I consider some albums as "works" this is one of those albums. The out of studio settings in which these tracks were captured makes this particular album a timeless part of my life since i was about 13. I lestin to this album at least in part on a weekly/biweekly basis. I dont think my enjoyment of this fantastic album will ever wain. And its the only Jackson Browne album I own. The singles released to the radio such as The Load Out/ Stay....have grown on me as time has passed I did not care for this song at first. As the years go by it speaks to me in a new way of the loneliness of an artist and the pain of the end of a performance.....there's always a gap that feels like a lonely empty abyss. This album speaks to the young and old. The brave and the fallible, the highs and the lows, the Strangers you meet and the old friends that stick around. This album is a friend of mine. Enjoy!
