JD SOUTHER
Chicago 2019 [no label, 1CD]
Live at the City Winery, Chicago, ILL; March 3, 2019. Fairly to very good audience recording.
Singer-songwriter JD Souther is probably best known for his well-honed writing abilities, especially in the field of country rock. He co-wrote some of the biggest hits for the Eagles, including Best Of My Love, Victim Of Love, Heartache Tonight, and New Kid in Town. He wrote Run Like A Thief, which appeared on Home Plate by Bonnie Raitt in 1975. Souther dated Linda Ronstadt briefly, co-produced her Don’t Cry Now album, and wrote songs for several of her multi-platinum albums. - wikipedia
“”Hanging out in the bar at the Troubadour with Glenn Frey and Jackson Browne and playing open mike Mondays, then opening for Poco and The Flying Burrito Brothers - it was the best study in songwriting I can imagine… It’s also where I met Linda Ronstadt and where Don Henley and Glenn Frey met to form this little country rock band called Eagles that would go on to make musical history.” - jdsouther.net

Thanks to analog4011 for sharing the show at Dime.
analog4011 noted:
First time seeing him. I liked this one. I was sent to both early and late shows. This late set has more songs and he was in a better mood. Karla Bonoff was the opener and she joined in on his sets. It cranks on that good stereo without the (ouch turn it down syndrome).
