    I love James Taylor's music... Saw this lovely man and his band years back in concert in Sydney. They are simply fantastico! I met up with the best of friends and we were running a little late and decided to take a short cut to the theatre. Oops... we ended walking to a high barbed wire fence... as I said we were running late.. So, we did the most logical thing and jumped (scrambled with difficulty) over the fence. I tore my dress.. Oh well... However we made it in time for the start of the concert- J T is brilliant live. 🤍 And then again, a concert with Carole King years later and nothings changed... Simply Fantastic! I hope James T makes it to Australia again for a concert.

    • @Smedley1947
      @Smedley1947 11 місяців тому

      Very seldom does any rendition of the song surpass the original studio recording. Sure I can appreciate alternate versions but the groove that was worn in my brain by hearing a song hundreds perhaps thousands of times is permanent. I don't know if everybody is this way or not, but for me alternate versions just don't click right. This is a great version however and I'm sure if I was in the audience I would be swallowed up in the moment. There's just something about live music even if it's not the exact studio version. It's a Gestalt experience, the whole scene with other people and the live musicians is one of the greatest Pleasures in life. I don't do it much anymore at 76, but I used to love to go to bars that featured live music and "dance the night away".

      I think this is a great arrangement of the song, which is what you hear when you go to see him in concert. The version you hear on the album isn't set in stone. Obviously, it's the same song, but it gets changed as they play it over time and take it out on the road. I love the album, but if I had to choose, I'd pick this arrangement any day--the Latin rhythm, the energy, the intro plus the extended ending with the harmony of the backup singers. I think it's phenomenal.
