I bought The Pretender as a 13 year old not yet aware of the effect it would have on me. I plunked down my hard-earned $5.99 and brought it home to the turntable in my parent’s living room. Lying on the red and orange shag carpet, I was absolutely transported by the poetry, imagery and music. I swear, I wore that album out. Some 45 years later, I had the distinct pleasure of seeing JB in concert in a very cool venue in CT with my son. It was one of those moments in life - the realization of a bucket-list item - and the show was surreal, as if I were back in the living room hearing it again for the first time. JB comes across as a pretty humble guy considering his immense talent - highly recommend seeing him live….and if you are lucky enough to have a son or daughter - bring them along to experience real artistry.
I didn't know it was about a girlfriend who committed suicide. I just thought as a twenty something she left Brown. It gave me comfort when my love left forever.
Romans 10:9 King James Version 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved John 3:16 King James Version 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 1 Corinthians 15 The Resurrection of Christ 15 Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2 By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain. 3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance[a]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures
Another great song. I'm glad I came across your videos of this concert! Thanks for your work in sharing them with JB's fans.
Good Lord! The tone of that guitar hits you right in the heart
One of many poignant lyrics penned my a true master. Truly moving. Thank you Jackson for all of the music you gifted us.
Still amazing! Just one of his incredible, deeply moving songs! 💜
I Loved this Piece back in the day and Love it more now!!!
Fantastic!!! Jackson Browne has not lost a step after all these years. Beautiful song. Thanks for sharing with us!!!!!
I don't know what the opposite of "lost a step" is. But that is Jackson Browne.
Unsung. This guy's talents are. Fantastic artist.
He's still got it!! He's been a dreamboat since the 70's, still just as good today!
Another Rebecca (Rebekah) who admires him... 🌹
Greatest songwriter ever write em sing em play. Em.

I had to sell my ticket forgot we had Red Sox Yankee tickets 😢
I didn't know it was about a girlfriend who committed suicide. I just thought as a twenty something she left Brown. It gave me comfort when my love left forever.
It was the suicide of his wife and they had 6 month old son.
If you pur Bilk Stonebreaker and Bob Coy together you get Jackson Browne.
Brown was married to his wife who committed suicide 4 months after they got married ❤😢😢😢😢
He wrote the song about the relationship 😢😢😢
My husband committed suicide 3 weeks after we were married. So this song resonates with me.

He had morphed into Robert E Lee.....very nice too.!
