Rating: - He wrote better music in High School
Every artist that records in a studio ends up throwing out most of the songs they write. Evidently his new pals are telling Jackson that every single song he writes is worthy of being on a record. They aren't. No songwriter is that good.

So, we get a record filled mostly with those songs that should have been passed on, and not even enough of those. Too many suckups hanging around him, and too few of the old crowd...the guys and girls that got him to where he is.

Rating: - Time to give politics away
While it's true that no one does politics in song like JB, It can also be argued that he does love songs even better. Over the years Jackson has written some epic anti war and political songs - none better than 'Lives in the Balance' but hey enough is enough. George Dubya has almost run his race, why keep lamenting his actions right up to the bitter end. The sad thing is, that while Jackson is writing about his politics, we are missing out on the tender love songs and ballads which we know he can ... Read More

Rating: - Two notes of interest...
I do like JB's latest...after seeing him at the Universal Palace in NYC in 9/08, I got the CD and continued to enjoy the music.
I can't really add to what others have already written about the specifics...but two things stood out for me:
1) "Off of Wonderland" is off-key...I play along with my CDs, and the 2nd cut is off-key...it was most likely mixed badly...I didn't notice it with the other cuts
2) I miss David Lindley
Neither of the above should prevent any JB fans from listening ... Read More

Rating: - Imagination Rules
Browne's newest CD may have fewer classic hooks that made his songs so hard to get them out of your head. It does retain his lyrical supremacy to distill thought into a compact series of images that is both poetic and memorable. His voice retains its youthful vigor. "The Arms of Night" has one of the most distinctive melodies on the set, almost like a lullaby, "It's all you can do to let the angels find their own way home." "Live Nude Cabaret" contrasts a slow sad melody as Jackson seems to compare a cabaret ... Read More

Rating: - old, tired & uninspired
I cannot say that I was expecting a lot and boy did he under-deliver. Far from the thoughtful, insightful lyrics of his youth, Mr. Browne insists on plodding through ground already trod. There is not a single song that stands out and the only redeeming feature is the steady musicianship. Perhaps a glass of warm milk, a blanket and a nurse are in order?
Sorry, an artist of his stature should not waste my money this way.
