In fact, I think there were a number of versions of that song on the soundtrack album, which had a decidedly Bluegrass Country feel to it. I'm sure that this version can be found somewhere on the internet, probably on You Tube. It would be interesting to hear what you make of it.<br />Very Best Wishes,<br />David.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115443256449529220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-16686751904329742102017-04-18T01:33:35.120+01:002017-04-18T01:33:35.120+01:00Jackson Brown is one of my favorites from years go...Jackson Brown is one of my favorites from years gone by. I enjoyed his music and he was a handsome man. He had quite a reputation but it looks like he weathered it well. The words from The Pretender are so good.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-67647597453521447862017-04-17T21:20:52.637+01:002017-04-17T21:20:52.637+01:00Hi Bazza, Jackson Browne came to perform at my s...Hi Bazza, Jackson Browne came to perform at my small high school at the height of his fame--it caused a lot of excitement.
