Jackson Browne

Ben Meade and I flew out to LA on April 12th to do a 15 minute interview with Jackson which turned out to be about a 2hour interview

If you are a Jackson Browne fan as I am and have been since 1972 I have been to every concert in Kansas City as well as Omaha, Denver and Topeka KS. I have seen Jackson so many times a person gets to think they know him, well every thing I thought he would be he was. What a great guy, the man deeply believes in everything he sings and talks about. Very down to earth, we sit in his amazing studio and talked and talked we talked about his songs, his beliefs, his friends, told us a couple funny stories. The man welcomed us in his domain like the gracious host you would want him to be. Jackson sung us a new song he is writing. This was quite a treat for Ben and I. We talked about it all the way back to KC.

I have also had the pleasure of having David Lindley at Knuckleheads 4 times in the last few years, being a Jackson Browne fan for so long; one can't help being a David Lindley fan too. As David has been with Jackson as long as I can remember, David is also a great guy wacky senesce of humor. David is a Funny man with the most amazing talent. A person could sit and watch him play for hours. This was a highlight in my life to sit down with both Jackson and David and just talk and hang out.

I think people love Jackson for his deep feeling emotional words of love and romanticism, the up's and the down's we have all been there and Jackson can take us there and back again I think he is possibly the greatest songwriter ever. And my ultimate goal is to get him to Knuckleheads someday
