Jackson Browne Siganture Model?

If the JB model had been produced, would it have had a WB designation after the model number?

Yes, I am being sarcastic, and WB in this case wouldn't stand for "with binding".....

And it could come with a special, sleeveless, commemorative tee-shirt...

It's a shame that model may never see the light of day due to one person's inability to control his temper.
On a related note, why the heck does Glen Frey get a signature bass...does he even play bass? And it's Joe Walsh who plays the Glen Frey signature guitar!
This world makes no sense, and i'm skerred!

Ah well.

The autumnglo in Paul's picture is a stunner.

This is an example of how the media can twist a story into B.S. Does anyone on this site even know Clyde or Hannah or JFK jr. and what brought about her breaking a finger. Listen to the songs
"Too Many Angels" and "I'm Alive" Jackson has always expressed his inner most thoughts and feelings in his lyrics and songs. As for that guitar, he didn't care for it. He's a played 25 1/2 inch fret scale all his life and feels most comfortable with the feel and sound of a Fender.

'Jackson has always expressed his inner most thoughts and feelings in his lyrics and songs...'

Aha...now I finally understand "Runnin' On Empty"...

When we get back to the music, 'facts' are of no help at all and take a back seat to opinions and taste...and that's as it should be.

As for my taste, the only reason to listen to Browne's recordings is to gain access to the amazing David Lindley....and you don't have to stoop to that either, really...that's why god made El Rayo X!

Or Twango Bango...

One of the most memorable concert parties I ever attended was at a now-defunct, once-legendary club in Huntington Beach, only a few blocks from my house back then, called the Golden Bear.

It was a David Lindley show, and he tore the house down with the oddest collection of personnel and instruments (and hallucinogens, I believe) I'd seen up to then.

The last song was the most conventional of the lot--a thirty minute slide rendition of "Mercury Blues" that I will never forget...

His pots 'n' pans man, Ras Baboo, kicked butt on a pipe rack filled with hubcaps, pot lids, barbecue implements, etc, and David was wailing away at an old Danelectro. Great sweaty fun on a summer's eve.

People think Mr. Dave was into Drugs, but he is one of the clearest, straightest players you will ever meet.

So, he is that way straight? Amazing talent!

Paul, I 1st met Dave in 1969 before he ever knew C.J.B. He used to come over to Doc Kaufmann's house to rewind the pick ups on his old Tele. He was always looking for that elusive tone. A great player and at 1st when you meet a guy like him you think: what is he on? What he's on is Love and Music. He's a family man, married for ever. Plays just about anything with strings, and as we all know can make a slide guitar sing. You mentioned the Bear, we used to open for various groups back in the 60's at the Bear. It was a great place to play. Only held about 300 people and drew some famous acts. Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Feliciano,N.G.Dirt Band,Janis Ian,Lovin'Spoonful,Jimmy Vaughn&the Thunderbirds,Percy Sledge,Dick Dale&His Deltones,
Albert King, Charlie Mussle White,I could go on and on with the great musicians that played the Bear in that era. Doug Westons Trubador was another great place to see and hear well known acts up close. Those were the days!

It was sad; Dave was the last act I saw at the Bear; prior to that I'd seen Dick Dale and Jan and Dean there.

A few weeks after the Dave Lindley date, the Bear closed, with no announcement. HB wanted the land for their waterfront development, and there was no hearing and no going back. Now the entire PCH area of HB is filled with Beverly Hills on the Ocean condos and shops.

But you would remember when it was just a funky beach town, and a bit seedy at the edges.

I used to go to see surf movies at the Surf theater when the front ten or so rows were roped off because the ceiling had fallen. It's gone, too.

About a year ago, Percy Sledge appeared in a very small concert at my University, as part of our Performing Arts series. First time I ever saw him live. Great show; I've got lots of pictures on a disc somewhere...he does a duet with his wife of some 35 years. He was given an honorary Doctorate degree.

David Lindley is indeed an amazing talent. I saw him at a venue in Gastown, in Vancouver a number of years back. Carmen Appice was on drums and Ian McLagan(Small Faces) was on keyboards. David was wearing plaid pants and a tie dye shirt. He looked like a fashion challenged hippie. But what a show. As I said in my opening comment, that man is an amazing talent. He rocked the house all night long.
