A song and Greg photo gallery for the version of this song that I think is the best.

First recording of “These Days” was by Nico, managed by Andy Warhol.

As JB tells the story on his “solo acoustic” album, he played electric guitar on that track and agreed to allow the use in a movie.

Well, years later, he was sitting in a theater watching a movie and heard an electric guitar in the background music and thought, “Hey, I used to play just like that!”

The audience at his solo concert laughed...

I believe Jackson Browne has given credit to Gregg Allman for the arrangement of the song as it appeared on Browne’s album ‘For Everyman’.

There is a version of Greg Allman and Jackson Browne playing this song together on youtube. Jackson Browne wrote this song when he was 16 yo. Nico was the first to record it as far as far as I know (in the 1960s). I like Greg’s version best. The JB version is not bad either.
