This album is a bad idea and even worse product. Ditch the band and go solo in concert and record it for the 2009 tour. He now sounds too sweet and soft spoken.
That's really what we all want to hear. The band is way too big. JT should have stuck with a studio album with all of his good folk songs.
Go back to the old folk singer voice JT. His new songs are boring and predictable. He's changed his voice too.
He doesn't really need piano, strings, horns, female singers, etc. Just stick to the basics that made you great JT.
I won't buy the second. there has never been an album put out by this man that I have regretted purchasing. Until this one. I hope he gets this out of his system and goes back to doing his own stuff, or finds songs to cover that suit his style more. These weren't it.
I did not receive this item in my order. I only received the Carly Simon CD. Faith Matthis
There's a good mix of fast and slow songs on this album, but I always like the slow ones like Sadie and Suzanne the best. This album is no exception. There's something about James Taylor's mellow voice that just makes me feel all relaxed and comfortable every time I listen to him sing. Actually, there's not a weak one in the whole bunch. I was glad to see Wichita Lineman in this collection, a song I haven't even thought about in years. I think I like his version even better than Glen Campbell's. I bought the mp3 version and put it on my iPod. It's great to listen to when I'm out walking.
Great renditions of some old favorites by a great smoothie artist, James Taylor. Loved the easy listening and fun CD.
