I agree with that youthful nostalgia, Dreamgirl. I grew up in the same part of So Cal as JB. I remember those clubs, even tho' I am younger ("In '65 I was 17..." but 7!) The Golden Bear in Huntington Beach across from the pier on PCH was hallowed ground.
Summer nights in high school, piled into someone's car or van, driving up the 405 to Westwood and Santa Monica and West Hollywood.
One thing. When the resources are there to write these lyrics correctly, to see Jimi Hendrix spelled as "Jimmy" is unacceptable. A couple titles are wrong as well.
@MMMerry Yeah, not necessarily Jimi Hendrix...in fact, unlikely to have anything to do with Hendrix, who was already dead by the time Browne was playing the clubs in LA.

@MMMerry it is not Jimi Hendrix he is speaking of. It’s Jimmie Spheeris an amazing song writer who died in a motorcycle crash in 1984. Jackson and Jimmie were friends.

It may not havebeen the same Jimmy. Jackson played with other bands.
