BigKahune Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Just the other day I watched the Taylor/King Troubadour DVD again - on a PBS pledge drive. A couple of great writers and performers. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 James Taylor was too noble for me as a young cat, but things change. Saw him in concert for the second time last summer and it was once again tremendous. The way they master the not too fast, slow, wild nor lazy zone, is amazing. They cover just about every mid-flavour there is, no bar left unspirited or vapid. Coincidence made me have a chat with Mr. Gadd (a little rhyme for you there) walking around relaxing in Tivoli before the show. I'm supposed to be a grown up now, still had to ask for an autograph. (His floor-tom sound alone should be reason enough). What's very interesting about the interview, is the way Taylor writes a cappella. Just hum away and fix some unexpected chords later. Long live sweet baby J.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how he writes chords first then works out the melody....very interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl M Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 There is never a bad time to listen to James Taylor. I love them all, but this one is my all time favorite. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuH-Jhepk6o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
