The fact he's 77 makes me sad.
Tbh i was a little surprised to read that .. i thought for sure he’d be in his 80s by now .. he has been around for a LONG time .
My favorites of his are probably Tender is the Night.. followed by Somebody’s Baby .

Or as I sometimes say, there's nothing you can criticize me for that I haven't already beaten myself up over.

Obviously the average age of this board must be 65+ now. The songs and people referenced are mostly older than my parents.
I am Gen X, but i dont care how old you are - if you are someone who is into music, or even if you just like music- then you should be familiar with Jackson Browne .. he was a pioneer of the “California Country” Eagles-type sound .. it’s not like he was in some obscure indie band or something .

Well, he was 17 when he was running up 101 in 65.
“In ‘69, i was 21”…. How long has JB been around ? That song (Running on Empty) was prominently featured in Forrest Gump over 30 years ago.. and it was *already* an old classic rock tune when it was featured in that film .

Tell us how we know all you listen to is that monotinous hood rat RAP, without telling us.

I sold Jackson a guitar back in 2006. He was a super nice dude.

Terrible, terrible news - and a horrible bookend to his mother's suicide.
Jackson Browne is without question the greatest of the American singer/songwriters (of that era) but really, of all time. Those first 4 albums are deep and classic. He combined great lyricism with spectacular instrumentation and captivating songwriting.
It doesn't get better than this:

One of the greatest ballads, ever. This was the 1st song on his 1st album:

The greatest meditation on death and dying ever. This was memorably and famously played at Belushi's funeral.

It was a Gretch Clipper, which was an entry level,guitar with a single pickup for,the period early 60s. It needed some work he said he had a guy in LA that could,handle,it no problem. We agreed on a price and he gave me some,tickets to his show with Tom Petty at Oak Mt. They were good to like 10th row middle.

Birds of St. Marks is one of the GOAT songs

Just stop there and I can agree with you.

Without question ? Come on man .
I am a Jackson Browne fan .. but i think that Fogelberg and Loggins and James Taylor and Paul Simon and even Billy Joel might have something to say about that.. and maybe a couple others im forgetting .. maybe i am mixing eras a little bit, but they were all big in the 70s & 80s..(Paul Simon in the 60s as well).. im not even saying you are wrong , im just saying that “without question” is way too strong a statement to make in re to Jackson Browne being ‘the greatest’ of that elite era , or of all time .
