JACKSON BROWNE - MAIN POINT 1973
JACKSON BROWNE with DAVID LINDLEY
The Main Point 1973 [no label, 1CD]
Live at The Main Point, Bryn Mawr PA, August 15, 1973. Excellent pre-FM stereo.
The set opened with Take It Easy, a song that is associated with The Eagles although not many remember that Browne had co-written it with The Eagles’ Glenn Frey. The other new songs were These Days, Colors Of The Sun and Red Neck Friend. Take It Easy might also be the theme for the night as Browne was in good humour, especially when he covered Del Shannon’s Runaway, with the audience happily joining in. Browne might not have been an activist that night but he sure brought a smile to many faces and probably won over many new fans (if they weren’t already).
