Saturday, January 27, 2018 - The NAMM Show - Jackson Browne and The Section To Be Honored At NAMM TEC Awards



Jackson Browne will be honored by the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) at the 33rd Annual NAMM Technical Excellence & Creativity Awards (NAMM TEC Awards), being held Saturday, January 27, 2018 in Anaheim, CA. Browne will receive the prestigious Les Paul Innovation Award given on behalf of the Les Paul Foundation to “honor individuals that have set the highest standards of excellence in the creative application of recording technology in the spirit of the famed audio pioneer, inventor and musician, Les Paul.”

Browne, who was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 and into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2007, released his debut album on David Geffen’s Asylum Records in 1972. Since then, he has released fourteen studio albums and four collections of live performances, and has sold over 18 million albums in the U.S.

In a statement issued on the official NAMM’s website, Les Paul Foundation Executive Director Michael Braunstein said that, “Jackson Browne’s success as a singer, songwriter and guitarist has had a prolific impression on the music industry throughout his successful career. Like Les Paul, Jackson has never shied away from expressing his emotions or thoughts through his music. I have no doubt that Les would have liked to share a few jams with Jackson along the way.”



Also being honored that night will be The Section as the newest inductees to the NAMM TEC Hall of Fame. Dubbed the “Knights of Soft Rock” by Rolling Stone, reaching their peak in the Seventies playing alongside the biggest names in the business, including James Taylor, Carole King, and Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Section released three of their own albums and toured and recorded with Jackson Browne in various occasions. Danny Kortchmar (guitar), Craig Doerge (keyboards), Leland Sklar (bass), and Russ Kunkel (drums) will reunite on stage for a rare performance in support of the evening’s celebration. The Section will also be the panel in a discussion of Jackson Browne’s 1977 album “Running on Empty” moderated by Mr. Bonzai (David Goggin) being held at 4:00 pm.

Jackson Browne - Running On Empty
Asylum 6E-113 (1977) - US LP
Elektra/Rhino 8122-78283-2 (2005) - Deluxe US CD/DVD-audio reissue with 2 bonus tracks and added content

Side One

1 - Running On Empty*
2 - The Road*
3 - Rosie
4 - You Love The Thunder*
5 - Cocaine

Side Two

6 - Shaky Town*
7 - Love Needs A Heart*
8 - Nothing But Time*
9 - The Load-Out*
10 - Stay*

CD/DVD-Audio reissue bonus tracks (on DVD-Audio disc only)

11 - Cocaine Again
12 - Edwardsville Room 124*

Notes: 1) Above picture and following credits were taken from the 2005 CD/DVD-Audio reissue which consists of a 2-disc package, one an audio CD and one an Advanced Resolution DVD-Audio disc. Both discs present the original 1977 album’s content with different remixes and masterings. 2) Bonus tracks 11 & 12 are included on the DVD-Audio disc only. Track 12 in particular is an instrumental cut by The Section (Lee, Russell Kunkel, Danny Kortchmar and Craig Doerge). Please see the Section entry of this blog’s archive for this group’s discography. 3) Tracks 3 and 8 on the 2005 DVD-Audio disc have different running times/content from their CD-Audio counterparts in the same release: “Rosie” (track 3) has a few seconds of added dialogue on fade out; “Nothing But Time” clocks in at 6’23” as opposed to the original 3’08”, the missing part consisting primarily of a conversation between Jackson Browne and some players in the band over the continuation of the musical track that had been faded-out in the ‘classic’ mix. 4) Both versions of Track 1 (“Running on Empty”) in the 2005 re-issue are different from the ‘classic’ mixes issued so far. The 2005 CD-Audio cut starts dry, without the few seconds of ambient noise that were preceding the performance on the original vinyl album/CD. The 2005 DVD-Audio cut, on the contrary, keeps the ambient noise but adds a Jackson Browne’s voice-over of the first line of the song’s lyrics, right before the song’s intro. 5) DVD-Audio disc includes: a) album in Dolby 5.1 Surround mix; b) album in Dolby Stereo mix; c) album in DTS 5.1 Surround mix; d) photo gallery; e) “Running On Empty” video montage; f) “Tour Photo Album” video montage; g) lyrics; f) weblink. 6) New 2005 packaging includes a small reproduction of the original 8-page photo-booklet that came with the vinyl album plus two essays: “Making the Road His Own: Jackson Browne’s Running On Empty” by Anthony DeCurtis, and “The Photography of Joel Bernstein: The Perfect Accompaniment to a Timeless Album” by Cameron Crowe. 7) New CD booklet keeps all of the pictures from original booklet, with same positioning, scaling and cropping, but for the Rosemary Butler and Doug Haywood picture on bottom right of page 3, which has been slightly widened and re-cropped.
