Pro Reviews: Very Best of Jackson Browne
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Jackson Browne long displayed an aversion to hits collections, releasing his first 25 years after his debut album. That 1997 disc, entitled Next Voice You Hear: The Best of Jackson Browne, had many hits, yet it was also missing many essential songs, leaving an opening for a collection that had all of Browne's hits and signature songs in one place. Released seven years later, Rhino/Elektra's doubledisc The Very Best of Jackson Browne is more or less that collection. Produced by Jackson Browne and featuring 32 songs, this set has all the major songs "Doctor My Eyes," "These Days," "Late for the Sky," "The Pretender," "Fountain of Sorrow," "Redneck Friend," "Running on Empty," "Somebody's Baby" including songs missing on Next Voice You Hear, such as "Jamaica Say You Will," "Rock Me on the Water," "Take It Easy," "Before the Deluge," "The LoadOut," "Stay" and "Boulevard." However, there are a handful of smaller hits missing including "That Girl Could Sing," "Cut It Away," "For a Rocker," "For America," "Chasing You Into the Night," "World In Motion" and "Call It a Loan," the latter of which was on the previous compilation which may frustrate some listeners. Nevertheless, this is not a major problem, since the collection does contain the great majority of Browne's best and bestknown material in an attractive, engaging fashion (although the cardboard packaging may be a bit too flimsy to weather heavy, repeated listening), and for listeners that want a comprehensive overview without purchasing individual albums, this suits the bill nicely. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |

Pros: song selection, eras covered
Cons: timeliness of release
Although Jackson Browne reached the epitome of his commercial popularity in the late 70's and early 80's, this long awaited Best Of set proves that his songwriting talent didn't diminish in later years. Browne's early career songs such as Rock Me On the Water, and Doctor My Eyes, along with the original, now-standard, signature tune for the Eagles, Take It Easy, show listeners that he was wasn't even close to running on empty with songwriting talent at even that stage of his career.
This well-picked set picks the cream of Browne's crop yet acres of other tunes still await an aural harvest by those wishing to hear more of a great singer-songwriter.
Any argument regarding Browne's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should be silenced after a thorough listening to this excellent compilation.
Hopefully, Volume II will be forthcoming. ...
