Jackson Browne closed the first month of the 1978 leg of the “Running On Empty” tour with two shows in Florida. At the end of last year, I shared the Miami show from the 29th taken from an excellent copy of CB’s low gen reels transferred by my JEMS partners. I’m pleased to add the penultimate night of this portion of the tour in St. Petersburg. This copy comes from a longtime Jackson Browne collector who wishes to remain anonymous.

This is the second release from his archives with the first being Detroit 1972. Anyone familiar with my Jackson uploads should be aware of my love for this tour. For me it’s Jackson’s sweet spot, a tour that features a tight band with an excellent setlist touring behind an album that can only be considered Jackson at his peak.

This show sandwiched between Miami on the 29th and Birmingham on the 26th (which Jackson comments on the lackluster Birmingham crowd during this show) does not disappoint and is one of the very best shows of this leg of the tour. Jackson is in a great mood, and comments numerous times about how great the audience is.

Quality is very good to excellent, close to the stage with good stability throughout only suffering from a possible generation or two loss. If the master ever surfaces it would easily make this, if not the best show, then one of the top 2 or 3 of the tour. If you are only collecting a few shows this one comes highly recommended.

In this time of uncertainty, our thoughts and prayers go out to Jackson and his family after his diagnosis with Covid-19. It sounds like he’s doing ok and currently recovering. As we all shelter at home, I hope shows like this lift you up and make it just a touch easier…stay safe out there.

A big thank you to the anonymous collector who so generously lent me the tapes to share with a wider audience!

Three months ago the extended JEMS family consisting of myself, slipkid68 and slowburn convened at JEMS South meeting up with BK to do some long needed organizing and evaluating some recent acquisitions to the archives.

One of these recent acquisitions was a collection of pristine low gen reels from the collection of CB, a long time taper/trader that many of you know from our past shares of his stellar Springsteen masters. The collection of reels has already resulted in a one major upgrade and one alternate source for two European ’81 Springsteen shows.

As we were organizing the reels, one spine caught my eye and hit me like a bolt of lightning “Jackson Browne Miami 1978”. After spending the last year focused on Jackson’s1977-1978 “Running On Empty” tour, I immediately knew Miami was, to my knowledge and research, completely uncirculated (or at least vastly under-circulated).

The “Running On Empty” Tour kicked off on August 11, 1977 still located here:
http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=634815
The first month of the tour were recorded resulting in the eventual release of the LP on December 6, 1977.
The first leg of the tour which resulted in the LP release appears to ran from August 11, 1977 to September 18, 1977. Other than a few benefits, an appearance on Saturday Night Live and a New Year’s Eve show at the Forum in LA, the balance of the year was focused on readying and releasing the LP.

The second leg of the tour, in which this show falls. ran from January 11, 1978 to January 29, 1978 before picking up again with two benefit concerts in Dallas beginning on March 28th.

Quality of this second leg closing night is very good and the performances are top-notch but unfortunately incomplete missing “Stay” and likely “The Road And The Sky” which was the common closer for this let.

I personally can’t get enough of this tour and this show easily fits in as one of the best. This is the fifth show I’ve had the pleasure to work on and release of this era with a few more still to go that are unfortunately on the rough side and one special surprise.

Samples and artwork included…

Thanks to BK for the transfer and the extended JEMS family….the biggest thanks goes to CB for his pristine reels and the source of another historically important show!

And on to Birmingham…the “Running On Empty” tour had been on the road since August and the band was now firing on all cylinders.
Opening night is posted here:
http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=634815

8 of the 10 songs on the LP, which came out on in December, are now being played, the Birmingham show is tightly focused with a ton of energy and one of my favorite ’77-’78 tour shows based on both the performance and quality of the capture.

The quality of the capture is near excellent, I’m still hopeful someday the master surfaces.

The raw tape ran extremely fast and had to be pitch adjusted by -70 cents, in addition, the due diligence that goes into all my releases have been executed, channel aligned, de-clicked, dc offset removed, external audience noises extracted and final mastering.

This one comes highly recommended even for the casual fan.

Thanks to M for the file…samples and artwork provided…

A solid show and good capture from the middle of the “Running On Empty” Tour. Recorded close to the stage likely using a recorder with an internal mic, we do get some instances of the music overpowering the mic creating some slight distortion.

A much longer show than what we have for Birmingham I posted from two nights before (Birmingham may be incomplete though there are no tell-tale cuts). It’s nice to get “Jamaica Say You Will” and “Song For Adam” which appear inconsistently throughout the tout.

Thanks once again to my long time trading ally MR for the file.
