- "I wrote 'These Days' before I met Gregg. He heard me play the song when we were first friends, I guess we were probably both 18," Jackson Browne tells Blackbird about Gregg Allman in this concert clip. "The way he did that song completely changed it, I think for me and for everybody... I could write a song like that but when it came time to singing it, Gregg really gave it a kind of graveness and gravity that the song can hold." Relive the magic of Gregg and Jackson performing "These Days" together for the first time, right here.
There will never be another Gregg Allman
At 60 years old and having been in the music business all my life, I can truly say losing Gregg was a pivotal moment in my life.....Rest in Music my brother
❤️
Gregg was, and will forever be a part of me...what makes me. Well said, Wensley
One of a kind
Made Magic for years!!
RIP Greg

Same here, and I'm older than you. :)
This might be the greatest ending to a song I’ve ever heard.
After Gregg's funeral, Jackson wanted to play, somewhere. He went to a place called Grant's Lounge, where the Brother's and everyone else played back in the'70's. He may have for all I know, was too young to go back then. Folks had a real shock that night. The talent that came there, for Gregg's memory was amazing. Thank Jackson. That was appreciated by everyone who just happened to be there that night. Adding, being Gregg's friend was not an easy thing for a long time. Have had some friends like that myself. Jackson is on helluva good man, will leave that there.
Thanks for that comment, it was good to read.
excellent -wish I had been there too
Must have been an experience to have been there.
I agree with you. I love Jackson Browne!
Grant's is still there and so is music. Y'all come see us on Poplar Street, Macon, Georgia.
I can't help but cry, so beautiful. RIP Gregg Allman you will never be forgotten.
I KNOW....SO SAD, BUT SO BEAUTIFUL

a men !
Whomever did a thumbs down on this one are about the most tone-deaf people on the planet. These are two of the greatest folk and bluesmen on it. Gregg Allman and Jackson Browne are the two prolific songwriters and musicians of the century.
If I could do more than agree ,I surely would. As it is, all i can do,is AGREE wholeheartedly. R.i.p. GREG. Thanks Jack's!!!
Agree 💯
It's cool, imagine their life ain't so good so..
@@vincentx845 Both Jackson Browne and Gregg Allman only come along once in a lifetime and so glad it was mine and all that truly loved these guys too 😍✌❤🌼
@@vincentx845 C=12J
Greg Allman. Got me through bad times after my return from VN. Makes my heart hurt knowing he’s not here. Amazing what a song can do for you.
thank you for your service sir
Thank you for your service. Gregg Allman got me thru everything till the day he died 😢 and he still does. Jackson Browne also got me thru a lot and still does. I try not to think about what could have been if Gregg was still here 😢 would be great 😢 but he's not. Good luck to you.✌️❤️🌼
Jackson belted out that Intro into the first verse.....and it made Gregg smile....LOVE IT !!
I noticed Gregg smiled it was a moving moment
thank you
t
Wow. The respect CJB gave Gregg on stage was beautiful. Just beautiful.😂
He was trying to do it in Gregg's style, that's why!
It was beautiful❣️
Hard to believe "those days" are over and over for good. We all had a good run, didn't we?
Sure did brother, me from LA now 70 many words can be said right now but the ones that come to mine now are sweet and meaningful little did we know it would last forever yes what a run it was..
@@stevenchowning9584 give me a call tony thrailkill 6154807112
These days will be better... positive vibes...be aware of the positive
Amen!
It ain't over till...
God I absolutely love the look and smile on Greg's face when Jackson starts to sing the song
I noticed that, too. I think he knew in that moment it was gonna be good.
A kind of twinkle. yes.
@@themistermax For sure and it most certainly was
It's everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💗 💖 💘 💝 💟 ☮️!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello Tina
How are you doing?
It’s nice meeting you here!
Man oh Man. It doesn't get any better. Jackson the songwriter and Gregg the blues interpreter. Gregg never stopped singing the blues no matter what the song was. From beginning to end , they are 2 of the greats.
Yes
The world has lost such a great talent. Miss Gregg so much😔.
when Gregg sings "I'm aware of them" at the end, it just brings chills. RIP Gregg
YES....AND SO MUCH LIKE MY LIFE....I HATE TO SAY THAT BUT IT IS TRUE. THAT'S WHY IT IS HARD TO LISTEN TO IT, BUT I DO OVER AND OVER. WE MUST FIND OUTSELVES IN THIS HORRIBLE WORKD WE LIVE IN NOW, THANK YOU BIDEN
Brings tears to me eyes ❤
First, these two legends together deserve millions of views and how there could even be 42 dislikes (trolls I'm sure), this music is irreplaceable and these legends are forever. Thank you Jackson and Gregg. I hope you're rocking & rolling in heaven Gregg!
❤✌❤✌
Sometimes people dislike just to cause a little rumble in the water. So you just ignore the rumbles and go on and enjoy yourself. Take the joy from it and discount the nonsense. Peace
@@gailremp8389 Thank you, I do. I just periodically like to bitch. 😊

Hello Helen
How are you doing?
It’s nice meeting you here!
Jack Pearson just laid down one of the sweetest slide tracks ive ever heard Greg staring at him priceless Jackson is a great songwriter and singer Man this was something else of a show..
YES, one of the best live shows ever, the talent there was truly amazing. And Jack Pearson playing that beautiful slide guitar back in the shadows w/ both Gregg and Jackson looking back at him. He's an incredible talent. I have listened to the tracks of that concert over and over since the CD came out, just love it!!
THANK YOU for telling us who the slide player was!! 👍👍👍
I could not tell with the shadows and dark stage (I was guessing Derek Trucks or Warren Haynes, LOL).
Thanks for supplying the slide players's name. I will not forget it.
Gregg Allman and Jackson Brown; two of my all-time favorites. Great memories of back in the 70's...riding in my 70 Dodge challenger while in the Marine Corps. I wore out my 8-track of each of them, i played them so much while cruising the roads of Eastern N. Carolina and along the Atlantic coast. Last saw Gregg play was in Pensacola, Florida in 2013 with Hank Williams jr. I'll never forget that night! I know he's playing still just on the other side of the vail that we cant see. But his light and energy lives on in all of us who cherished Greg! Thank you for presenting this video! Namaste!
Funny had all of Jackson Browns album's but the crowd hooted and hollered when Gregg sang. Just loved Gregg last of a dying generation. Best generation ever . LONG LIVE THE BABY BOOMERS
Our parents were the Greatest Generation!
gerry tierney so true!🎸🎸🎸
@@skismith39 I'M NOT A PARENT, I AM OLD...LOL
@@skismith39 BUT THANK GOD YOUR PARENTS INTRODUCED YOU TO THIS MUSIC, THE BEST MUSIC EVER WRITTEN AND SANG. OUR BELOVED FRIENDS
We are only old in our heads, unfortunately not our bodies.........
The best whiskey soaked empathic vocals ever! Rock on, Gregg!
Greg,, a true, gentle, blues man.. - Filled my heart with serenity.. - Jackson Browne,, I sang your songs so many years ago.. - Such different times now, but still singing your songs.. - Long for those days of self discovery, with the help of their music.. xo
Gregg sings it more bluesy. Brought me to tears. Love them both ❤️❤️❤️
Its absolutely ridiculous that an 18 year old could write a song as mature as this. Jackson genius. I do adore Allman's version.
KSC Clinic...Yes, I agree about Jackson Browne being so young and still writing a song that you would expect a much older person with a lot of experiences to write. This is the mark of a truly gifted writer. I heard Gregg's version way back in the 70's and he sang it to perfection, but I also like Glen Campbell's version too and if you haven't heard Glen's version I highly encourage anyone who reads this to check it out: th-cam.com/video/bvQ77PoNJ6E/w-d-xo.html. He does several more renditions of These Days, but I particularly like this one because Glen is a lot older and this song fits the kind of life that Glen had.
Amazing for sure
And Gregg Allman was 17 when he wrote Midnight Rider. Old souls.
Tom Rush sang that song -"These Days"!
I was just thinking the same thing, Jackson, at 18, amazing.
Gregg has such a deep God given talent. He has an amazing voice!! I love this song. I feel like it just might have been a true portrayal of how Gregg felt about his life especially towards the end of it. It really tear's at my heart when he sings "Please don't confront me with my failures, I'm aware of them." It brings tears to my eyes.
I love that line too.
"Please don't confront me with my failures, I'm aware of them." - well, I guess that's a kind of apology.
When JB sings he says “Don’t confront me with my failures, I have not forgotten them…”. That line has ALWAYS choked me up & resonated
Same here
thank you for putting the right words on here… Jackson Browne wrote this at 26 years old is incredibly young to have this view and words to pain the picture for us all!!!!
Makes me cry. Gregg's beautiful, melancholic, soulful voice affects me deeply.
Toni Francis....it hits me so close to home I make sure I have a few tissues every time I listen, which seems to be often these days.....
Toni Francis right back at ya, still numb 💕
Toni Francis exactly ❤️🔥🔥❤️
what it is..
Toni...agree wholeheartedly. No need to add to your comment, RIP Gregg
I am teared up , as this is a beautiful moment that will never ever happen again! RIP Greg, we miss you!❤Thank you,Jackson❤
Being a Peach Head for over 4 decades, I’m still in awe of the talent.
I am so thrilled to find this. My late husband was a huge Allman brothers fan and I love Jackson Browne. How I wish I could share this with him! These Days is a favorite of mine. Just epic!!
THIS HAS TO BE THE MOST TOUCHING PERFORMACES OF THESE TWO PEOPLE ON THE SAME STAGE, BROTHERS, I AM GLAD THIS HAPPENED, HISTORY HERE, THANKS FOR THE GREAT VIDEO THESE DAYS, COUSIN FIGEL
Gregg and Jackson sing this song so beautifully together... nothing like it!
So sweet...just love Gregg and Jackson. May this music live forever and ever. We are so sad Gregg is gone. Gonna take some time...
Two of my all time favorites didn't know for a long time they were friend's!! Play on forever Jackson, Gregg forever in our hearts!!
Oh my beautiful friend...i miss you.youve kept me calm all these years .. thank you Gregg for all the beautiful songs ..youve kept me sane ..love you and miss you 💕🙏
Forever one of my favorites. I played this over and over. This fine man. This wonderful, loving whole human being. How I love you Greg and your Music...Lives ON. Never old.
ME TOO, IT GRABS YOUR HEART....AND SOMETIMES IT IS JUST TOO MUCH... I CRY.
Hello metelica

Gregg Allman you will always be in my heart. Rest in Peace!
Jackson Browne, Stay a little longer! Love you too!
Stay a lot, lot longer Jackson Browne! RIP, Gregg Allman! Love you both!
Grew up listening to both of these artists back when we were all young.
Hello CJ
How are you doing?
It’s nice meeting you here!
And that beautiful guitar work by Jack Pearson!
Jack Pearson. Is there anything that guy can't do? Jeez, Louise!
My father introduced me to Jackson Brown’s music.. this song will always resonate deeply in my Soul. Thank you Father. Thanks you Jackson. And Thank you Greg. And Thank You God for these memories ❤️🔥
I love Gregg Allman & Jackson Browne
Hello Joyce
How are you doing ?
It’s nice meeting you here !
Browne wrote some of the finest folk rock songs in history. And was a great performer.
Gregg Allman, Jackson Browne, Chuck Leavell, Jack Pearson, Jimmie Hall, Don Was….What a line-up! Masterful rendition of a now journeyman song.
Damn thats good for the soul
These Days !! Gosh, best song on an awesome album! Gregg Allman / Awesome!
The absolute best version of this song. I like how Jackson starts it off but when Gregg comes in---MAGIC
Breaks my heart to hear this version ...amazing . RIP Greg ..miss you bro
Love that Allman smile @ the beginning…God bless you, Gregg…rest easy 🍄🍑
That was precious!

THANK YOU FOR YOU MUSIC!
Jackson Browne wrote the perfect song and as good as he is and I love him this song was made to be song by Greg..❤️
O' so more poignant knowing he was gone not long after this...what a moment, that will last forever.
"Please don't confront me with my failures......... I'm aware of them."
One of the more awesome lyric lines in any song ever in the history of music, in my opinion.
In the heavier rock genre, I like Plant with his "The dogs of doom are howling more" as well as Waters and his "And the worms ate into his brain."
I'm a MUSIC man first, but lyrics can sometimes make a song, of course. I offer Neil Young and Dylan as some prime examples.
Rock on, people. Happy New Year, 2020.
Jackson Browne's original lyrics were "Don't confront me with my failures.
I had not forgotten them
"
I'm with you babe..cant come to that lyric without stopping whatever the fuck I'm doing..and breathing through it..
@@jessicawriwright8039 Nicely put. Every time I get to that part I find myself unconsciously nodding, like, yeah, ain't it the damn truth. SUch a great song and this is an amazing performance of it.
@@bearlikes Yes, and when you see the look on JB's face when Gregg Allman sings his version of that lyric, it's a lot like Gregg's look when Jackson sings the song's first lines. It's clearly beyond mutual respect.
@@intassage I can never not sing the harmonies on the 'Well I'll keep on moving..." verse. Not a patch on Bonie Raitt but it's the thought that counts :-)
"..and now I believe I've come to see myself again..... Please, don't confront me with my failures cuz I"m aware of them."
I love both their versions of These Days. Hard to fathom Jackson writing this so young, it has a longing that I can relate to as a senior. I think many of us can relate to it. Not sad about my life, I just miss those days. Failures and all.
If I close my eyes I can go back in time-before both motorcycles accidents, everyone was alive and well, and Jackson was a young man first starting out. Beautiful music, beautiful people, and the world seemed like a happier place in more simple times. Just wishing.
I love the mutual respect and appreciation they have for each other and each other's music! It is both visible and audible.

So good when great musicians get together and the ego's just go running away Greg is so missed and Jackson still rocks on thanks to both .
Hello Jeannie , if you are receiving this message it means you are a true fan and I want to say a big thanks for your love and support towards me and my career all through the years of my life, sending love to you and yours.
Oh man, aren't we all feeling this, these days... Profound thanks, gentlemen! Enriching our lives beyond your own.
I always liked Gregg Allman and his music, but I adore Jackson Browne and his music. I would never have thought the two together would sound so good. Glad I found this.
Nobody put more heart and soul into a song than Gregg
SUCH GREAT MUSIC THEN!!!!
Bone chillingly beautiful !
Oh, man... thank you, Gregg and Jackson. Sublime.
Such a beautiful song & Gregg feels these lyrics in these days,Thank you Jackson Browne I love you both!
Jackson Browne is the best concert I have been to.
Thank you for this. Beautiful.
i grew up listening to the allman brothers band sad that gregg passed away he kept the band together after his brother tragiclly was killed rip gregg you will forever be missed
Thanks for this video. Two of my most beloved people of the music world...
Acceptance and affirmation are so important. Gregg's expression, the moment before the performance begins, where Jackson assures him of his approval.
Beautiful!
I love how Jackson looks at Gregg while he's singing.
I love that too -- I just love watching performers enjoying each other during their performances. It's so cool, so sweet.
Two "old souls" in a mutual admiration. God bless them.
This is heartbreaking and so beautiful...
I have to think when Gregg is playing n singing he must be thinking at times of his beloved brother! He really LOVED his brother dearly that I know so well!
NO doubt. 😢
I don't think I can listen to ANY music/songs for quite awhile; the two of them together just, well, it's indescribable....:)
Jackson looks like a proud parent trying to play it cool....watching Gregg performing his song in a way that he, Jackson, couldn't. Gregg, you sure did Jackson proud and he sure loved every minute of it! So did I.
RIP Gregg Allman. sweet man ❤
We sometimes don't know what we have until we lose it. For me, this has been the case with Gregg.
It hit me hard too. I got to sell Greg my 59' les paul in the mid 80's, when he came to buy it, we jammed Mellissa in my basement. Of course that solidified my love for the great Greg Allman. These old masters are not going to be around much longer.
I could listen to him forever
Me too
The look on JB's face when Allman starts singing priceless. Two legends.
Saw Gregg do this at Winterland on his first solo tour, must have been '73, '74? It was awesome of course, but he didn't have Jackson with him that night... between that and my own advanced age I can't watch this one without a tear. "I'm aware of them..." Truth.
Hard to believe, and sad, that this is the very first, and only time they ever got to sing it together. ☹
This song brings back so many memories of mine! In the early seventies, I had my first real love! She swept me off my feet! We became engaged. We didn’t quite make it the alter, but that was my fault! I was much too immature and I didn’t get myself straight! I lost her and another one that I couldn’t hang on to! It was a good time and a bad time! I guess it had to happen!
No need to remind yourself of your failures....
truly, music does not get any better than this ~ in my heart forever

Two beautiful soulful voices. I love these guys, no never be two other people that can sing the song way they can. Thank you my friends for the beautiful music you've given us through the years❤️❤️👏

First time I have heard him sing one of many Jackson favourite's ,
Emotions run deep in my soul , my ex husband was the biggest Jackson fan .....
Tis so so beautiful . I will always love you Karl , always and rest in divine melodic heavenly peace ...... a man who touched my heart today
Can't help but tear up watching this. I was fortunate to see ABB back in the days they were the warm up band at the Eastown Theatre in Detroit. Never has a band and musicians made such an impression on me. And when Greg passed, not ashamed to say I teared up that day. Thank you Jackson for giving Gregg that song and blessing us with this live version.
Absolutely. Seeing abb live was a bucket list item, and THE best concert i ever saw. They were incredible live!
Only band to ever come close to impressing me like that, was Radiohead. And ive seen a LOT of great concerts.
Greggallman you look absolutely beautiful here, you were always very handsome, and for that your illness could not take that away from you. Love you, rest in peace my beautiful angel xoxoxoxoxoxoxoect.
WHO IS PLAYING THAT PIANO,IT MUST BE SOMEONE GREGG TAUGHT!!
Those LONG legs and perfectly combed hair.
That's as good as it get.. Greatness
Love Jackson Browne still. Just an easy voice. ❤️✌️🎶🎼
Gregg could sing the phone book I'd fall down 🎶‼️never ever will be another Gregg Allman ❤️
We will miss you Greg. What a treat it is to be able to find vids like this. Thanks for the upload!
I just saw Jackson Browne live at Bethel Woods Saturday night. Just to see him do this 1 song was worth the price of admission. Luckily we got to see a list of other great songs as well. 2 encores & there could have been more.
Did he do "After The Deluge" there??
About THE most appropriate song for THAT venue!! 😉
I hate Gregg passed to but that song could’ve been no better with both of you singing it Jackson. Thank you
The way they look into each others faces…. Such love. Just brings tears to my eyes. Genuine affection there.
what a great vocal for this song, Allman killing it as usual
Gregg Allman feels this song deeply and he make me feel it to. Thank you Jackson Brown and Gregg you have always been about the music and nothing else. You will live forever in the hearts of those who hear your music.
One of those moments where I wish I could actually click a heart. Beautiful. ❤️
Well I had a lover, I don't think I'll risk another these days these days I seem to be afraid to live the life that I've made .. It's just that I have been losing ... so long... Little did I know when I first listened to this song how true these words would one day ring. Yet.. I do still to this day love this song endlessly ... Gregg Allman and Jackson Browne .. two of the ultimate greats ... ok.. I need to start this from the beginning and listen .. yet again... even though it will make me cry ....
Love these Guy,l have an 18 yr old Hot Little Grandson and ive got Him playing southern style like Greg and He sounds so frigan good,l proud as hell of Him♥️
This has always been the most beautiful song ever. Duane and Jackson do it justice. I saw them at the Fox theater perorm this live. Have chills think ing about .
The world will never see anyone like Gregg Allman again. Truly one of a kind genius and talent. Same with Jackson. Sure glad I was around during this time.
I'm crying - so freaking beautiful.
What an excellent version. Miss you Gregg so, so , so very much!
This is a treasure of a video, for the song, the performance, and these warm and immensely talented pioneers of the rock generation. [spoiler alert, I'm going to offer a subjective opinion many may not appreciate...]
Gregg's departure from the original closing line leaves out what I really believe is one of the most inspiring lyrics in the whole song...
"...don't remind me of my failures, I had not forgotten them."
To this day, at age 68, I simply cannot imagine how at 16 years of age, Jackson found this song and brought it out for all the rest of us. Perhaps even more remarkable, with dementia slowly consuming him, Glenn Campbell broke free long enough to leave us with one of his greatest performances of this masterpiece. To this day, I am grateful to have been born in 1952, and lived through what may turn out to be humankind's last golden age, side-by-side with these great artists.
Melancholy tears tor this world who will never know the God given greatness of these two
As a former guitar player of Nico (unfortunately we never played that song though), I did not know that version, great, touching stuff. Thanks a lot!
RIP Greg. So many great shows I've been too. He liked Memphis.
Greatest line in music
Just beautiful! Thank you for posting. I had not seen this before.
Hello Kathleen , if you are receiving this message it means you are a true fan and I want to say a big thanks for your love and support towards me and my career all through the years of my life, sending love to you and yours.
Never get tired listening to Gregg and Jackson. Guess I never will.!!
Although I cannot stand it whenever
That moron says “here’s one for friendship “ That just rubs me you know where. What a geek.
Mark Friedman ... me too...so glad to have had the good fortune to have them in my favorites ...
