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.
I have this song on repeat play and have been listening to it for hours. Nobody on here has mentioned the LYRICS. It’s not just the instrumentals/ melodic structure that makes this music great, but the sheer poetry of the lyrics. It’s the combination of all of these elements that makes this piece so brilliant!
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 ❤️
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.
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.
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.
Hello 👋 Kate 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.
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 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
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.
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 ……..
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.
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
@@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.
Hello 👋 Ranger 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 ❤️
I took my wife to see him at the Bull Run in Shirley, MA a few years before he passed. I predicted that he would be wearing very interesting attire. He did not disappoint in a red polyester with red shoes. He played his Weissenborne, his oud, and a bouzouki. This was a small intimate show. I got to meet him a sign a cd. Very nice gentleman and great performer.
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 🤔🤣).
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Hello 👋 Julie 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 ❤️
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.....
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.
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
Me too. He was such a talent and his influence on so many Jackson Browne records was profound.
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. ❤

Couldn't have said it better. Thank you David for all that you've given to all of us.
RIP David Lindley. This is one of my favorite videos on the internet. His playing was connected straight to his heart.
I have this song on repeat play and have been listening to it for hours. Nobody on here has mentioned the LYRICS.
It’s not just the instrumentals/ melodic structure that makes this music great, but the sheer poetry of the lyrics. It’s the combination of all of these elements that makes this piece so brilliant!
Agree with you. Thanks.
I love their harmonies.
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.
If it has strings on it, David Lindley is a master on it.
He was the Master of the G string, and the Prince of Polyester. And a Prince Among Men.
RIP David Lindley. An underappreciated, one of a kind talent. Saw him twice in concert. Also an amazing storyteller. Go with Peace.
Stunningly beautiful version. I'm not crying. We're all crying.
I saw David Lindley with Jackson Browne in the mid 1970's at U of Notre Dame.

David lindley elevated JBs music to another level akin to heaven
I have seen Jackson play with Lindley, and without Lindley, and believe me, with is better!
Rest in peace, David! Your light will continue to shine forever!!
Hello 👋 Lee Hurst

David is the most under rated musician in the the world.
A humble man, a man of integrity, a man blessed. RIP DL 🙏❤️🔥
Us musicians knew... Lindley, I can hear you pleeming ♡♡♡
True
Pure musical magic between Jackson and David. May David rest easy.

These two together are pure musical magic. I don’t think any singer songwriter touches my own heart deeper than Jackson does.
Greg Davis..like watching magic indeed..
Me too, Jackson Browne . . . His 'Hold on Holdout' keep me alive during a very dark time.
One of the best songs written in the history of the world
That’s your opinion
Jackson has written quite a few of them.
Amen!
@@Hoboscouts No, it’s empirical fact.
@@mrmojorisin8752 opinions are empirical facts when they're believed.
This version reduces me to tears whenever I hear it.

What a deep, sad, loss! No one can fill his shoes…a totally unique talent.
Aren't we lucky to have been contemporaries with these artists? I feel privileged that I got to hear Lindley, whose talent seemed almost superhuman.
Hello, how are you doing Lee 😊
Rest in peace, David Lindley. Thanks for all your music!!
David Lindsey! Safe passage and thank you for all the beautiful and inspiring music.
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.
The song almost doesn't need words, the chords being wonderful. RIP, Mr. Lindley.
Jackson Browne a natural born Poet. David Lindley is truly a virtuoso. Love them both.
RIP David. Thanks for your truly unique, beautiful music. Play on
Absolutely Loved David Lindley's Music.. Sad To Hear He's Gone 🎶😔
Both Brilliant and Moving, thanks Jackson and David, RIP David. cheers
Nobody ever has or shall do it like Lindley. RIP El Rayo X
The hours and hours I spent listening to these two playing. How very sad.

great lyrics. wonderful melody.. and these modest, aging guys.. never lost joy in playing&performing.. superb!!
Uwe Kasten these boys are anti establishment and see clearly with all three eyes .... no indoctrination. to work with love is to never work a day
Godspeed, David. Thanks for all the great music.

David's accompaniment whether it's violin, guitar or keyboard adds that much more feeling & beautiful sound to JB's songs.
Sorry to just find out David passed away last March.😢

Love Jackson I grew up listening to him! He touched my ❤
I took my wife to see him at the Bull Run in Shirley, MA a few years before he passed. I predicted that he would be wearing very interesting attire. He did not disappoint in a red polyester with red shoes. He played his Weissenborne, his oud, and a bouzouki.
This was a small intimate show. I got to meet him a sign a cd. Very nice gentleman and great performer.
I've been a Jackson Browne fan since 1972, have every album, and this is my favorite song on my favorite record. Genius on that stage.
My favorite Jackson Browne song. Beautiful live performance of it.
Mine's "For a Dancer" but this one's up there. I too lost the bet of which he sings.
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.

Thank you David Thank you Jackson Browne ❤❤❤❤
when you feel good, listen to this song and you will feel even better.if you feel bad, listen to this song and you will feel good.....
Today we said goodbye to David. My heart is broken in 17 places.
Beautifully said..and shared grief helps heal. Thanks. Feel less like a Lindley orphan now
there's only one word for this song, and it's "wow"
Jackson always surrounded himself with the finest musicians and David was surely one of those quintessential gifted ones. 💕💕
Rest in peace Mr. Lindley.
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

I saw them sing this song in Seattle about 1978 with Lindley on lap steel. It was a great concert and perfect sound.
beautiful,not just the vocals,the guitars are amazing
I saw a couple of shows on this tour. An amazing experience. RIP - DL.
David , you will always be in my heart . Bless you .
Beautiful man, beautiful music.
Hello 😊
Thank you for all your beautiful music David. You will be missed.
A great contributor to the music of our time.
These guys get it done together. Keep in mind, they are here 'on a loan.' See them when you can--they may leave here before we do.
Always my favorite Jackson tune, performed perfectly

Always loved this song.
Just passed but greatly missed already. Godspeed David.
David is as good a musician as Jackson is a song writer. The total best there is.
David was on loan to all of us and I for one am truly thankful for that…..

Just kidding. Great song. Got me from the start.

Such a beautiful song…….❤
Rest in Peace, my Hero.
Waking up in love ay? What a fleeting feeling that was
one of his best :) He sang this last night at the Greek..... although David did not accompany him, it was still a very beautiful moment.
God this is wonderful.
Beautiful Jackson and David
They sound AMAZING 2gether!
Still
Beautiful yesterday today and tomorrow
