Jackson Browne “Late for the Sky” (1974)
One of those artifacts that sort of sum up the 1970s for me, along with the films Annie Hall, Nashville and Three Women. Like those movies, Late for the Sky deals with the aftermath of a romance in dreamy, almost surreal style. If you're looking for rock, look elsewhere; but if you lean to the Nick Drake/Tim Buckley end of the singer-songwriter spectrum and you've been put off by Browne's reputation for cloying navel-gazing, then put your prejudices aside and listen to this record. –Brad
