Jackson Browne "Before the Deluge” - Downstream 2021

[@kc2bob252]

I took my 16 year old son to see his first Jackson Browne performance at the Beacon, NYC. He sat in the theater with a crowd averaging 50 - 75 years old. He sang every word to every song and turned around to me and said "thank you for being my dad", brought tears to my eyes and I realized I had raised him better than I could've imagined and on the music of Jackson Browne. Many years earlier (1986), I saw JB at the Hammersmith Odeon in London. I was trying to get into the backstage party, the security guys were roughing me up. Jackson was walking by and saw the ruckus, he stopped, reprimanded the security, took me and my girlfriend into the party, gave us beer and introduced us to Paul Rogers and Bad Company. We talked for a good while and had a lot of fun. A genuine, beautiful soul, poet and musical genius. Thank you for the tunes and the inspiration.

[@jeanmills4745]

I was lucky enough to see JB at The Hammersmith Odeon in London a few decades ago then more recently at Birmingham Symphony Hall. He's just brilliant and I never ever tire of his soulful, insightful, beautiful lyrics and music. Thank you for giving and showing us so so much ❤️

[@ellenmahony2457]

My husband & I took our 2 grown sons to the Beacon to this concert! They grew up listening to JB with us! Perhaps we were at the Sammie concert, @ Bob Stevenson? JB is my all time favorite singer/songwriter ( next to my son!)

[@ellenmahony2457]

How lucky were you?

[@adessaparker6581]

That's a beautiful story. I saw him at the same theatre in 96 and even Jackson would admit that theatre was horrible! I wanted to see him so bad and I could hardly hear him. With that said, I had such a wonderful boyfriend who made it happen and I still have the tee shirt. Praise Jesus for good boyfriends! It was the only thing I ever wanted so it was still fabulous. I'd love to see him again.

It's funny, because this was released only 5 years after Woodstock actually happened, yet he was writing as if it were 50 years prior, such was the pace of changes back then (as well as now, I guess?). Of course, being only 18 at that time, 5 years seemed like an eternity to me anyway.

[@davidburne9477]

I’ve often been moved to think that Jackson and his good friend Warren Zevon were aliens transported here from another time, such is the prescience of the lyrics of their songs. Perhaps there’s a simpler answer - that the words are timeless. I dunno. That’s what life’s for, right, to give us time to figure some small part of it out.

After all these years, I remember this man, a poet together with his band. He was sharing his messages with a crowd of people in Bangor, Maine. In the throng, he somehow noticed my little one. Michelle was 3 years old, a tow head bouncing around in her cool jean overalls. Dancing. He asked me to bring her down & his eyes twinkled as she became a star and danced on his stage to the beautiful music he had created. Jackson Brown. What a wonderful, shining soul you have! A treasured memory from 1973 that I wanted to share. Thank-you!

Ah, Jackson, we've grown older together. How reassuring tonight to be once again reminded of simpler truths...much like looking down at a lyrical compass. I've listened over the years, yet this evening's smile reflects a new joy: I am here because my 39 year-old son sent me. From hundreds of miles away he writes, "The good spirit is still here...let our feathers never grow torn and tattered!" and I know that some things turn out just fine.

[@Mr05Chuck]

I was in Kathmandu in 1976. It was late at night in the old city. We trying to find our way in a dark maze of little streets. It was dark and we were lost looking for a restaurant called “Monk’s Pleasure Palace”. We had heard they served hash cake and special hash tea. We were about to give up cause we were scared we were lost in a dangerous part of the city. Suddenly we heard Before the Deluge in the distance. We rounded a corner and could tell the music was coming out a window covered with a sheet of bright light. We headed up some stairs and opened a door that led us into a room of bright colors and people laughing and chatting from many nations. Yes, we had the tea and cake. Thanks for guiding us Jackson.

[@paullittle9353]

I have been listening to this Jackson Browne song for the best part of my life. This recording with Val McCallum has got to be the best. Jackson's vocals have not lost the sincerity of his written words. Val's guitar mastery is unmatched. There are not too many musicians that sound as good or better than they did 50 years ago. Jackson Browne is one of them!

I can’t recall life without Jackson Browne’s music. His career got off the ground right after I was born and I literally grew up with his music.

I suspect his view of the world and his deep feeling music shaped part of my worldview and certainly my own quest for trying to understand the world and the emotions therein. I was that 5 or so year old trying to figure out the meaning of Fountain of Sorrow, spending hours thinking about it all.

Hello Laura..

Jackson Browne's music has only grown more poignant and a blessing living in this increasingly miserable world.

He is the poet of rock you listen to him and just drift away back to the times of our youth

[@howardgray9068]

Ain't nothing better than listening to Jackson Browne when you're relaxing and just let his amazing music wash over you...Magical.

[@janespurgeon3658]

He sounds as good now as when I first started listening. 1975! By far my favorite!

[@sanchezgtrs1]

Hey guys “that performance is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard! Y’all are amazing & I am so blessed to know you & work with you ! I love you you both always!!!

I lost my childhood farm of 48 yrs when I found my mom dead but this is one of few things that i still feel and care about. Had a cow on that farm named girl for 16 yrs told her goodbye and her eyes watered.

[@sethcashman1011]

Two of my favorite people to ever pick up a musical instrument, in the same room together, playing one of my favorite songs. How on earth could it get any better than this?

[@placjac]

Jackson Browne should get the Noble Prize for this one, for sure

[@Ettesun]

So many years of loving this musician/poet. I will always treasure seeing him live and meeting him forty years ago. He’s still number one, right up there with George Harrison. Thankful to be in this world with such a treasure. 🙏🏽💙🙏🏽

I have been a fan for many years. For my 23rd birthday (1978) my friend bought me tickets to Mountain Aire in Angels Camp Ca. Jackson Browne, Jimmy Buffett and Warren Zevon. GREAT concert!

[@etorria1675]

Certainly one of his most beautiful songs and that crosses the years without taking a wrinkle! Thank you for all the love that we pass on. Friendships from France (Bordeaux)

[@mikedolan-e6o]

Jackson Brown remains a fantastic artist and writer. Thank you .

[@kerithmccoy3060]

Apart from "Take it Easy" by the Eagles in 1972, this was the first Jackson Browne some I heard. It was playing on the PA at a Yes/Gryphon concert I attended at Newcastle City Hall in 1974. That same day, I'd read the Melody Maker review of the album ("Late for the Sky") and knew that I was listening to the song I'd read about that day. I went and bought the album and was hooked. Thank you Jackson Browne, stay well.

[@dominiquetabiowona1892]

JB Is one of the few whose lyric and musical art crosses the ages ... And especially for '' before the deluge'', the current global context lends itself to it. I grew up with it and I age with it ... Remain blessed guys!!!

[@Napewastewin]

Jackson - what is it like to be loved by so many? I am just one of them who do - love - you! Your voice has had and still is, so clear and truthful - it is one of those things that keeps me sane - a matter of opinion for many - after these 75 years - of highs and lows - you have always been there!
