"Of Missing Persons" is a very touching song Jackson Browne wrote in tribute to his friend Lowell George after Lowell died. He played it live twice. Lowell played on some of Jackson's albums, too. You can tell Lowell was missed by Jackson, and all of us in the rest of the world
I don't know what it is about this song - I first heard it a year or so after Lowell George died, and I just identified with it so strongly. I have felt the loneliness and despair of the music and lyrics (especially as sung by Mr. George) so intensely and so often.
This version has a different feel, but I like it. Jackson Browne obviously understands the song well and is a worthy interpreter of Lowell's music.
yes it was written by Lowell (rip) brother Jackson does a wonderful cover, but no one can sing it like Lowell,,must b true,,the good die young,,awol you are correct, off the last record albumn
The only version of this I've heard other than Lowell's I've ever liked. A beautiful, beautiful song, so full of heartbreak. It always packs a wallop for me.
One of my all time favourites, a beautiful song, sung so well by Jackson Browne, I cannot believe how long ago that Lowell George left this world, rest in peace Lowell
I have loved his music since the early 70's and I had thought I'd heard it all. I love this song. Lowell George involved? His sage advice makes this song even more beautiful. It makes me smile more than most of what he's sung throughout the years mainly because I've never heard it before. He never ceases to amaze me. "Time The Conquerer" is timely and a work of art.
nice but feat's version the best.

My favourite song and a nice version from one of Lowell's friends.
BTW the picture of Lowell with the red gibson 335 is actually Romeo from the Magic Numbers.

Very nice HC75!!! I LOVE the times where he talks before he sings. It makes everything more personable, in my VERY humble opinion :))
Thanks Flo for this and I will forever think of my YT family when I listen to this...

@Highcoaster75 I think you have a picture of the guy from the magic numbers in there, it's not Lowell, round 1.07 I think Lowell only played a strat
