What a show! Jackson was amazing as always. I see him virtually every time he comes through Austin. As a long time fan, and having worn out his first 3 records (which I consider all time classics), I was ecstatic that he played significant tunes from Saturate, For Everyman and Late For the Sky. It was a 3 hour show with a 20 minute break, so a real robust show! 5 start all the way!

I've seen Jackson numerous times in my life, but this performance was absolutely the best! The Grand Ole Opry was the perfect venue, and my seats were very close to the stage where he sits at the piano. HEAVEN!! The set list (28 songs) was great, and he played nearly all of my favorite songs for three hours of bliss. I wept as he played For a Dancer, which becomes more and more poignant as I turned 70 this just before this concert. At 74, Jackson's voice and musical talents are as strong as ever. I am so blessed to have lived during the same time as Jackson Browne. Thank you, Jackson for making my life more complete.

Jackson came out "on time", like he always does, with a fantastic smile and telling the audience how happy he and the band are to be at Red Rocks on the last night of his tour and that he and the band have "saved" special energy to really put on a special show.
He sounds AMAZING, just like he sounded in his early days, and he shared comments like, "this next song is 50 years old"! He played his Heart out and sang so perfect, like the perfectionist that he has always been. What a true blessing for me to be in his presence and "soak in" the meaning of his words in all his iconic songs and listen to his comments on why he wrote the particular song that he was playing next!
He truly is a First Class Songwriter and Artist and I'm truly Blessed to feel the "soulful" experience listening to him sing "Live", and watch his emotions of Joy that he expressed with his love for performing.

About Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne was born in Heidelberg, Germany (his father was an American serviceman stationed in Germany), but moved to the Highland Park district of Los Angeles, California at an early age and began singing folk music locally. In 1966, his career began by joining the The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
A precociously talented songwriter, Browne signed a publishing contract with Nina Music, and his songs were performed by Tom Rush, Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, the Byrds and Steve Noonan, among others.
After moving to Greenwich Village, New York, Browne worked, for a brief period, in Tim Buckley's back-up band and on Nico's Chelsea Girl. After leaving New York City, Browne formed a folk band with Ned Doheney and Jack Wilce.
In 1971, Browne signed with Asylum Records and released Jackson Browne (1972), which included "Doctor My Eyes", a major hit. He didn't sustain pop success, though, and his next album, For Everyman (1973), while considered of high quality, was a commercial failure.
Late for the Sky (1974) established a significant audience for Browne, and fans and critics often consider this Browne's best album. Highlights include the searching title song, the elegiac "For a Dancer" and apocalyptic "Before the Deluge", the pure arrangements featuring David Lindley's evocative violin and guitar playing, and the Magritte-inspired cover. The title track was also featured in Martin Scorsese's film, Taxi Driver.
Browne released his breakthrough album, The Pretender (1976) soon after the suicide of his wife, Phyllis. Featuring livelier production by Jon Landau, the title song is a vividly described account of romanticism in a possibly losing battle with the realities of day-to-day life.
During this time, Browne produced and played on Warren Zevon's first two Asylum albums.
Browne began recording his next LP while on tour, and Running on Empty (1977) became his biggest commercial success. Breaking the usual conventions for a live album, it was truly made on the road, including tracks recorded on buses and in hotel rooms, with none of the songs having appeared on any of his prior albums. Running on Empty contains many renowned songs, such as the propulsive title track (Browne's biggest hit single), "The Road", "Rosie", and "The Load-Out/Stay" (Browne's affectionate and knowing send-off to his concert audiences).
In 1979, Browne was a founding member of Musicians United for Safe Energy.
Browne achieved less critical acclaim with Hold Out (1980), although it was commercially successful--his only number 1 record, and with his hit single "Somebody's Baby" from the Fast Times at Ridgemont High soundtrack. Lawyers in Love followed in 1983 and contained hints of a more political focus, especially in the mysteriously satirical title track.
Political protest came out full force in Lives in the Balance (1986), an overt condemnation of Reaganism and American policy in Central America. Flavored with new instrumental textures, it was a huge success with Browne fans, though not with mainstream audiences. World in Motion (1989) was even more politically-oriented and polarizing. Browne frequently played for causes he believed in, including Amnesty International (making several appearances on the 1986 A Conspiracy of Hope Tour), Farm Aid, and the Christic Institute.
After four years of silence and a break-up with his girlfriend, actress Daryl Hannah, Browne returned with I'm Alive, a critically acclaimed album with a more personal perspective that had no hits but still sold respectably. Looking East (1996) was released soon after, but was not as successful critically or commercially. The Naked Ride Home was released in 2002. On 11 May 2003, Jackson Browne made a celebrity guest star debut on the FOX series The Simpsons.
As a whole, Browne's work is marked by compelling melodies, simple, honest, and insightful lyrics, and a flair for composition rarely seen in the world of rock and roll. He is often referred to as "a thinking man's rock star."
Browne was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004. He also participated in the Vote for Change tour in October 2004, playing a series of concerts in American swing states. These concerts were organized by MoveOn.org with the general goal of mobilizing people to vote in that year's Presidential campaign. Browne's appearances were joint performances with Bonnie Raitt and Keb' Mo', and in one instance with Bruce Springsteen. Three of Browne's albums were selected by Rolling Stone magazine as among its choices for the 500 best albums of all time.
Browne's two most recent albums are "Solo Acoustic, Vol. 1", released in the U.S. on October 11th, 2005, and "Solo Acoustic, Vol. 2", released in the U.S. on February 19, 2008, both on Inside Recordings. The "Vol. 1" album consists of live recordings of eleven previously released tracks and "The Birds of St. Marks," a song that does not appear on any of Browne's studio albums. The "Vol. 2" album contains roughly the same mix of twelve songs (popular hits vs. deep cuts). Interestingly, both albums also contain separately tracked "intros" to some songs, giving a brief glimpse of the intimacy between artist and audience at the shows where the songs were recorded.
