LOS ANGELES -- The Gulf oil disaster is but one example of the ways in which our fossil fuel economy is impacting the planet wecall home. But as bad as this catastrophe is, the specter of global climate change looms even larger as a threat to sustaining life on Earth. Despite overwhelming evidence -- species extinction and dwindling water supplies to mass migrations and mega-storms -- the public is still unclear what climate really means for them.

Jackson Browne on Ellyn Maybe and her album Rodeo for the Sheepish

August 16, 2010

I have started to write something about you for your site several times, and each time I am struck by my inability to describe what you do in terms beautiful enough, original enough to do you justice. But it's always been this way. Who has ever been able to say in other words what a song says? Maybe it's why I like your poems so much, they say what can only be said in exactly the way you say it. The best way of turning someone on to you is to play you for them.

Concert Review: Jackson Browne with David Lindley in Los Angeles

Story by Phil Gallo - SoundSpike Editor at Large

Reuniting with David Lindley gives Jackson Browne [ tickets ]'s concert presentation a welcome spark, a bit of a kick in the pants that fires up not only the songs Lindley helped shape on record in the 1970s, but latter-day tracks as well.

The best pieces in Browne's canon -- and his set Friday (7/23) at a sold-out Greek Theatre was extremely well selected -- possess an engaging didacticism, a cognitive knowledge translated in song on a universal level, and they were delivered with the endearing casualness of a friend sitting on a living room couch.
