JACKSON BROWNE - RUNNING ON EMPTY ...LIVE ALBUM 1977
[SIZE=2]I have been meaning to revisit this superb live album for awhile and yesterday I did ! This is one of my beloved live recordings from a brilliant song writer and musician. Jackson is in top flight on this album of ten songs. His mega hit - Doctor My Eyes - came later.The backup band is very good also. I didn't know exactly where to put Jackson ...folk, rock ,,,it ended up here,,very few real FOLK albums out there today!..most of them have rock overtones.
* I llistened to Jake Bugg and Jackson may have influenced him ?

This one is a masterpiece. Love that Rosie track as well as Shaky Town.
