The crowd cheering at the end is not a dramatic effect - the entire Running on Empty album was recorded live, he was writing the songs on tour and then performing them. The versions are all from different shows during the tour. Jackson Browne is a brilliant songwriter with a gorgeous voice. He is close with all the Laurel Canyon musicians - Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young, Joni Mitchell, the Eagles. The Eagles song "Take It Easy" was written by Jackson Browne, but he only had the first verse and the chorus. He was stuck there, so he gave it to his friend, Glen Frey, who added the second and third verses and made the song into a huge hit from the Eagles' eponymously titled first album.

He has stated that this song was partially inspired by his memory of her, and since her death he'd felt that he was 'running on empty' and without purpose.

Jackson Browne is an outstanding musician, singer, songwriter. Running on Empty is one of my favorite songs by Jackson. It was used in the movie Running on Empty, which is based on a true story of a couple who are fleeing authorities due to their anti war activities. It’s actually a pretty good movie. The other song by Jackson is the Load Out, written about the many people who set up and take down equipment etc for concerts. So glad you’re reacting to Jackson Browne. You will want to do more. Thank you. 👏👏🇨🇦

I also like grunge and some of the indy-alt stuff from the 90s. Some nu-metal from the 00s. Not to mention metal from the 70s-90s. Even a smidge of country (mostly 70s) and some rap/hip-hop. All that to say that there are wonderful styles of music, and acts, from pretty much any decade (except for maybe the 30s. I can't find much compelling, personally, from that decade.)

When I first heard this song (circa 1978) I never once thought it had anything to do with being 'on the road' with a band. I always thought it was about a man looking back on his life, and seeing that he NEVER knew where he was going, and when he looked around at those who used to give him strength (direction) he finally came to realize that even they honestly did not know where they were going to end up.

Yes, Phil, the 70's are filled with tons of great music and bands. Some bands you are yet to discover. Having 45 years of music experience I consider the 70's for the most part the rock decade and the 80 the metal decade. This song "Running On Empty" is a popular metaphor for being exhausted, but the phrase had a much more literal meaning for Browne when it came to him. Browne wrote it while he was driving back and forth to the studio each day to make his album The Pretender. He told Rolling Stone: "I was always driving around with no gas in the car, I just never bothered to fill up the tank because - how far was it anyway? Just a few blocks."

He was very open and easy to talk to, and gave me advice on how to navigate the pitfalls of dealing with record companies. He played me some songs from a new album that he was working on at the time. One in particular was called Too Many Angels. He also gave me a glimpse into his writing process and played me some ideas from a cassette player he used to make sure he didn’t forget his ideas. I wonder if he still has that cassette player? I still have mine. Please do a reaction on Doctor My Eyes which is one of his two top 10 hits. Believe it or not he never had a number one which really surprises me because he’s the real deal. 🕊❤️🎼

Oh no, this was live. This whole album was recorded on the road; the stuff that's not live was laid down in hotel rooms and spaces they found while touring. Jackson was one of the Laurel Canyon singer-songwriter population in the 70's, along with Joni Mitchell, CSN, James Taylor, etc. When I was in high school at Immaculate Heart (which is near Laurel Canyon) one of the students, a girl named Kiki, died in a car accident. She was a stone Jackson Browne fan, so her friends went to his house and papered his fence and gate with notes begging him to come to her memorial at the school. Wait for it... HE CAME. He strode in with his guitar, and her best friend burst into tears, crying, "He came! He came!" It was heartbreaking and wonderful. This is one of the theme songs of my youth. I came of age in the 70's, and this music is like the blood in my veins, I know it so well. I finally got to see Jackson perform onstage in Santa Cruz in the 90's, and there were only two songs that whole night that didn't have some deep personal memory attached to them. He's a fantastic storyteller, one of our great voices. Do explore his work more!

Outstanding songwriter and musician! So happy you’re finally hearing him. He co wrote with the Eagles on some of their titles (Take it Easy) and has a really profound song “Doctor my Eyes” that he wrote at 16. He has a wonderful song about being on road “The Load Out / Stay” ( live) you should check out.

Jackson Browne is brilliant! Everything from thoughtful lyrics to his delivery of a song and the band also it's all A+! Keep digging and you will feel the same! Thank you for this

This is one of the very few artists I have alluded to previously where live performances are concerned. Jackson Browne is a genius. A lot of what you hear on some of his best work was recorded on his tour bus. One of the most unique artists because live is how he worked. Here is a tidbit of trivia. He was roommates with Glen Frey before the Eagles and gave him one of the Eagles early hits, Take It Easy. His catalog is extensive. You won’t run out of masterpieces any time soon. Before you get caught up in the popular songs and well known hits, I hope you’ll take a little time to listen to 2 songs that aren’t hits, but showcase ability to connect with an audience and really touch the heart. Those songs are Love Needs A Heart and That Girl Could Sing. After that, Boulevard, Somebody’s Baby, Lawyers In Love, The Loadout/Stay and many others. Much Love ❤️
