Lives In The Balance
Jackson Browne
The tracks address foreign policy and the complexities of the mid-eighties. Although synthesizers and modern production techniques reflect the period, the songwriting remains firmly in the Asylum Records tradition.
It acts as a restless document of a turbulent time. The personal and political become intertwined, showcasing an artist moving away from introspection to grapple with broader societal issues.
