JACKSON BROWNE & JAMES TAYLOR

Loved it! Great mix of old and new. The crowd in Toronto was right into it, it was amazing! Our seats were 6th row from the floors-great view. Many encores. Who could ask for anything more?! I definitely recommend seeing these guys, if you don’t mind hearing some new tunes as well. WELL DONE BOYS!!! 🥰

JAMES TAYLOR WITH JACKSON BROWNE

Absolutely wonderful! It's one of those things that you never knew was on your bucket list until you did it. It brought back all the wonderful familiar memories! Background and stage were so James Taylor. Appealing, interesting, grounded and pleasant.

TAYLOR EXCELLENT JACKSON UNDERWHELMING

Seen Browne three times this was dull and uninspiring he seemed tired and disinterested Taylor was smooth and melodic as usual excellent show

4.0 star rating Joe D from Dayton, Ohio

SATISFIED

Outstanding show exceeded expectations. Sure, both artists didn’t play every one of their hits but so it goes. Nutter Center highway access and parking were a nightmare. Shuttle buses helpful, though. With 10,000+ attending, it was a real COVID vaccine test for sure!

PERFORMANCES OF IMPECCABLY QUALITY

You can't fault these old geezers for the musical quality and nuance they both delivered, no doubt forged in their 40-50 year careers. Each put on an excellent show, each had a fantastic support band.. The sound system was also outstanding considering we were in a steel and concrete box arena. I've read some of the other reviews dinging them for their set lists. I am not a person who necessarily went to hear all the hits. I went to be entertained, and as noted, they both delivered. That said, I also thought JT's hot dog cartoon song was lame and the encore with his son seemed a little unrehearsed. Also the crossover songs were a mixed bag for me. JT was disappointing on The Pretender, but JB joining JT for Taking it Easy was excellent. Overall I'd recommend this concert highly to anyone seeking to be entertained, but perhaps not so much if you are expecting to spend a lot of time singing along to the hits from the 70s and 80s.

JACKSON BROWNE AND JAMES TAYLOR AT THE TACOMA DOME

I was skeptical. Of course I knew the canon--I grew up with these songs and play some of them myself--but I was leery of yet another "geezer nostalgia" concert in an acoustically challenged arena. Well, Jackson was good. His voice is still unmistakeable, although a little mellowed. And his band? Tight. Great guitar work and drumming. 5 stars. The headliner, James Taylor? A more mixed review. The start was weak. And throughout the night the mix was off. The bass and drums WAY overmiked to the extent that muddy booming drowned out the band, and even the man himself. And the rendition of "Mexico" was just off. But they got better as the night wore on. I got the sense that JT really appreciated all the folks who held on to their tickets when the show was initially cancelled. And he paid back with better and better music, more and more reciprocal love from the stage. And 3 encores? The cap was his duet of "Close your Eyes" with his 21 year old son, Henry. Nice human touch for a megastar.

JT AND JACKSON BROWNE AT CHASE CENTER

Pure pleasure last night. JB started off the show with a nice mix of old and new tunes and his band was really spot on. His lyrics were a bit difficult to hear at times and the sound balance seemed a bit off, but a minor issue. JT came out and did a tune with him and that was really amazing. JT's band, as always was stellar. Steve Gadd on drums, Larry Goldings on keyboards, Lou Marini on saxes.. and of course Arnold who never disappoints. Also they did an amazing job with the lights and graphics. But tops for me, as always, is JT alone on the stage with his acoustic guitar. Nobody rivals him and the chills were there for us. I've seen JT dozens of times, having grown up in MA and spent lots of time on Martha's Vineyard. There's just something about him that is timeless and simply wonderful! Loved it!
