I've never been drawn to Jackson Browne.Without ever really listening to him. I'm prone to blind prejudice the same as the next man. The man wrote These Days, one of my favourite songs but generally I expect blandness. An acceptance that the excitemnt of youth is over. That it's time to knuckle down to mortgage and bills. To do whatever society expects you to.
Blind prejudice perhaps but a couple of tracks of Running On Empty convinced me there was grounds for prejudiced. I found this BORING! Beyond belief. If life is a choice between The New York Dolls and the likes of Jackson Browne then I'm in the Dolls corner. Sponging down their bloodied mouth. Urging them back into the fight against blandness.
