@attybong Try not to think of it as rusty, maybe as maturity. Try to respect and grow with it. I was fortunate to see J.D. back around 1976 opening for the Eagles, who he wrote or helped write many of their songs. The encore was J.D. and all of the Eagles band playig Tequilla Sunrise in a row, together on accoustics. It was unforgettable. I would still love to go see J.D. play somewhere. He's a fantastic songwriter and plays from the heart.
JD is such a classic! Talented songwriter. This song makes me wish I could go back to the early 70's for one Friday night and hang out at the Troubadour bar - what a cool time that must have been.
@glenn1411 I have the four CDs I was able to find by JD Souther: You're Only Lonely, Black Rose, Home by Dawn and his latest "If The World Was You". Have listened to them all several times but the "You're Only Lonely" CD remains my favorite at this point in time. I love the harmony of Phil Everly with JD on "White Rhythm and Blues" . The duet with James Taylor (who I remember as "Sweet Baby James" so you can tell I am an old lady!) Gotta love youtube for so many great songs for us all!
Just rediscovered J.D. a couple of weeks ago and listen to his "You're Only Lonely" CD constantly! Have all his available CDs I think and he is one performer who still sounds great!
Buy his early seventies album BLACK ROSE its one of the BEST ones,,,you might just have discoverd J.D. as a solo artist but you will have heard many of the great songs he composed,he co-wrote lots of Eagles Songs, and had some memorable duets with people like Linda Ronstadt,and Karla Bonoff
this is the difference between the love of music and the love of money... JD loved music and Frey love money... and all i can say i wud definitely pay 200 dollars to see this man with binoculars rather then to see glenn frey up close...
Certainly agree with your comment, J.D. Souther is about the music, the Eagles traded in their blue jeans for Armani suits, you'd think they'd had made enough money by now,banning their music here because of copyright,whats all that about,? have definately forgotten where they came from and what they were about.Don Felder,and Bernie Leadon arnt missing anything,!
Dear God, thank you for our Prophets, like JD.

Can't help thinking the Eagles would have been somewhat less special without his involvement.

Since you're a fan (like me), wondered whether you knew the Souther, Hillman, Furay Band material. I have the 2 CD's and could share.

Stunning! Beautiful! Far far better than the Eagles treatment of the song. I can listen to JD Souther 24/7. Thank you very much.
