This video's videographer Mike Johnstone described about Bonnie,
I'm the videographer on this session. It was down at Jackson's studio "Groove Masters" in Santa Monica. Bonnie was in Scotland at the time so the track was emailed to her, she did her tracks in a studio over there, emailed her track file back to Jackson and it was added to the ProTools file for final mix back at this studio. That's why she's not in the video.
Read info why we can't see Bonnie Raitt on this video.
I assume some managent contract exclusivity clause. She's there man. Her Little Feat induced slide guitar. Bella Miss Raitt
As attractive as she is I don't need to see her, I can hear her!
Warren wrote this song about Jackson. One can just imagine back in the day Jackson was just beating them off w/ a stick. He then complains about what a hassle it is to have all these beautiful girls trying to jump his bones. This is Warren's response.
Jorge Calderon asks "You gals ready?" and then pumps out the steadiest bass track ever!
There is a great audiotape of Jackson, Warren and JD teaching Linda the tune back in 76. She giggles at some hardcore lyrics but boy this tune when Ronstadt belted it out was highly invigorating - she gave it vocal justice.
Tell us where to find that audio tape, please.
Cool. Would like to find.
Lester B She is doing some rare speaking engagements with audio and film archives. I believe she plays part of the tape in the presentation.

Great version of Zevon s song.
Between Jackson Brown and Linda Ronstadt doing this song I'm sure it made Warren Zevon proud. Both were excellent covers.
Linda, much better.
Browne
I've been a fan of both Jackson and Linda for a really long time. Jackson has been my favorite singer/songwriter almost from day 1 when I first heard him on the radio. So usually I'm gonna go with Jackson far above anyone else. But I heard Linda's version first and she always wins on this one. I bet they did make Warren Zevon proud!
Sorry to inform, but Mr Zevon wrote this on account of the complaining of Mr Browne, regarding the abuse received from said “Young Girls”! Jackson is the star or this song!
Absolutely. And Waddy on guitar for both!…although I love his really Rocked out playing on Linda’s version.
the way the drums and bass kick this off I wanna start singing the guitar intro to CCR's Fortunate Son lol
I have always loved this song, and the video footage is even better!!! ❤️ Jackson is just beauty to watch!!! 😇
Jackson should know this song as good as anybody! He produced it for Warren's original recording!
One of my favorites. Love them both Warren Zevon and Jackson Browne
I would like to address the many, many people who are wondering about the whereabouts of Bonnie Raitt in this video. I recommend that everyone go to the comment one year ago by Mike Johnson , who was the videographer for this video.He gives a detailed explanation of how this recording took place. As of now , this comment is about 50 down, but maybe CountryRock 2U can rearrange the comments for your convenience. I hope this helps and may we all thank Mike Johnson.
Waddy Wachtel shows up and makes a great song perfect
Was he on the original? I know he played on many of Warren's songs - and helped produce some too (??). Regardless, it's great that he was able to play here. And maybe produce?
@@SigMendelsson He would have played the lead guitar on the original, and is credited as a producer on the "Enjoy Every Sandwich..." album, along with Jorge Calderón, Brendan O'Brien, Ken Stringfellow, and others.
Jorge Calderon is no slouch. He also produced a lot of Warren's songs and co wrote with him as well!
He’s great just keep him away from kids😅
Alison I think that their tracks were laid down separately at different times. I am pretty sure she is playing that awesome slide guitar on this track too, so its a shame we don't get to see her playing too.
Definitely.. I was thinnking why are they not showing Waddy playing slide ...duuhh he'tsbeen playing the Fender the whole .. Bonnie is playing the screamin' slide!
@@like2view I'm the videographer on this session. It was down at Jackson's studio "Groove Masters" in Santa Monica. Bonnie was in Scotland at the time so the track was emailed to her, she did her tracks in a studio over there, emailed her track file back to Jackson and it was added to the ProTools file for final mix back at this studio. That's why she's not in the video.
@@mikejohnstone8638 Thanks Mike!! this completes the picture!!
@@mikejohnstone8638 Thanks for all that valuable information. I know many have been puzzled or at least wondering.
Another one I've not heard CJB. I'm getting words from my hubby in heaven. He knew all your songs and taught me many. Both guitarists. Married 33 yrs. The big C got em. Way to early to go. Sad. Listening to you makes me feel connected to Heaven. TY.
That BASS...the whole ensemble...this song...this gal's ready, following (hidden) Bonnie Raitt's backup vocals!
old post but Terri Clarks version in the late 90s was a huge hit on the country chart
Bonnie also on slide here.
LOVE how JB does this!! Great band, different sound than Linda's. I like it!Love Jackson Browne, so versatile, so cool. So sexxy!
Oh yeah!
Indeed! I like Lindas but this is my FAVO RITE by FAR....NO DOUBT! I think he is sexy even in his older years!
Yes, this man is sooo sexxxy!
You know he beats women, right?
@@catofthecastle1681 and I know some women who beat men😏, right?
Can't believe I never heard this. Half the band I've seen at NAMM, either playong or hanging out. I once changed clothes in Jackson Browne's bathroom. Good memories.
I don't like Jackson's political views but he's a great singer song writer and a fine man ... No doubt ....
He's in great voice on this one!
Best rendition I've ever heard of this great song. Can't stop playing it - going on three weeks now.
rocking it "Jackson " & "Raitt" ...awesome guitar work...
Great song..... and for me the BEST version ever. The slide guitar is off the charts.
R.I.P. Warren - what a great song you wrote! Linda Ronstadt and Jackson Browne do excellent versions, but Warren in his live concerts did it best!
no way. Linda took that song to the stratosphere.
Warren's version was always best. He didn't just sing the lyrics, he felt them.
R.I.P Warren, Genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Waddy is so under-rated...Hope he's still alive and well? :) Dunno?
Yes, Waddy's great. Hosts a weekly jam session at a club in Santa Monica and works as a session player.
I saw Waddy on Stevie Nicks' tour a couple of years ago, great show
Bob Angell waddy was arrested for child porn, yeah he's a really great guy. NOT!!!
Waddy and his wife were arrested for possession of child porn. Tho its been sometime the fact is still
Jackson and Waddy........explosive. Damn good.
Jackson produced Warren's first real studio LP, so I bought it..
Jackson is just the best and how under rated is Waddy Wactel?
wayneo1269. But not among his peers.
He is not underrated. As the other comment here alludes to, Wachtel is highly rated by the only “fans”who matter: the performers who time and again want him to hold their songs together. As a session and concert musician, Wachtel’s credits are a mile wide and a mile deep. He’s even mentioned by name on a Warren Zevon song.
it's definitely Jorge Calderon on bass. Actually Jorge Calderon and Steve Gadd resemble each other, but look at the hair, he cannot be Steve Gadd.
And Rick Marotta on drums, for sure.
Funny because Jackson Browne produced the Warren Zevon version of this song.
its Rick Marotta on drums for sure
So Good, Waddy and Jackson! Warren is smiling...
I Always Loved This Song - I Know Lindas' Version Well - But I Really Like Jacksons' Too, (Bonnie Raitts' Slide🎸 Is UNMISTAKABLE!😁) & I Love Seeing Him In His Studio...This Is Also Where He Let Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble FINALLY Record TEXAS FLOOD!! For FREE!! THANK YOU🙏 JACKSON!!💞 LOVE YOUR MUSIC!🎶
"credit to her gender" is an amazing line
Good old rockin'spirit!2020 and beyond!...legend❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎻🎻🎻🎻
Warren was a great songwriter and poet!
This song is awesome and so is Jackson Browne!
There should be a law that performers are credited when these vids are posted.
Jorge Calderon on bass (and no, he is NOT dead, as a 10-year-old post incorrectly stated), Waddy Wachtel on guitar, Rick Marotta on drums. Songwriter Warren Zevon on an album produced by Jackson Browne. Bonnie Raitt does backing vocals and slide guitar, according to several posts here.
Jackson Browne and the late , great ,Dan Fogelberg were always generous in their usage of other songwriters 'work on stage and on their albums ! That is and was the stamp of two of the finest singer/songwriters of popular song ...Ever !
you're right and of all the great songwriters that Jackson covered, I STILL get chills when I play his version of Danny O'Keefe's "The Road". I'm waiting for him to cover Gordon Lightfoot.
There he be, singing a song supposedly written about him...chutzpah! 😊
I think it was about the pos Linda’s ex, Jerry brown?
Makes me love Jackson more than ever. So talented & adorable in this video.
love Jackson...love Warren...love PPPM!!!! classic Zevon!
She's a CREDIT to her gender!!! 👍
I will take a wild guess...drummer might be Rick Marotta who drummed for this very talented group of folks in LA...not sure though
Showing off his singing chops here. I always think of him as a songwriter first, but he is a fine singer, too.
song's intro is identical to fortunate son...
jimmy buffet was a credit to his blender
If you only knew what margaritaville was about, your brain would crack open like an egg
@@angiebold2592 do tell
hahaha
Why not give it up for "You Gals Ready? lol" Producer Jorge Calderon, for whom that so technically perfect baseline is given?! I don't understand why Bonnie Raitt is out of sight (no pun intended)...does anyone?
Alison , go back to a comment one year ago by Mike Johnson for a full explaination. Mike was the videographer.
Jackson actually produced Warren's original version. You can Jackson
say "I don't wanna talk about it...." in the middle of the song. Cool song, wicked funny!
Jose Calderon was both a friend and co-writer with Warren .His bass and Rick Marotta`s drums are so good here.
I thought Bob Glaub was on bass...
@@randyphelps3041 Not on this one.That's Jose.
Some good for life 🎉🎉🎉
It nice to be humble enough to laugh at yourself...I've always loved this song...
Awesome !!! Love this version!
LOVE IT!! Jackson Browne..I LOVE YOU!!
My favorite version of this classic tune
love u jackson.. n warren
Jackson is great, love this song. Why is Warren Zevon not in the Rock n Roll hall of fame ?
Because he was better than that shower of £%$☆#*. 😂
Zevon does not need the hall of lame. It's a country club and a museum. The fans know better.
C'mon girls, let's git his pants.
susan7266.what a freaking idiot. prime example of the shit women are giving birth to now days, maybe abortion in some cases is not a bad idea after all.
Excellent ..
Lord Have Mercy On Me ..🎶
It says Jackson with Bonnie Raitt... where is she in the video??
That's her voice on background vocals I think?
That guitar player...... oh my
I think that is legend Waddy Wachtel.
I'll bet you are correct!
Absolutely correct. Saw JB and WW at Arcosanti north of Phoenix, AZ. Could practically touch them. It was unforgettable.
Wow , that takes me back. Saw him there in the 70's with David Lindley.
You were there? It was amazing for sure--the car-becue in the parking lot was the topper. I was so close I could almost touch him. I think you're right, it was David Lindley.
Now let’s have some real music kids. Thank you.
Sounds about right . Since I had 2 wifes die on me but can't kill myself as yet . Poor me ! ha ha
Randall Polk .
I'm not usually a Jackson Brown fan ( too bland for my tastes) but he did a great job on this. Waddy's guitar tone is awesome
I guess it would have been in bad taste for Jackson to sing that original verse he left out😅
He’s actually doing a Warren Zevon impression here.
Rip Warren
It does sound like Bonnie Bonnie Raitt. Any chance it's David Lindley ?
Sounds like Bonnie.
Its Bonnie. Have the CD always read liner notes wish she was in this footage.
I'm hearing Lindley in the high harmonies.
@@thedevilinthecircuit1414 see my comment from 3 months ago. It's Bonnie
thank u, excellent rare footage of a recording session.
Recognize! Jorge Calderon!!!
AMEN!!! David Lindley alumnus.
The bass player actually co wrote songs with Warren,like Mohammed's Radio.He also produced albums for Warren.His name is Jorge Calderon.Hope that doesn't get him deported.
Love it. I'll always love Linda Ronstadt's version too. And Warren's of course.
So a little Jackson Browne/ Warren Zevon trivia. They were friends, Jackson helped Warren’s career early on and was a big fan. This song is written supposedly about JB, tongue in cheek. Listen to the words and think about Jackson’s songs in the 70’s. Makes sense
I assume that's Bonnie playing slide too. I can just hear her singing backup. 😉
Think its Ry Cooder
Sammy Scotch it’s Bonnie’s slide guitar
Mark, go back to the comment by Mike Johnson one year ago and get the full explanation of how this was recorded. Mike Johnson was the videographer.
Waddy!
For anyone who is still wondering about the bass player, it's Jorge Calderon who was a good friend of Warren who collaborated with him on a lot of albums. He also produced The Wind and Enjoy Every Sandwich.
Totally copied the bass from fortunate son.
I can hear some Cleveland Heart in this Song!
Any video out there with Jackson and Richie Furay together wood shedding ??? Bound to be let me know please ... Love Richie
HaHA! Warren probably wrote the sarcastic song out of playful spite for you, Jack. :p
( Springsteen inducting you into the Hall of Fame, 'same kinda thang. ;) )
Incidentally, between the three of you, I'm girl enough for all of yas...
but Warren with is whom I'd want some real alone time... :D !
xos Jackson
Such a wonderful ‘problem’ to have… I am imagining. Poor pitiful Jackson. 🤭
Between playing with Warren, Linda, Jackson and his own band...how many times and how many different arrangements has Waddy Wachtel played on this classic?
Never got lucky enough to hear you sing this Warren Zevon song at a Concert of yours. Maybe you will come to Vegas again and sing it? Hint Hint
😜🌺
Waddy Is doing fine, very fine indeed, ask the D.A in EL LAY. MERCY, JUDGE, MOOCEEY ON ME!!! Sang it with feeling and videos under the bed.
good but cant compare with warren, he doesn have that sarcastic bit that warren has.
I like jackosn browne but he just doesnt have the vocal style and power to pull this off.
I never do!
Rick Marotta has a groove like no other. That's him on Steely Dans "Peg". Where's Lindley?????
Jackson does a nice cover but he left out the verse about the girl at the Rainbow Bar, "I don't want to talk about it."
It's funny Brown does this song because it's a swipe at his song writing (sometimes very heartfelt)by warren Z
I think my fav is Terri Clark's....I love me some cowbell :-)
Agree totatally!!!!
GOOD SHIT !
Warren's playful jab at Jackson Browne who does a damn good cover.
Would have been nice to see the "SLIDE"
Great cover but too bad there’s no video of Bonnie; you can hear her singing backup, if you listen carefully, but that’s about it.
I think that was her on slide too
I'm not alone!
Great take on a GREAT song!
Didn't know who Warren Zevon was until you sang this song JB.💘
The drums and bass on this song are absolutely sick!
But, yeah, great lead guitar, slide guitar, and, oh yeah JB is okay too!
yup. they make it very catchy soundind. why didn't they show more of the bass player?
Rainbow 🌈 bar? Nevermind, I don't want to talk about it
Nice song, nice video!
Thank you! .
that is LINDAS SONG AS IN RONSTADT
This one sounded like a Jackson Brown song before he touched it.
@fusion2000 it looks like rick...........check out "the making of "peg", the steely dan song, rick is not only a good drummer, but a funny guy as well.
He bossed this one, excpet for the apparent down-play of yet another female. Thank you Bonnie for making the sound complete. I still like Linda's version best - it's just... meatier.
