it should probably be noted that he's singing the falsetto part in Stay.

Stay was originally recorded by Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs in 1960. Jackson Browne wrote "The Load Out" and paired it with a slightly adapted "Stay" for his live show.

Jackson Browne is a master songwriter, up there with James Taylor, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Neil Yong etc... I've been lucky enough to see him live.. utterly wonderful.

[@mabelle9664]

I saw this tour in Mobile Alabama. Hard to believe it's been almost 50 years ago. I was a newlywed and this was the first concert my husband and I went to together. We drove from Pensacola Fl to Mobile through a blinding storm, it was so worth it. The entire concert was amazing. When they got to the Load out and Stay, it was still storming outside, and I really didn't want it to be over. I was with the love of my life having the time of my life. One of my most cherished memories. I still have the Tshirt and the husband.

[@steveturner3999]

I still have the tickets to that concert. I wasn’t able to go at the last minute and I kept the tickets. I always regretted missing that show.

Saw many concerts at the Mobile Municipal Auditorium…driving over from Pensacola in the 70s…Three Dog Night, Alice Cooper, Molly Hatchett, and Peter Frampton! Good times!!!

[@rickpetersen1745]

Jackson Browne is one of the most humble Rock stars. He has an awesome relationship with most of Southern California's most famous soft Rock personalities. He lived in a house with Don Henley and Glenn Frye living in the basement, who said he taught them how to write songs. Linda Rondstat, David Crosby,Graham Nash,and Steven Still are all friends with Jackson Browne.

[@tjtampa214]

Yes... all of that. Love Jackson Brown to no-end. 💜 Saw him just a couple years ago on his own KZbin channel still going strong. Beautiful gentle-man. 🌷 Amazing writer - performer. Suggestion: "Turn the Page" by Bob Seger on the "Live Bullet" album. Actually - every one of those songs on that album (... don't do a digital remix either! LOL). 💪

The late great song writer Hoyt Axton was known to crash there as well. Hoyt was trying to write "boney fingers" and someone yelled if you don't finish that song you will end up with "boney fingers"

[@marklar7551]

Legends of the day 👑🗿👑🗿👑

[@MundoDragon]

Actually, Glenn Frye lived in the same apartment building. It's unclear if it was actually the 'basement' or just an apartment underneath Jackson's. Don Henley lived in Kenny Roger's music house. It was a kind of shelter that Kenny had to help out wayward musicians who made their way to California in hopes of stardom.

[@chrino21]

Jackson Browne has a voice that's an irresistible combination of vulnerable, melancholy, tragic, honest, and hopeful. A good example is "These Days", which is an incredible song, especially considering he wrote it when he was 16 yrs old.

[@tohism]

[@PJ-wm9nq]

RIP David Lindley, master of many strings! (especially his lap steel.)

[@bostonvair]

You know, I haven't seen that movie yet. But the song "Stay" is an old song, but Jackson Browne reworked the lyrics to line up with what he was singing in (the Load Out)... i.e. he wants to stay and play longer (if the union don't mind, etc). The other vocalists were Rosemary Butler and David Lindley. Lindley was playing the lap steel (the thing that.looked like a small guitar but works like a pedal steel). Both vocalists nailed it. Sadly, we lost David Lindley early last year. More gems from Jackson Browne: Running on Empty Doctor My Eyes Tender is the Night The Pretender

[@elizabethetheridge176]

Jackson Browne is in a songwriter and rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame. He has so many songs for you to listen to. I don’t know where to begin.❤

[@88wildcat]

I do, anything from his Late for the Sky album.

[@patrickvarine8476]

My father said a lot of times, the crew would actually come out and start dismantling the stage while he was playing this. Magical.

[@pudder68]

Laid back sophistication is how I describe Jackson Browne... He makes it so smooth and effortless but you know that its a genuinely super well crafted song.

[@walterpanovs]

Jackson Browne was (and is) one of the best singer/songwriters to come out of the west coast in the late '60s and '70s. He was associated with the Eagles early on, co-writing a couple of their early hits and then went on to record some great stuff of his own through the '70s and '80s, He was one of those artists in the "We Are the World" chorus in 1985.

[@robertholte958]

Jackson Browne "Doctor My Eyes"........ An amazingly deep and honest song

[@ATN2USN]

Worked for a band moving them from gig to gig. Hard work. Thanks for the recognition.

[@raymiller8555]

Jackson, without doubt, is one of America’s greatest songwriters. He once commented that he was never one to write “cheery” songs. He paints true life pictures that are honest, introspective with a bit of melancholy mixed in. His pop hits from the 60’s and 70’s like Running on Empty, Doctor My Eyes, The Pretender, etc are mainstays of 70’s rock, however, if you dig deep you will find heartfelt poetic treasures in songs like, Late for the Sky, For A Dancer, After the Deluge, Birds of St Marks, etc. I sometimes wish I had never heard these songs so I could enjoy them again for the first time.

[@shawn1432]

Jackson and Don Henley were roommates when they we’re trying to make it…Don says that Jackson would pound on the piano Allllllll day long and from that we have the Eagles and Jackson Browne two of the most iconic musicians of my life time and I’m so thankful !!

[@rjaraneta913]

They were not roommates. It was Glenn Frey who lived in the same apartment complex as Jackson Browne, who knew him first, but they were not roommates either.

[@debjorgo]

A live take of both songs was used on the studio album, Running on Empty. The whole album was recorded either on stage, backstage, on the tour bus or in other locations on the tour, and many of the songs dealt with touring.

[@derricktrottier6763]

the roadway scene with the drum kit in the road.. i remember the cover well.

[@maureencollins5177]

They guy singing the falsetto was master musician David Lindley, who played slide guitar, fiddle, acoustic, anything with strings. Listen to "Running on Empty", "Here Come Those Tears Again", "Doctor My Eyes", "Lawyers in Love", "The Pretender".

[@LeftCoastStephen]

All of that and was one of the nicest and funniest people ever.

[@matthewdecoteau699]

Didn't hear the first part of this song for a long time. First listened to it on vinyl, dripped the needle when "Stay" started. Wasn't until I got the album on CD, where I couldn't skip "The Load Out" that I first heard, and appreciated it. Well played Jackson Browne.

[@MarkEvanWhite]

I enjoyed this. I hadn’t heard this song in decades. Fun seeing such a lovely young lady enjoy it for the first time.

[@thomasp.3796]

Not only did Jackson Browne write this song, he had written lots of hits for himself and others including Bruce Springsteen and The Eagles.

[@robertgrimes7401]

He only wrote the Load Out song. Stay was recorded by Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs back in the early 60’s.

[@jkp17]

Including most of "Take it Easy"!

[@gregleblanc9357]

This is my all time favorite Jackson Brown song, although I really enjoy pretty much his whole catalog

[@scott3744]

It's like going back to my childhood hearing this song... it was on FM classic rock radio all the time when I was growing up, and it has always been a favorite, the kind you stop what you're doing and turn the radio up for, and sing along with 👍😁

[@SG-js2qn]

Jackson Browne had hits of his own, and he also co-wrote "Take It Easy" for the Eagles. There's a few good songs from this era about the strange and lonely life of a touring musician, like "Turn the Page" by Bob Seger, "Faithfully" by Journey, and "We're An American Band" by Grand Funk Railroad.

[@gbdrumsamateurhour7205]

His songs are often wistful and reflective, somehow relatable even if you didn't share the literal experience he's singing about. He can draw you in like that. The Pretender is a gem.

[@LoriTalbot-du2qt]

My sister won tickets and a backstage pass to see Jackson several years ago. She said he was one of the nicest and humblest people she had ever met !

[@mikemiller3069]

The steel guitar in this video is a "lap steel". They are tuned to an open chord and played with a metal slide. The kind that you've seen on a stand are called "pedal steel guitars". They have foot and knee levers to change the chord type (major, minor, 7th, etc.).

[@davidkilianek9168]

Many , many moons ago, I took a summer job traveling with the Carnival. I was young and resilient, and the change did me a lot of good, getting me out of town for awhile, learning how to hustle and live on the road... This Jackson Browne song; " The Load Out." Was our anthem. After returning home to a normal 9 to 5 job, I took a side job, as a Roadie, for a friend's band who was seeing a lot of success back then. I honestly cannot tell you how much this song means to me. It felt like Jackson Browne was singing this song directly to me. Now... So many years later, whenever I need inspiration, and don't feel like living with the aches and pains of getting old, everytime I hear that song it takes me back to those days with the Carnival, when I was in my early 20s. I absolutely love your channel here on KZbin. You are among one of my favorite reactionary artists o n this channel. Along with this Jackson Browne song, The other song that hits home for me, is the 1986 Bob Seger hit. ( " The Ring.") Do yourself a favor and give it a listen. 😉

[@michaelhamrick1740]

This is a song about life on a concert tour. His homage to the roadies (stage crew) at the beginning recognizes those unknown folks who set up and strike the stage for the performances. Later he also acknowledges the drivers of the trucks and buses. Too many fans don’t realize the dozens of people it takes to tour a show. Kudos to JB for saluting those in the shadows. I managed a venue for 20 years, and yes, Jackson did perform there and do this song as an encore.

[@marlamoran2264]

My kids (in their 20s) discovered his music and are loving it! They don’t make it like this anymore

[@andrewkelley434]

This man is one of THE most respected talents in the music industry. Not one person has a bad thing to say about him. Another amazing song by him is "The Pretender."

[@88wildcat]

I think Daryl Hannah probably has a bad thing or two to say about him but other than that your point is well taken.

[@LeftCoastStephen]

The origin of the line “before you come for this piano” comes from him playing for the roadies as they did their work.

[@janet8127]

Rosemary Butler is the female vocalist. I saw Jackson Browne in the UK when he opened for Joni Mitchell in the very early 70s ❤ big fan ever since then.

I was lucky enough to be a local roadie for a couple of big musicians Phil Collins and Brittney Spears. I did Phi's show first, and I was completely amazed at the process. There were about 7or 8 traveling roadies, and those guys were thoroughly professional. They knew where every piece of the set went, down to the pins in the rigging.

[@marcotrinchini4615]

She is so lovely.

[@keithfriedman]

For my money the greatest song ever written.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Wow you totally nailed it. I love this so much that I bought the single in high school, because I couldn't wait for it to come on the radio again and literally you would play the load out on site a and then we were so good or at least I was really good at vinyl back then and so you would right when I got to the end you would lift a needle up and then flip the 45 RPM single over with your left hand and immediately put the needle down not at the beginning of the leader but on the first group where the song started and you would simulate continuity.

[@hongfang2348]

Jackson is one of the great singer/songwriters, top; 10 IMO. He wrote songs with deep lyrics, just a magnificent artist. Any knowledge of 1970s music must include Jackson Browne. Although his career stretched well beyond the 70s (and he is still singing), this decade was his peak.

[@rocketsauce5067]

You are a beautiful bright spirit. Thank you for your uplifting spirit.

[@brendamilloy2557]

Jackson (triply blessed as a singer, songwriter and that glorious hair) wrote the first part - The Load Out and the second half, Stay, first recorded by Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs. David Lindley (RIP) is playing a lap steel guitar and also sang the falsetto bit during the "Stay" part. Rosemary Butler is the woman with the Voice! I loved hearing you use your own road experiences to connect with what the song is about. The sadness? Yeah, I feel it too. Perhaps because of all the time it takes to travel, set up then dismantle a major traveling band and the only time that isn't enough is the time they are actually performing: also being separated from your love, your family would evoke feelings of sadness. What a musician's dilema! To want to go out and play your music and make people happy but regretting the time away from the ones you love. Fantastic reaction, thank you!

[@brianmullins5824]

Don't forget the impossible good looks as well

[@88wildcat]

The best way I know of to explain Jackson Browne's songwriting ability is that he wrote the song These Days when he was sixteen and Gregg Allman covered it with a pre-Allman Brothers band called The Hourglass on their first album.

[@skyraider1656]

Knowing what roadies go through for their respective artists, it made me happy to see what TS did for her truck drivers as well as her background singers and dancer on her latest tour. That explains why her people are so loyal.

Maurice Williams wrote it the early 1950s and recorded it with the Zodiacs in 1960 and was a #1 chart topper.

My husband has been a major lighting guy for decades. It is a complicated life, full of longing, happiness for the work and worry about all the “behind the scenes folks”. It’s a loose, wonderfully disfunctional family. He also had the pleasure of working for Jackson on the Blues Tour. He is a very generous and down to earth artist.

[@terrycallahan9576]

I was a DJ back in the days before the "digital revolution". I loaded/unloaded multiple crates of vinyl albums/singles, in addition to amps, mixers and GIANT touring speakers. The Load Out/Stay was the song I played at the end of EVERY gig (wedding receptions, Christmas parties, class reunions, etc.). The song(s) were more popular then because Browne had a string of albums/singles in that era. People at the gatherings liked the song because they could start out slow-dancing and then switch to a faster rhythm at the end. I loved it because (as you so eloquently pointed out) the lyrics are dedicated to the roadies, the heroes behind the stars. Today, DJs can put everything they need for a gig in a small toolbox thanks to the advances in electronics and digital recordings. However, due to the elaborate stage setups at major concerts, the song is still relevant. Thanks for the reaction. Brought back a lot of memories!

[@DiJulioCreative]

Britt! You are so adorable! I’m just now discovering you. And I’m so glad you’re discovering Jackson Browne. I have listened to and loved his music and lyrics for years. Jackson Browne did indeed write The Load Out and rewrote some of the lyrics to Stay - originally written by Maurice Williams in the 60s - for his 1978 tour. Love you, girl!

The word for Jackson Browne is “smooth”. He’s a gifted singer, songwriter and producer who has collaborated for decades with many other artists. He wrote one of my favorite songs “Doctor my Eyes” when he was 16. Complex lyrics, great storytelling, and great showcasing of all the band members in this song make it a fan favorite. RIP to David Linley the very gifted steel guitar player. The movie about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons that you’re thinking of was Jersey Boys, where you first heard “Stay”. The song was written by Maurice Williams and recorded by him and his group the Zodiacs in 1960 originally, but also by The Four Seasons, Buddy Holly and Jackson Browne.
