Long.”<br />

songs, including “Faithless Love,” “Simple<br />
Man, Simple Dream” and “Prisoner in<br />
Disguise.”<br />
Souther also has found success as a solo<br />
artist. His single “You’re Only Lonely”<br />
reached the Top 10 and was quickly followed<br />
by “Her Town, Too,” which Souther<br />
co-wrote with James Taylor. The Dixie<br />
Chicks 1998 hit “I’ll Take Care of You,”<br />
also was written by Souther and featured<br />
on their album “Wide Open Spaces,”<br />
which sold more than 11 million records.<br />

Stanley Clarke, Donald Byrd,<br />
Chuck Domanico, Johnny Guerin, Chris<br />

Souther was inducted into the Songwriter’s<br />
Hall of Fame in 2013.<br />
On his latest studio album, “Tenderness”<br />
(Sony Music Masterworks), Souther<br />
creates a perfect balance of understated<br />
jazz with the ineffable pop narratives that<br />
have been the backbone of much of his<br />
greatest work. His classic albums “John<br />
David Souther,” “Black Rose” and “Home<br />
by Dawn” have been released as expanded<br />
reissues by Omnivore Recordings.<br />
