J. D. SOUTHER
J. D. Souther (born November 2, 1945), commonly abbreviated as JD Souther, is an American musician, singer-songwriter, and actor. He is considered by the Songwriters Hall of Fame to be “a principal architect of the Southern California sound and a major influence on a generation of songwriters”. He has written and co-written numerous hit songs recorded by artists such as Linda Ronstadt and the Eagles. (More from Wikipedia)
As a producer, Peter Asher was second to none in the 1970’s; James Taylor was his other main client. Together with his work with Linda Ronstadt, Asher helped create the Southern California sound of that time period by producing albums for J. D. Souther, Andrew Gold and Bonnie Raitt.
