JACKSON BROWNE The Load Out/ Stay (Live BBC 1978) Reaction

[@williethebeerman]

The woman singing is the legendary Rosemary Butler. The guy playing the lap steel guitar, and singing falsetto is the highly underrated, master of all string instruments, David Lindley.

[@lisawall3386]

Yes! The one and only David Lindley. His voice is also quite remarkable.

[@Chess8548]

David Lindley is a master on the strings. Saw him live with Jackson Browne in the 70’s. They did an acoustic version of “The Dancer” (Browne on the grand piano and Lindley on a metallic blue violin) that killed!

[@petercharron3268]

David Lindley passed a few months ago. Of course Jackson is a song writer legend.

[@elceenomoun8115]

With Jim Gordon on drums.

[@donboger193]

David was phenomenal musician and King of Strings and Polyester. But he was also a really good guy too. He has been gone for little over a year now and this may sound stupid but for me, that was the day the music died. So many other wonderful people to listen to, but there will never be another quite like Mr. Dave.

[@kimberlystark3944]

This performance takes me on such a magical journey! ❤

[@juanitaduval9856]

Hhe is just one of our legends during the 70s . We had the best music❤

[@leeannies-tears369]

I love being with you all and I love you Lowell ❤ thanks

[@Randsurfer]

Amazing songwriter/singer. Best hair in popular music.

[@pamstuckey8349]

My Millenial daughter agrees re: the hair!

[@fabjen1961]

Enough cannot be said about that glorious weirdo, David Linley. What a voice, what a musician.

[@sarahgarner5425]

Jackson is easy on the ears and the eyes. Love his music and lyrics. He's a true artist.

[@tomcollens4621]

Great, great rendition. I do so love Jackson Browne!!!

[@Calinicus72]

These two songs should never be played separately, IMO.

[@VroodenTheGreat]

A song made specifically to be the encore... it's GENIUS!

[@Dr3amtime]

Another take of this song was chosen for the Running on Empty album, and I prefer it slightly; I think Lindley's guitar and falsetto during the doo-wop section of stay are even more on point.

[@ednielsen3331]

Agreed. There are a couple of small changes in the lyrics as well. Though this is excellent, I prefer the original (the one on the Running on Empty album),

[@steveullrich7737]

Such talented musicians and great songwriting.

[@patanderson5716]

The absolutely best final song of any concert!

[@fabjen1961]

The world needs more David Lindleys.

[@tomcollens4621]

David Lindley was sooooo great!

[@donalddingler1263]

David Lindly prince of polyester. This guy can literally play about seventy string instruments, total genius.

[@hippiejoe969]

This is such a great song and an awesome tribute from Jackson and to his road crew and his fans. Jackson Browne The Pretender is a great song. He also wrote the song These Days which Gregg Allman recorded on his solo album, there is a video from the Gregg Allman and All My Friends Concert of the two of them singing These Days.

[@karenwalsh1143]

The pretender if you haven't already done it?

[@karenwalsh1143]

Man!!! I really do like watching you react to GOOD MUSIC and how much you appreciate it, 😊 I love it!

[@hippiejoe969]

@@karenwalsh1143 HI Karen I'm with you he's a great reactor, talks funny though lol anyway you've gotten connected to my comment so he's not going to see yours. Just wanted to let you know.

[@dagmar.6954]

Jackson Browne started his career writing songs for other artists such as the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (he was briefly a member in 1966) & the Eagles (Browne co-wrote "Take It Easy"). But in the 70's he started recording his own songs. He had a lot of hits 70's-80's such as "Doctor, My Eyes", "Rock Me on the Water", "Here Come Those Tears Again", "The Pretender", "Running on Empty", "Somebody's Baby", "Tender Is The Night" etc.

[@sallyg.125]

Jackson has a heart of gold. I grew up with him in my teens. Thanks for giving him the credit he deserves. He should have been a bigger star. Bob Seager and he had alot in common.

[@christinemosley1475]

Thank you! I had forgotten about "doctor, my eyes!"

[@michaelporter8053]

I would also like to add that we should not forget a very young Leland Sklar one of my all time bass heroes

[@randywissler9923]

I can't believe I forgot Leland played with Jackson. 😂

[@marybryan4168]

Yes need a week of Jackson Browne too

[@laurakali6522]

At least…..

[@lancevaughn432]

I’m a big David Lindley fan. He plays Pedal steel guitar, lap steel guitar, fiddle, another instruments. He played with Jackson Browne for years and Linda Ronstadt, and then form his own band David Lindley and El Rao X.

[@belindareese9453]

Love Jackson Browne. Saw him a few years back in a small intimate setting. He put on a one man show. You could literally request songs for him to play on the spot. Such a good storyteller and a very engaging person. Would love to hear The Pretender.

[@mikelombard21]

So glad you loved this. The load out is one of my favorite songs ever. And the transition into Stay is perfect. Together its some of the best music ever made. Even just best art ever made. The way it is about the roadies and the fans and that without 2/3rds of this equation he could not do what he does, is so perfectly expressed. Also just so you know Jackson Browne was a prolific songwriter. He wrote the song "Take it Easy" by The Eagles.

[@sandrariley5338]

Jackson Browne and Bob Seger are my 2 favourite singer songwriters. David Lindley is superb and 'the Lady' is Rosemary Butler, please check David Lindley's wonderful playing in 'Late For The Sky'.

[@miktoh]

A great songwriter and an amazing singer.

[@thelatenightbar]

That was fantastic, great tune, and the great David Lindley on slide guitar. thanks for sharing !

[@belindabarnett5646]

Jackson Browne is a true legend and icon yes legend even tho he's still alive one of my favorite artists ever thanks for the song and reaction❤❤🔥

[@denomane7962]

There's a statue of Jackson Brown next to Glen Fry ( of the Eagles) on a corner in Winslow Arizona where the song Take It Easy was mentioned . The town had a flat bed Ford sitting next to a mural on the brick wall . We just went there last summer and it was very cool to see . If anyone gets a chance they should google Winslow Arizona and check it out🤘

[@kympridham8267]

1 statue Jackson only

[@denomane7962]

@@kympridham8267 there were two there 2 years ago , I have pictures with both

[@jrogersdal]

Here Comes Those Tears Again is another great Jackson Browne song.

[@YvesGagnon-mm8pd]

a classic song

[@karenmandeville7116]

The Roadie's Anthem! Saw him do this live in St. Louis from the 4th row-magical!

[@AnonymousServant513]

Recorded at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD...I was there. The memory is refreshed every time I hear it. His masterpiece album imo, Late for the Sky... you will never stop....

[@reneeholcomb205]

That is my favorite song of his

[@karenc1564]

wow, thanks for this. it surely brings back memories. I bought the Running on Empty album just so I could play this song.

[@mstewart109]

Gosh I remember this guy and his songs. My yiung adult years. Great storyteller . More please !!

[@shroomhilda]

The only other one I can think of that acknowledge the crew is Moterhead, We Are The Road Crew.

Man!! I really like watching you react to GOOD MUSIC 🎶 AND HOW MUCH YOU APPRECIATE IT 😊 I LOVE IT ❤️

[@marylee7467]

One word- LEGEND! Just a brilliant performance. You brought me right back to hanging out by the high school's 2nd floor windows with my friends. Thanks so very much.

[@colincampbell4862]

would suggest a listen to Jackson's 'Bright Baby Blues' as well, not so well known by love the lyrics

[@todderickson2435]

My favorite Jackson Browne song(s), and one of my favorite songs, period. I love that you commented on his great tribute to his roadies, Pat. Such a class move on his part. Great reaction as always!

[@francesmeyer8478]

"Stay" privy by Maurice Williams and the Zodiac sometime in the 1950s

[@johnmrog]

Not just Bob Seger and Jackson Browne, but also The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Linda Rondstadt, and Warren Zevon. All hung out together and created together and played together in LA back in the 1970's.

[@lorienalberts8737]

To name few dont forget fogerty and springsteen etc

[@bobknightfolk]

@@lorienalberts8737 Don't forget Crosby, Stills, and Nash, John David Souther, and he also played with Nico from the Velvet Underground, They all lived in Laurel Canyon. Including Charles Manson, who was a guitarist and singer too, I believe.

[@Jihavoh777]

The roadies were a centerpiece of Journey’s Frontiers and Beyond video. We learned who they were and their personalities it was cool.

[@cog4life]

Just the best. 😊

[@ronhunt9396]

He was and still is smooooth

[@bebic7903]

You have to please, please react to "Running On Empty" from the same live BBC 1978 show. Same incredible talent with Rosemary Butler singing background and David Lindley on lap steel guitar. Please?

[@MrGettysburg44]

JB is a genius. "Late for the Sky" album is a masterpiece. STILL making superb music....his recent album album "Downhill From Everywhere" is excellent,

[@mikedineen7857]

I remember having a blast at his show back in the day. I saw him twice with Linda Rondstadt.

[@DebraBrown-dc8vg]

The second time I saw Jackson Browne it was at a small theater. Evidently the Arena had sold out with Bogus Ticket Scam. Jackson Browne had taken over this theater to preform in 12 sessions cuz he didn't want to disappoint his fans🥺 Also had a young female Performer with him and showing her the ropes. This theater had Stained Glass on the Box Seats. Well that Female Singer Phoebe Snow hit Notes performing a Jazz Renditions and CRACKED THE GLASS IN THE DECORATIVE GLASS.! SHOWERING THE PEOPLE IN THE SEATS BELOW 😅 WOULD EVEN MAKE ELLA FITZGERALD PROUD👍💯🎶❤

[@stillfierce1]

He wrote most of take it easy there is a statue of Jackson,"standing on the corner of Winslo n Arizona,as his truck broke down and the the lyrics come from his experience,another Laurel Canyon musician.My friend saw Jackson in Aust late 70's 80's.I always think of her when I see JB.the loadout is amazing on so many levels,unions,minimum wages and a band is nothing without an audience,he is so not a wanker.

[@flash1660]

That’s a classic

Jackson Browne's best song.

[@mikelombard21]

You seem new to Jackson Browne, he's unfortunately not as renowned as he should be. Just so you know Jackson Browne was a prolific songwriter before he was famous. He wrote the song "Take it Easy" by The Eagles.

[@MegaAloly]

amazing track mate

Motorhead also has a song for the roadies! We are the Road Crew 🤘😎🤘

It's no wonder sll of Jackson's peers wanted to perform with him. Hey wrote so many dongs other artists made famous including The Eagles take it easy.

[@robertwheatley5110]

No. It was done in studio, added live crowd noise. Listen to running on empty album.

[@kympridham8267]

Nope and the entire running on empty was live ....en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_on_Empty_(album)

[@waynethompson8906]

Not only was this done live, it was recorded on a consumer cassette deck. A Nakamichi 1000 and the recordings on the bus by a Nakamichi 600.

[@catzkeet4860]

Running on Empty is famous for being entirely recorded live with the sound of the wheels on the road incorporated into one of the tracks. It was Jackson Brownes hymn to the road, and the Load Out and Stay were his love letters to the roadies and the fans.
