's writing process on several several songs.

    Rose Mary Butler is the great backup singer on this song. She backed up Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, Neil Young and Rosanne Cash on recordings.
    I would love to hear a Bonnie Raitt or Rosanne Cash song on A&A.

  • @fleurdelis2976

    I love this song. It's such a beautiful tribute to the fans and the roadies. I didn't appreciate Jackson Browne until I was in my 30's but I now count him as one of my favorite artists. He is a brilliant lyricist. "The Pretender" is one of my favorite songs and it really has more meaning to me as I get older. "Sleep's Dark and Silent Gate" is another beautifully tragic song that worth a listen. It was written after Jackson's wife committed suicide. You can't go wrong with anything by Jackson Browne in my opinion.

    When I lived in Rotterdam, my car had an 8 track tape deck, but the only tape I had was Jackson Browne's album "Late For The Sky". I played it repeatedly for two years, any time I was driving. To this day, I still love it.

    This was their final encore on the Running on Empty tour 1977 stage dark Jackson solo on the piano. then joined by David Lindley and the rest of the band came out and joined in. The album was written about life on the road.

    He came at the tail end of the melancholy song period, with others like Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, The Eagles and such. Some beautiful songs, but man, was soooo happy when fun rock reappeared with punk and new wave.

    I was lucky enough to catch this tour live. Definitely in the top ten of great concerts I've seen over the years, and there have been many. The band was a stellar grouping of players. The late great David Lindley, Leland Sklar, Russ Kunkel and many others...

    The "Stay" part of the song is a brilliant additional tribute, along with those to the stage hands and the audience, a cover of a much loved classic from 1960 by Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs.
    JB and his band are legends from the AOR era, and this performance is one of many reasons why. He is part of our soul.

    Back when this came out I was a college freshman. My roommates had a band and they stored some of their equipment in my dorm room. I got the bright idea of hooking up their 500 watt amp/pre-amp and Peavy SP1 speakers to my turntable, and we played this album at full volume (along with Head East, Never Been Any Reason). We had party central from then on. Good times, great song.

    Saw Jackson Browne in 1980…. Long story but I bought two front row center section seats at last minute. While opening band was playing. Rest of row was people he knew. Oklahoma City.
    A very great show. They did this song in the middle of the show.
    I used to camp out for tickets. Been to hundreds of concerts. This was my only front row seats.

  • @rhsatrhs

    The song's authenticity comes from the fact that his supporting musicians were all A-List studio musicians who were also constantly touring. They played with James Taylor, Carole King, Warren Zevon, Linda Ronstadt, Crosby and Nash... You guys know all those names by now. Jackson Brown wrote the lyrics centered around himself, but they all felt it and it shows. The band was known as "The Section": Russ Kunkel on drums, Leland Sklar on bass, Chris Doerge on keyboards, Danny Kortchmar and David Lindley on guitars. Waddy Wachtel also played with this group, but not on this song. Not sure if he played on other songs on the album. The album came out in 1977, which if you look, you'll see was chock-full of other great albums, and this was absolutely one of the best that year.

    One of the greatest songwriters of all time .JB has so many great songs a lot of them are thought-provoking and maybe a little sad, BUT NOT ALL. I've been a fan of his and seen him at least 25 times since the late 70's. Try "For a Dancer" or" Late for the Sky" or one of my personal favorites "Barricades of Heaven" Enjoy watching you guys whenever I can.

  • @1sad1956
    @1sad1956 Год назад +1

    Been to several JB concerts. I really like that he uses women from his opening act (e.g. Shawn Colvin) as the female lead in Stay.
    Generally this was his encore song.

    As a Piano Mover, I often had this in my head when picking up a instrument after a show.
    One night in San Diego after a show I found the musician sitting at the piano in low light, plinking away and he put on a little mini performance for just my partner and I after I gently told him "I'm here to take your piano." In the tone of this song.
    Good choice, A&A
    "Gone Daddy Gone"- The Violent Femmes is a must that no other reaction channel has done yet.

    Jacksins entire music catalog us earth exploring. Such in depth poetic writing. Nothing is just an accident in his music it's toiled I er with every element. True story; He was playing at SPAC one time where I working in PR at the time his contract was typical to play only fir a set period of time. He decided to ask the audience if they minded if he played some more. He said he'd pay the additional fees to play on and so he did. He truly does love playing and stating just a little bit longer.

    David Lindley's "Mercury Blues" is a short, but sweet banger. Produced by Jackson Browne it showcases David's slide guitar.
    David played steel guitar & sang the falsetto verse on "The Load Out/Stay". He was a brilliant musician who could play anything that had strings. He passed away early this year.
