Jackson Browne and David Lindley at Red Rocks Amphitheatre
Jackson Browne is a pioneer of the confessional singer-songwriter movement of the late ’60s, holding songwriting credits for the likes of Nico, The Eagles, and The Byrds, as well as four decades of his own critically revered hits, including “Doctor My Eyes” and “Somebody’s Baby.” He’s also been outspoken on progressive issues, especially since the Reagan era: He filed a lawsuit against the McCain campaign a couple years ago for its unauthorized use of Browne’s 1977 mega-hit, “Running On Empty,” and he continues to tour behind his latest studio album, 2008’s politically engaged Time The Conqueror.
