The Three James Taylor Songs I Would Have At My Funeral
by
Harry Trowels
James Taylor was born 12 March 1948 in Boston, Massachusetts, the second of five children, to a father who practiced medicine and a mother who trained as an opera singer. Taylor was to become one of the biggest stars to emerge from the late 60s / early 70s folk-rock phenomenon, a more soulful practitioner than such earthier, troubadour predecessors as Woody Guthrie or Bob Dylan.

My Own James Taylor Music Appreciation Society
by
Harry Trowels
For a man who has gone through depression and drug addiction, divorce twice, serious personal injury (after a 1969 motorcycle accident in Martha's Vineyard) and family bereavement (with the loss of his brother Alex in 1993), it is astonishing that James Taylor's life in music has been largely an expression of sensitivity, hope and compassion - not of self-pity, anger or blind hostility. For these reasons alone, I appreciate James Taylor music so much.

James Taylor Guitar Hero
by
Harry Trowels
As a pioneer of the folk-rock, singer/songwriter movement so prevalent and influential in the late 60s and early 70s, James Taylor has enjoyed an accolade-strewn career spanning some forty years, comprising legendary recordings, concerts and sadly, personal travails. His work as a guitarist stands up to comparison with many other, lauded talents in that arena, so I feel it is not inappropriate to put forward the epithet 'James Taylor Guitar Hero'. His technical proficiency and subtle fluency as a finger picker are second to none and there are many examples in his catalogue that bear witness to this.

James Taylor, "Carolina In My Mind", and A 40 Year Old Mystery
by
Garrett Sawyer
James Taylor's "Carolina in my mind" was generally considered to be his first hit although it never reached the Billboard Top 40 chart (that honor would be reserved for his classic "Fire and Rain"). Part of the song was sung about a woman whose identity would remain a mystery for nearly 40 years. Find out who she really was.
