Things haven't change since 1986

1. the upgrade

http://jacksonbrowne.com/Videos/Videos/Lives+In+the+Balance/default.aspx

acoustic and even more powerful IMHO

[AlphaCentauri]

2. That is really powerful

thanks for the update

[stellanoir]

3. yeah there is so much more strength in his voice and delivery

or so it seemed to me and. . . you're very welcome anytime.

[AlphaCentauri]

4. the lyrics of this song are so universal

that when they were written it was referring to a different war but the same behavior

[stellanoir]

5. consider googling Col. Smedley Butler

(yeah it's a totally weird name) but he was on the inside and this atrocious behavior has been going on for decades if not centuries.

It's sad but it's true.

There is a better way I swear.

6. I still like Jackson Browne's great song "Lives in the Balance"

It seems as fresh and vital today as it did way back then. K&R.
