      I kept waiting for A&A to do their patented lyric check, because this is one song where the lyrics matter. I've always found this to be some of the best pop lyrics of its time. And the lyrics mean just as much to me today as an older man as they did to me when I was younger. I kept waiting for them to dive into those words.... Alas.

It was coming out of the restaurants window we were trying to find. We followed the sound out of the darkness. Thanks Jackson!

      Fountains of Wayne did a lovely cover of "These Days." Check it out.
      In fact, every FoW cover is kind of amazing: "Can't Get it Out of My Head" (ELO), "The Story in Your Eyes" (Moody Blues), "Better Things" (Kinks), and unbelievably "Hit Me Baby One More Time" (Brittney Spears).

    One of the great singer-songwriters of the 70's and into 80's. Definitely in my top 5. "The Pretender" probably my favorite of his. Thoughtful, poetic, political, introspective, amazing voice, one of the best!! His vocals get better and better over the years. And that band ain't so bad either. I've seen them twice live. Great shows.

I bought the vinyl and for a year only listened to The Late Show feeling every lyric like it was written for me. Then one night I let the album play from the beginning and the lyrical content dug itself all the way through me. This was the mid 80's and though Browne had plenty of hits, none of his music held me as rapt as this album; especially side one. Fountain of Sorrow is my fave on the LP and one of the best songs ever written.

      For the record, Lindley’s collaboration did not begin until “For Everyman” in 1973, and his influence over the albums through “Running On Empty” is indelible. However, on “Doctor My Eyes” the lead guitar is credited to Jesse Ed Davis. The album that DME came from, Jackson’s debut, also featured Clarence White and Albert Lee on guitars, but no David Lindsey.
