I am deeply saddened by David Lindley's passing - his guitar, violin and other instruments helped to define much of Jackson Browne's early catalogue of great songs. He will be sorely missed - may he Rest In Peace
Agreed. He was the one I looked up with so many songs, decades ago, to find out who was playing with Jackson. Now I find out he’s been on many more of my favorite songs by others -- Ronstadt, Leonard Cohen, Bonnie Raitt. ❤
Dave will be greatly missed. He was in a class by himself & I’m so grateful for the times I got to hear him perform and for having had the chance to meet him in Gibsons, BC & talk with him for a few minutes. Unparalleled musician and also a lovely human.
Call it a Loan. I remember where I was when this song came out (pregnant and my marriage breaking up). Still I remember this as a beautiful song. So well written and touches the heart, even as it’s breaking.
My Lord, how gorgeous he and Jackson sounded together. David Lindley was such an inspiration to me as a musician and a listener. The infinite beauty of music seemed to flow through him. He will be very missed.
I saw David Lindley with Jackson Browne in the mid 1970's at U of Notre Dame. Despite the years passed since, I remember that show well...the wonderful woman I was with, Jackson's singing and David's guitar work. Every so often we all get lucky to see an artist perform whose music is so much more than just another concert in a life of going to concerts. Thank you David Lindley, you will not be forgotten ever by this fan!
Hello 👋 Lee Hurst How're you doing, it's been a long journey, and I'm nothing without amazing fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness, All love to you and yours ❤️
My “Amber” song. The only true love that I have ever had in my life or will ever have again. Funny how a child can “invade and divide” the darkness we have inside. She was a very special “Precious Princess” at a time in my life I really needed it. Oh, how a little girl can change a man for all the days of his life. It’s a smile only he knows about. She was “meant to play a part in the design of my desperate heart.”❤ Love her for all time like only a father can love a daughter. My heart has never been as pure since her loved cleansed my heart ……..
Hello 👋 Liz margolis How're you doing. Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness It's nice meeting you here.
For Jackson, I'm pretty sure one of the greatest benefits of playing so much with David was that, no matter how many times they played the same song to different audiences, David would play something new, great, unexpected, appropriate, and inspiring. Feel free to add your own adjectives.
I was lucky enough to hear Jackson and David perform this song acoustically I believe in 2010. I later saw David solo and that was awesome and he came out afterwards and it was cool to meet him. This is a huge loss what has left me deeply saddened.
I find it tough to watch videos of musicians who have recently passed. I guess I need time to process their death. But David’s death feels different, maybe because he never sought or got the acclaim he deserved and he seemed good with that. It was the music that was important. Gonna miss you David Lindley, you were one of my heroes.

2 musical giants have left here, and will meet up in the best of places.... David is just a masterful player adding to everything,and brightening the colors,like the best sunset or sunrise... even though he hasn't been in Jackson's band for awhile, that calmness has been continued by Greg leisz and Val McCallum.... glad I got to see Mr. Dave so much with Jackson, Ry,El rayo x,Hani nasser and wally ingram... Henry kaiser and him just tear it up... thanks for the amazing sounds of your soul... you did amazing here,leaving us better than you found us .. we are blessed to have crossed paths
I was fortunate to see JB and DL play on two occasions. Great artists both. However, can you believe I passed on a chance to see JB and Linda Ronstadt in 1973 or 74 when they were touring colleges together. I hope whatever I did that night was worth it.
@@christinemidora9514 Are you sure. I know he has some heath issues but I haven't heard that he passed. There was David Lasley a back up singer for James Taylor that passed away on Dec 9, 2021.
Oh, but not too forget Jamaica say you will, our lady of the well, for Everyman, here come those tears again,late for the sky, Rosie,of missing persons.....Jackson has written a lot....THESE DAYS......ohmygawd......even as a professional player,producer,composer of serial compositions,guitar player who is into varese,Stravinsky, Bach,slonimsky,Messiaen....I cherish Jackson Browne‘s music.It is a bit like a „Mental Spliff for the Soul“......A nice bourbon etc......I love his songs.They are ingrained in my system.
My favorite of Jackson's is "That Girl Could Sing" ; I kinda had one like that for a short time. And there's Lindley's slide guitar solo, which sounds like, as Jackson put it, "a seal moaning in heat". (We will have to take Jackson's word for knowing what a seal in heat sounds like 🤔🤣).

The intro to this kills me every time, and their picking is so precise! Love the polyester king and Jackson. I've seen JB perform three times. Maybe I'll squeeze one more in as I'm a young 75.

David Lindley shaped my love of music from just a little boy. His falsetto part in Stay absolutely mesmerized me as a child. I got the pleasure of being a self taught guitarist by watching old videos of him. Thank you for a life of music Mr Lindley. You are the GOAT
Never forget seeing Jackson Browne two times. Once on the Running On Empty Tour, and an unbelievable free concert in Jacksonville, FL. The posers of today wish they could produce music like this.
I still have my program from "summer tour '77" which of course became Running on Empty. What a great show. I'm lucky to have grown up in the San Francisco Bay area. Jackson and many others played so often. He is the music of my life.
Mad about that guy in white T-shirt behind David, sitting idly, with almost bored looking. You're in the presence of Greatness buddy! Snap out of it!!! I'd pay a lot to be there :-( What a greatness!!!!!
There was a lot of greatness during the days that produced this my friend. I doubt that anyone was blase about it. They are also concentrating and doing what they need to do. I doubt Mr. Brown or Mr. Lindley would ever have a bored person in thier band my friend.
this makes me think of the 70s when he Buffalo Springfield and Crosby Stills Nash and Young were giving all of us beautiful songs back to back ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
If JB has written this from personal experience, as I suspect he has, I don't know how he gets through it onstage without cracking up. The guilt and desolation are almost tangible.... Still I'm sure it's a bet that most of us have lost at some time in our lives. Thank you Jackson for putting it into words for us.....
Hello 👋 Ranger How're you doing. Thanks for this comment, I'm nothing without fans like you who appreciate my musical craftiness It's nice meeting you here.
J Browne's voice gives out at end of every line, but David Lyndley's playing will ALWAYS be spot on, the perfect a ccompaniment to this song and dozens of Browne's earlier tun es
His long time organ/keyboard/background singer Jeff Young passed away recently also. A tough time for Jackson and his other bandmates, Mark Goldenberg guitar, Kevin McCormick bass, Shannon Forrest drums. I’ve heard they were like family and still get together for a party once a year with newer and older members too.

You have being a amazing fan all this while and I really appreciate that, your support and also showing me deep love on my music ❤️big thank to you ❤️🙏 I will be expecting you to send me a text on my mail below and also feel free to send me text
I get home after work late and unwind to this music and think to myself how lucky am I after so many years of not hearing this music to have remembered why I listened to it so long ago. Its a nice feeling to hear music and appreciate it again. I think I appreciate hearing the songs more from an older perspective. I always listen twice as I get lost in the instrumental almost loosing sight of the singing then I listen to the song being sung and can hardly hear the instrumental as both are superb.
