I love this CD!

This CD is an excellent retrospective of Jackson Browne's career. Jackson Browne has always been one of my favorite singers and songwriters. There is so much sincerity and passion in his voice. This CD features most of his hits. I would liked to have seen his lively duet with Clarence Cleamons Your Friend of Mine on here and also the song Call It A Loan, but I was pleased with what I heard.

I love Jackson Browne's song The Pretender. The lyrics about struggling to make a living while trying to find someone to love you are as moving today as they were 30 years ago when the song came out. Doctor My Eyes and Running on Empty are just classic songs that I will never get tired of listening to. I love the romantic quality of the song Tender is the Night and Somebodys Baby. I was glad to hear Lawyers In Love on here. It is a great song about the restless political climate in the US in the early 80's.

Jackson Browne has never been afraid to address social issues in his music like in the song In the Shape of A Heart which is about domestic abuse. In America is a very thoughtful song that reminds us for that the price for our freedom comes at someone's else expense. The Very Best Of Jackson Browne is an absolute pleasure to listen to.
