Jackson Browne is an appropriate artist for a Route 66 site. As you’ve mentioned before on this blog, he was the co-writer of “Take It Easy.”
In addition, two of the songs from the “Running on Empty” album, “Cocaine” and “Shaky Town” were recorded Aug. 18, 1977, in Room 124 of the Holiday Inn in Edwardsville, Ill. The Holiday Inn was on Route 66 (now Illinois 157). The hotel is now a Comfort Inn.
Browne was in town because he was performing at the Mississippi River Festival, which was at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville.
