- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2024Great
- Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2014I haven't listened to this, undoubtedly, great album yet. All of Jackson's albums are excellent. He's a brilliant artist and I have been a major fan (in fact, he is my absolute favorite musician) since 1973 when I was a freshman in college (41, almost 42, years ago). Though I haven't seen him live in many years, I saw him live a couple of times in the San Francisco Bay Area long ago, and he never fails to move his audiences, and to satisfy most with his genius lyricism and artistry.
Anyway, the reason I'm writing this comment is because I'm wondering why the failure to provide this album as an auto-rip one, as Jackson's albums bought from Amazon were previously (and why it appears that Amazon has done away with auto-rip on many albums now). Is Amazon trying to get people to absorb the expense of buying both the "hard-cover" album and the digital album? If so, I think that's a very poor decision and is going to lose them business.
One of the great selling points of buying physical copies of albums from Amazon, was being able to get auto-rip for free so we could put the entire albums into mobile devices without having to pay "considerably" more (depending on your income and budget) purchasing digital copies of all the songs separately. If it's a record label and/or artist preference, I personally believe that they're making a major mistake as well; because many people aren't going to buy both, and aren't going to buy one or the other either.
I want the actual albums, in addition to the digital songs, but I'm not going to pay about $10.00 more for the latter. So, whoever is responsible for this marketing decision, please reconsider, stop this limitation, and restore the ability to auto-rip most albums sold on Amazon. And, hint-hint, if you musician-artists read this expression of concern, and you have any influence to change it and restore auto-rip to your albums where it's been removed, please exert that influence.
Cheers all, and may you continue, like many if not most of Jackson Browne's fans, not to bury your heads in the sand, and to face what's really going on in the world, as well as enjoy a brilliant artist's musical talent at the same time. Jackson is one of the most wonderful, real contributors to this world and telling it like it is. I wish he'd done more protest albums since the 1980s; but, hey, one can't have everything. All of nothing but the best to all of you, and to all of your friends and loved ones!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2014Jackson Browne's "Standing in the Breach" is a strong addition to an amazing catalog. The set opens with "The Birds of St. Marks" that Val McCallum's chiming lead guitar brings to mind the classic Southern California sound from the Byrds' era with Browne's amazing lyrics, "Maybe we've found what we have lost when we've unwound so many crossed, entangling misunderstandings." "Yeah Yeah" is a track that grabs me with its catchy melody, Browne's great singing, "You paid for the love that we've got, you paid. And you made for the heart when we fought and you stayed." "The Long Way Around" is a midtempo gem with its deceptively simple melody and a sweet supporting vocal by Chavonne Stewart, "Now I'm a long way gone from this wild road I'm on." On "You Know the Night" Jackson takes a lyric by Woody Guthrie and adds his classic Browne melody which makes the track fit seamlessly into this set. Browne translates Cuban singer Carlos Varela's lyric and sings his melody passionately with Varela contributing end vocals on "Walls & Doors," "For some, it's always winter while others have the spring; Some people find good fortune while others never find a thing." The title track is a philosophic anthem with a lovely sadness in the melody between the vision of a better world and the reality of what we've made of it in the present, "You don't know how it will happen now after all that's come undone, but you know the change the world needs now is there, in everyone." "Standing in the Breach" is a strong set. It doesn't have quite the catchy pop hooks of the early classic recordings, but it adds depth and insight which feels like sonic wisdom. Enjoy!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2014At one point in his introduction of Jackson Browne at his 2004 induction into the R&R Hall of Fame, Bruce Springsteen declared that Browne has always followed his muse, wherever it took him, and this record is an excellent example. Some of the early reviews of this release strain to make comparisons with records Jackson released forty years ago, as if art is static and not a living thing. But I must say that not even "The Birds of St. Marks," which Jackson wrote in 1967 and which opens his new release, sounds much like his earlier recordings. Having been a fan from the beginning, I've sensed all along that Jackson has recognized the importance of viewing his work as a journey, one which lends itself to ever-changing dreams and new perspectives. "Standing in the Breach" finds Jackson taking a far broader view of both Love and the Social landscape. One should expect nothing less from a great artist in his seventh decade of life and who is releasing his 14th studio album. Lyrically, these songs fit beautifully into the remarkable, evolutionary Jackson Browne catalog. Musically, the songs take their time, continually providing us beautiful opportunities to contemplate his words. Typically, the musicianship of this record is as great as one could hope for. Val McCallum, Greg Leisz, Bob Glaub, Mauricio Lewak and others blend perfectly with Jackson's guitar, piano and voice. I love this record and regard it as a gift, one far more generous and valuable than anyone should have a right to expect from a man who has already given us so much.

Plaisir de retrouver cet artiste qui se fait rare avec une voix qui ne change pas. Du bon son à écouter sans modération.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this album!
I bought this for my husband who is a Jackson tragic!! He loves it and so do I. Jackson's music gets better and his back-up musicians are incredible too. Definitely recommend this album.

The vinyl LP has just arrived and it was certainly worth the wait. Musically Jackson Browne is back to his best, wonderful compositions without a duff track on the entire record. For vinyl lovers the recording is impeccable, powerful, dynamic, detailed analog sound at quite a bargain price. Only criticism was the jacket and labelling; jacket was printed upside down when looking at the gate-fold opening it right to left and on the second record the side with two tracks actually had a label showing three which was obviously reversed on the other side. But when the music and recording is this good who cares.

5.0 out of 5 stars il tempo non è passato...invano
ultimo lavoro di J. Browne importante cantautore della West Coast presente dagli anni '70 ad oggi, molto impegnato sul piano politico ed ecologista. songwriter molto originale caratterizzato da toni intimistici, romantici, dolci e con una sfumatura che con il passare degli anni è divenuta sempre più melanconica. Era da qualche album che J. Browne non confezionava un lavoro convincente, Gli ultimi lavori interessanti sono stati i vol.1 e 2 "solo acoustic" eseguiti da solo con chitarra o piano. In questo lavoro le canzoni sono belle con pezzi interessanti (manca solo una hit da classifica come furono take it easy, stay, late for the sky etc). ottimo il mix degli strumenti suonati da ottimi professionisti. testi belli (mi mancano molto le traduzioni di carlo massarini che pubblicava negli anni '70 Ciao 2001). il tempo si è fermato, ma le differenze con il passato ci sono. per fortuna il disco non è la riedizione del suo clichè. la voce è un pò più malinconica, ma sempre giovane e fresca. CD da comperare e gustare.

5.0 out of 5 stars Regreso a los mejores tiempos
Su mejor disco en décadas. Excelente producción, inspiración en las canciones y al frente de la música un genio de la guitarra como Greg Leistz. Una maravilla de álbum, cercano al de sus mejores creaciones de los 70.
