 (5 Customer Reviews)
Also available with JACKSON BROWNE (SATURATE BEFORE USING) on 1 cassette. An audacious concept album about life on the road, this is a mix of in concert performances and informal sessions taped in various hotel rooms (see "Shaky Town," ... Full Descriptionalthough it's hard to believe that Browne, by then a major star, was actually staying at a Holiday Inn). It's very '70s--the overall aura of cocaine-fueled decadence is almost palpable--but it works far better than you'd expect, and the songs are consistently memorable, even if Browne didn't write them all.
High points include a stunning half hotel/half concert version of Danny O'Keefe's "The Road," still the best song ever written about the life of a travelling musician, and the closing medley of the roadie anthem "The Load-Out" and Maurice Williams and the Zodiac's doo-wop classic "Stay." The hard rocking title tune features typically lyrical yet stinging slide guitar from long time associate David Lindley.
Recorded live in 1977.
Incl. 2 Prev.Unrel Tracks. CD+DVD-Audio
Personnel: Jackson Browne (vocals, guitar); Danny Kortchmar (guitar); David Lindley (lap steel guitar, fiddle); Craid Doerge (keyboards); Leland Sklar (bass); Russ Kunkel (drums); Doug Haywood, Rosemary Butler (background vocals).

Liner Note Authors: Anthony DeCurtis; Cameron Crowe.Uncut (p.88) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "At the center, in splendid isolation from the surrounding cast of characters, are Browne's boyishly earnest voice and its constant shadow throughout the decade: the keening lap-steel and doleful violin of David Lindley."
Dirty Linen (p.63) - "Writing rock songs about life on the road has long been a cliche, but the topic was never treated with such verve and condor as it was on Jackson Browne's 1977 album RUNNING ON EMPTY..." Hide Description Jackson Browne Running On Empty Songs | 1. | Running on Empty |

Running On Empty Music Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   Great Music, Defective Disc
I ordered "Running on Empty" for the DVD-A disk. The re-mastered original CD is quite good and sounds excellent.
I have returned this package twice, however, due to defects in the DVD-A disk. This is more to due with what they received from Rhino Records than CDUniverse, but it is something to be noted if you intend to by it.

 Fantastic Disc - Not Defective!
I can't say enough about this wonderful release. Probs that some people are encountering are due to firmware issues in their dvd player - specifically the Pioneer DV-563a. If you have this player and haven't gotten the firmware update, this will not be the only disc you will have probs with. Get it fixed (a free warranty service - search Google for info), and enjoy!!

 Worth the Wait...Almost
This is Jackson Browne at his best! The extra 2 songs are welcome as they help to recall an earlier era of 8-tracks and CB radios.
The DVD-A mix is excellent, especially with the live cuts. The listener is 9th row center instead of in the middle of the band.
My disc is defective in that I cannot use any of the menu without it locking up.

There Will Be No Wine Before Its Time
Hello Surround Friends!, If you were like me and waited what seemed like aeons for this title to come to fruition, I hope you agree that it was worth the wait. Vast improvement in the dynamics from the original, and a very welcome discrete surround mix. This disc should be played in its entirety to appreciate the Mr. Browne's motivation for this project. Buy now and enjoy! Thank you.

"You Rock My World" was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
The question for a 42-year-old Michael Jackson heading towards the end of 2001 was whether or not the self-proclaimed King Of Pop could make his presence known on the charts after having spent much of the '90s laying low. If the chart-topping position achieved by INVINCIBLE is any indication, then the answer is a resounding yes. The album is primarily produced by Jersey wunderkind Rodney Jerkins, and Jacko wasted no time tapping other top-flight artists and knob-twirlers to help out, including Teddy Riley, ...

$10.79
After DESTINY'S opening thumping baseline, funky guitar chords, and Michael Jackson's hiccuping "heeee-heee-heeee," there's only one sensible thing to do--blame it on the boogie. Or blame it on the Jacksons' 1978 platinum-selling album for being so damn good. The tenor of the times was finally right for the band, and everyone involved is on top form. With songs all written and produced by the Jacksons, the emphasis is on booty-shaking music with heart and real soul. Within a year Michael Jackson's OFF THE WALL album, on the charts for 52 weeks, would make him a force to be reckoned with. But on DESTINY, Michael's passion and desire is palpable, giving the album its real power and edge.
Besides "Blame it on the Boogie," DESTINY also features the disco-combustible "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)." Just about all the songs here are superlative, with standouts including ...
