The common thread in all these sessions is Dawes who back Jackson Browne and Jonathan Wilson on the sessions broadcast. I was putting together the Dawes session of 19th August which reminded me of the other shows which also featured Dawes. Fortunately they were still buried on a hard drive. The broadcasts on 18th September 2011 are part of the session that Jackson Browne did for a series called Old Grey Whistle Test at 40. He apparently asked that both Jonathan and Dawes be allowed to record their own material as well as back him, hence the songs on 18th September. I left the Take It Easy/Our Lady of the Well as one track rather than split the tracks as the intention was that they be segued together.I have tagged the tracks in the sequence above ie 19th August/18th September and 21st September as, to my mind, that flowed better (obviously others may find this confusing in which case change your own copy as you see fit).
To the best of my research none of the tracks have been made available commercially. I have seriously edited/faded in/out the discussed commercial tracks as per Dime policies even though it is criminal to edit out anything from Late for the Sky which IMHO is the best CD ever made.And Yes, the Stand By Me is THE Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali for the youngsters out there). I didn't know he had ever recorded that song or any others.
Health warning: The version of Our Lady of the Well is seriously, seriously good.
You may already have all the Jackson Browne CDs but both Dawes and Jonathan Wilson are well worth investigating if you haven't already done so.
