Album of the Day

Starting in his teens as a professional singer and songwriter, Jackson Browne was well prepared for his eponymous 1972 debut. Sometimes referred to as “Saturate Before Using” after a phrase on the cover, the Asylum collection is filled with strong material, from introspective ballads like “Song for Adam” to such catchy tracks as “Rock Me on the Water” and Top 10 hit “Doctor, My Eyes.” Browne's appealing voice, guitar and piano are joined in the studio by a bevy of stellar guests, including Albert Lee, Sneaky Pete Kleinow and two-thirds of CSN. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's Platinum-certified first album has just been remastered for digital release, and JACKSON BROWNE sounds better than ever.
