This great performance was part of the 1979 "No Nukes" concert series in New York. You will also find performances by Bruce Springsteen, Doobie Brothers, Jackson Brone and Crosby, Stills & Nash
Did you know that James Taylor and Catly Simon were married and have 2 children together? Sadly, James former addiction issued contributed to their divorce. Thank you for doing this one, Sarah! As always, a ray of sunshine on an overcast day. 😂😇😊🌹
Another beautiful Taylor/Simon duet that is very intimate is called "Close Your Eyes." Filmed in their living room at their former home, it was a look at life when things were simpler & less "sophisticated." Very much worth your time Sarah, even of you don't post it as a reaction video. Stay well, and as always, thank you for bringing some light into my dwindling days. You are truly respected and appreciated. 😇🙏🌹
Thank you so much for showing this! I’m a huge James Taylor and Carley Simon fan,and I had never seen this! I got a first reaction too! Just phenomenal!
I think he did too. This is the most animated I’ve ever seen either of them. I always liked this song so I was thrilled when I first saw this performance. It’s so much fun, even though it’s hard to ignore the sad way their relationship would later end.
...gooosh Sarah - I know this song since it was a hit with them originally in 1974, but I never saw this live performance, and it blew me away, as it did with you... so much fun and energy - looved this soo much!!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜💖 PS. James Taylor's 'Greatest Hits' album is one of my favourites of all time - each song is outstanding and ever-lasting - absolutely unique and magical! 🌈
James Taylor, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel sang on a cover of the song "What a Wonderful World This Would be," an old Sam Cooke hit, [which the Herman's Hermit's Later had a hit with] and it did fairly well on the charts in the mid 1970's. This is NOt to be confused with th eLuois Armstrong song "What a Wonderful World," it's NOT the same song, the titles are just similar.
I was born in 1968; grew up with "Mockingbird". My parents had this record! Love it! Thanks for the memory!

They were?! No wonder! That’s sad though they looked so great together
Sarah. James Taylor is a rabbit hole to go down. Endless brilliant songs from his back catalogue
So much fun! 😄
This is why I always recommend this performance. It's so fun & uplifting, isn't it?
Back in the days when the music was real. The real deal.
These 2 had fun U can't help but Enjoy it too! BTW- they had 2 beautiful kids, all grown up now Where has time gone

It was a very nice catchy tune.
Fun fact: Carly Simon broke her shyness in this performance!

It's real music from two great artists

This brings back great childhood memories!! Love this and your reaction!!
Music was joyous back then I know I was there 😅
Creative Collaboration
James Taylor and Carole King duets are also superb
This is sort of a nursery rhyme song. Kids used to sing it when parents sang it to them.

They divorced but had two beautiful children, Sally and Ben, who both sing.
They don’t make music like that anymore
No Sir
They sure don’t.
