An astonishingly good album. Every track.

Pretty sure it was in the road trip cassette case for those drives from Warner Robbins GA to SW PA. Spectacular album through out. Mr. Dave on those awesome fiddle parts.
I wore this record out when it came out. Awesome album!
Woa...! Did not know this one. What a song!
Phone calls long distance
To tell you how you've been
Great line.

Gamblers in the neon, clinging to guitars.. excellent songwriting!

I didn't know the Danny O'Keefe version, so I hopped onto YouTube. Sorry, but I think Jackson owns this. A slightly more relaxed tempo, wonderful violin, and his voice seal the deal for me.
I believe this was written by Danny O'Keefe and I prefer his version, which I first heard on WOWI in Norfolk, VA back in 1972. Jackson is good, but this one belongs to Danny.

This song represents well from a classic American recording. Damn.

What a smack in the head with a 2x4...I've loved and lived this album since, well, since the old album days. I never caught the switch to live. I just played that transition a few times from CD and it just seems obvious. Wow, thank you for posting that. It made my day.
I loved that transition about the track, because it's a metaphor for recording in the studio and then .. being on the road. Jackson Browne .. always entertaining.

I like that smooth transition to the live version at the end of the second verse
