I'll Do Anything Jackson Browne Live In Concert

Anything Jackson does deserves recognition, He can covey serious, moving and truthful all in one song.Sone of his best songs and lesser played, but always worth listening to. Its a concert when you want it for the home. Audience feedback is always fun to listen to.

I hate to sound like everyone else when I say I've seen Jackson Browne in concert many times over the past 35 plus years. I was lucky to catch on at the time his second record (For Everyman) was current, and so for many years have enjoyed his talent. Late For The Sky is surely one of the most important records of the historic era of stereo records/rock and roll/FM radio. By purchasing and listening to his records, I can confirm that there are many great songs in his catalog. But saying so, I'm no more qualified to rate this dvd concert than any other fan.I ordered it a couple days ago, it arrived yesterday, I watched it last night. I last saw him in concert a couple years ago when he was touring solo/acoustic/small venues. This concert is more recent, with a complimenting group of younger musicians backing him up. Like many older fans probably feel, there's no substitute for David Lindley in my opinion for the violin/pedal steel flavor of the early Jackson Browne records. In this dvd, these younger back-up players allow the older songs to be re-visited with a familiar, yet fresh, presentation. There's a violin player, an electric guitar soloist, and a acoustic guitarist that each provide a partial tribute to David Lindley's original contributions. They're not the same, but it works pretty well.As a particular example, "A Child In These Hills" is a song from the 1972 debut Jackson Browne album. If you are truly a fan, then you know the record, and you know this cut is not one of his radio hits. This dvd concert includes this song, with a slightly different rhythm and presentation as compared to the album version. It's a highlight of the dvd. It's great, and if it had sounded like this 40 years ago, it would have rivaled Doctor My Eyes or Rock Me On The Water as a radio hit. I had the same sensation with the dvd version of "Naked Ride Home". While only slightly different in rhythm, I much prefer it to the original album version.Jackson Browne is known for, and greatly admired by many for, his melancholy lyrics. This dvd concert represents that characteristic of his catalog. But there's upbeat feeling as well. "Running On Empty" is well done here. Really, it's all very well done. I can't see anyone complaining about the selection of songs included in this particular evening concert. This man is a music talent phenomenon. This dvd entertainment is well worth the dollar expense. His earlier dvd title, "Going Home" is also very good. I've never been disappointed in any investment of time or expense in Jackson Browne. If he happens to ever read this review, I'd like to say how sincerely grateful I am to him for the contribution he made to my happiness and understanding in life.

First off, let me say that I have been a fan of Jackson's since his first album when he was performing at very small venues, like The Main Point (a small coffee house in Bryn Mawr, Pa. outside Philadelphia). I watched his rise to fame in the 70's and 80's, playing bigger and bigger venues as "The Record Company" tried to make as much money off of him as possible. I know and own all of his music, and have enjoyed all the different phases of this artist's career. I have varying opinions (like everyone else) of what I would have liked to seen him do, than what he has actually done. Which is why I have chosen to express my views on this particular dvd release. Jackson Browne is an intimate singer song writer, always is and always has been. Did he write some Incredibly Great Hits? You bet he did! But that alone does not define him. He is a much more complex artist than a "Hit Making" Rock & Roll Star. This dvd is a good example of the intimate side of him and his music(sometimes allowing the audience to express their impatience with the set list and the pace of the show). The 2012 tour was billed as an "Acoustic Venue" and the promoters tried to make it clear that if you were expecting an electric performance, this tour was NOT it. The consumer was informed of this before they bought tickets to his show. That is just what you get here on this dvd. Jackson and his Bandmates are very laid back here and are not trying to bring down the house. The song setlist is not a "sing along" of his greatest hits. But, if you are a long time fan like me you will really enjoy this show because all of his music is brilliant, especially the music that was not on the top of the charts. Now all that being said, I do have other opinions about the "choice" to release this side of him at this particular point in time. After 40 plus years of this artist's career, I personally would have liked to have seen a much more current and uplifting performance here. As far as I know, there are not any concert dvd's of Jackson Browne that are worth talking about out there. I find that to be very disappointing, because I personally don't see why there should not be alot more Live Performances of this guy especially after all of this time. It doesn't have to be a young Jackson. I kind of like the older more mature Jackson. I just think the show should have been a little more well rounded, and a little more exciting than what was released here on the "I'LL DO ANYTHING" DVD. Otherwise, the photograghy is very good. The sound is great. The musicians are excellent! And Jackson is very happy performing in this venue. If you are a fan you will probably love it. If you are a casual fan, I just wanted to try to explain what you are in for. Thanks!

Top Ware & sehr schnelle Lieferung - sehr zu empfehlen - herzlichen Dank

Excellent quality video and audio. Plays properly in my Samsung 4K player but will not play in my Panasonic 4K player. Seems to be some incompatibility with the audio.

A must for any fan of Jackson Browne. The man may show his age these days but his vocals and live performance are still at 100%. He genuinely looks like he still enjoys getting out in front of an audience and putting on a great show.

Una grabación de buena calidad pero en un plan intimista interpretando muchas de sus canciones menos conocidas. No te compres este disco si lo que esperas es una recopilación de grandes éxitos.

Questo Live in Concert, con musicisti differenti dai suoi storici, come David Lindley, é imperdibile per tutti: per i fan , che la considereranno un'altra pietra miliare della sua carriera di concerti dal vivo, con bellissimi nuovi arrangiamenti dei suoi brani più noti; per i più giovani, per conoscere uno dei più grandi artisti americani di tutti tempi , non solo un grande autore, cantante dalla voce inconfondibile, pianista e chitarrista, ma anche e soprattutto un grande poeta, il vero erede designato di Leonard Cohen.
