Music with a purpose has always caught my atention and "Lives in the balance" is no exception to that rule as it contains as much entertaining value as it contains messages. Messages we can relate to even today ,23 years after it was first released. The Genre' blending release is amazing and deserves "a spin".
Go out and get it and "give it a spin"

a sideline note
Jackson Browne has participated in the "Steel Bridge" gathering in Sturgeon Bay over the past few years.He supports Wisconsin, so why not support him?

from Lives in the balance

"Ive been waiting for something to happen
For a week or a month or a year
With the blood in the ink of the headlines
And the sound of the crowd in my ear
You might ask what it takes to remember
When you know that youve seen it before
Where a government lies to a people
And a country is drifting to war"
Jackson Browne
