It's a superb show with an astonishing sound quality. Jackson is singing great. He tells lots of funny stories. There's a great atmosphere. David Lindley's mandolin playing in These Days is absolute stun

On one hand, Jackson Browne’s songs are considered confessional, on another, this is a musician who has a “broader vision of social change and justice.” Give him an intimate setting like The Main Point in Bryn Mawr, Browne can also spin some mean stories.

In 1972, Browne had released his self-titled album. While a number of the songs he performed at The Main Point were from that album, he also treated his audience with tracks that would surface on For Everyman (the album would be released about two months later).

The set opened with Take It Easy, a song that is associated with The Eagles although not many remember that Browne had co-written it with The Eagles’ Glenn Frey. The other new songs were These Days, Colors Of The Sun and Red Neck Friend. Take It Easy might also be the theme for the night as Browne was in good humour, especially when he covered Del Shannon’s Runaway, with the audience happily joining in. Browne might not have been an activist that night but he sure brought a smile to many faces and probably won over many new fans (if they weren’t already).
