Recently, on a Byrds Binge of musical feasting, I noticed that an extra track on their Easy Rider (With Extra Cuts) CD included the song: "Mae Jean Goes To Hollywood", written by Jackson Browne!
We know he was impressing many as a teen with original songs BEFORE his debut release LP. Do we know how many songs he wrote, were recorded by other artists but never recorded?
Índice Show
Or, do we know which songs he wrote and were recorded by others BEFORE he recorded them?
This would be the place to list them. Is it possible, some were written under psuedonyms?
Eagles recorded and released "Take It Easy" before Jackson.
Good idea for a thread.
.
Didn't Nico cut "These Days" before anybody else?
I remember an early composition from a songbook I had called "Shadow Dream Song" that I don't think Jackson ever recorded.
The Fairest of the Seasons
Somewhere There's a Feather
both on Nico's Chelsea Girl with JB on guitar
this album also had the first release of These Days
Tom Rush, Greg Allman and Steve Noonan all recorded "Shadow Dream Song."
A great song.

The Rush recording is on his 1968 masterpiece, The Circle Game, which also includes songs by then relative unknowns James Taylor and Joni Mitchell.
I grew up in the musical community that supported lots of great musicians some of whom you know, like Jackson, and others you don't (and some were pretty damn good). So let's see off the top of my head I can think of a few-
The Dirt Band recorded "It's Raining Here In Long Beach" and Hoyt Axton recorded "She's A Flying Thing," and The Hour Glass recorded "Cast Off All My Fears," and Michael Johnson recorded "My Opening Farewell," and the Byrds, I think, also covered "Jamaica, Say You Will,", Johnny Darrell was the first to record and release "Mae Jean goes to Hollywood," and the Eagles recorded "Nightingale," and Hedge and Donna did "From Silverlake," Linda Rondstat recorded "Rock Me On The Water,"...
Thanks! .... And all others, awesome. There's at least another, it's stuck in my cobwebs , hope to remember soon.

"The Birds of St. Marks" is a song by Jackson Browne. The song was originally recorded on April 6, 1970[1] as a demo for Criterion Music, but was not officially recorded until his 2005 album Solo Acoustic, Vol. 1. The song was originally written for guitar, as recorded in the Criterion Demos, but the live version featured on Solo Acoustic, Vol. 1 is performed by Jackson Browne on piano. The song depicts a queen behind castle walls, imprisoned in sadness and loneliness by her royal position.
The song was inspired by singer Nico. During a stint in New York City before his own solo career, Jackson Browne served as backing guitarist for Nico both on record and in live performance. They were also lovers for a short time. One interpretation of the song is that Nico is the queen, trapped within the manipulations of her "manager", Andy Warhol, and unable to be free to follow her own muse.

In addition to the Solo Acoustic performance, Jackson plays the song on his 1994 concert video "Going Home".[2][3] The song is also featured in the 2007 movie Reign Over Me starring Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle.
