Jackson Browne's third album, "Late for the Sky," is being inducted into the National Recording Registry this year.

Late for the Sky was released a year later, a year after that it won a Grammy for the singer, songwriter and activist. David Geffen was the head of Browne’s label, and he wanted this album to cost less than Browne’s last record. This time, Jackson Browne kept the band down to a tight group including bassist Doug Haywood, Jai Winding on keyboards, Larry Zack on drums and David Lindley on guitars, lap steel and fiddle.
