    These sounds from Taylor and Simon are among my first and brightest happy memories. It may seem trivial. But there is a point in everyone's life in which we desperately cling to our childhood memories. Its easier to re visit the bright ghosts of music than to think of taking a single step forward into the blinding darkness . For some it is all the happiness there is.

      What a beautiful way to put it! Apt and eloquently stated. I awoke today feeling nostalgic for a childhood that in many ways was brutal. But... I survived and I am now in my 50's. I am the example of bad times making you a stronger person. A cliche, but also apt in it's way. This vid came up on my feed and brought back so many memories. Music has been the one single thing in my life that has never let me down. I wouldn't be here without it. James and Carly were such a gorgeous couple and their music so very beautiful. This brought back good memories and feelings. I am most grateful for this respite. Bless

It touched me so much because I've experienced ( & continue to do so) the longing for the bygone Era they made their music in along w/my own personal memories & bittersweet longing(s). Thank you. Be happy. ❤

    I was on the vineyard many summers and one of them in 1980- James had a party and invited the whole island. It was an outdoor party and he played as long as his brother and sister. What a great time it was. Back in the day, it was all so innocent then.

      I'm 42. We know. You need to talk to people under 30.
      HOWEVER your other sentence is awful. what do you mean by screaming about your lot in life and how does that relate to this video? people have every right to confront racism, sexism, homophobia etc. every right. The only reason you don't want to hear it is you're probably guilty of it and you're likely privileged enough not to experience it. Lucky you but you're not going to try to convince people that they shouldn't have what you have. They have every right to shout for what they want. It should bother you that people who don't look like you aren't experiencing the same basic requirements.
      'Bully the world' - yes because that's possible isn't it? Jesus Christ. Why ruin this whole video with your repulsive soapboxing? These two aren't affected by racism or homophobia so OF COURSE they're not talking about it. All we're seeing is a couple with babies. It still exists.

I remember women spoke more softly and men were more quieter in a general manner. maybe it's where I grew up but I do remember it being different. I was shocked when I went to London a few years ago and waiting for a train and noticed how quiet everyone was, and not many people were on their phones. They were more contemplative than people in the US are. It's sad that we've gotten to this place in our culture.

      🕵 It's unfair that Carly Simon only got inducted in 2022 when James Taylor got in 22 yrs earlier. IMHO he had only 1 really good song, Fire and Rain, and that was in the beginning of his career while she kept coming out with big hits like Nobody Does It Better, You're So Vain, Working Girl theme, etc. Her family was ahead of their time too. Her father was the co-founder of publishing house Simon & Schuster, and her family shared their home with Jackie Robinson and his family for a year and a half in the 1950s when racial tension made it hard for them to move to the suburbs.

      There's a saying. Nothing ventured nothing gained. Love is so precious, and unique. It's a shame to not grab your chance at love when it comes to you. I think people think too much today. Every love is different and many kinds and types. You can love someone yet not be in love with them. No two are alike. Some are intense, to love someone else more than yourself. To the point that you can't live without each other. That is the greatest love of all. And no I wouldn't trade it for anything in this world. Yes, it hurts when they pass away and leave you behind. And no my heart hasn't healed and never will. Yet I would be sooooo happy to be in love again. You will yearn for it. And savor each and every little thing about it. All your special moments. Indelibly written in your mind, heart and soul. If you don't, I'm sorry for you. Cause you're missing out on life's greatest gifts. This is what life is all about. Think about it.

      However, not forgetting the Vietnam war, the assasination of the Kennedy's, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King.
      The music of the 60's, 70', 80' and 90' was the best era.
      The music, the girls today with tattoos, botox, false nails and hair extensions makes one cringe...

Carly also narrates the book and she has a lovely and soothing speaking voice. Spoiler: James had a young Asian girlfriend, that + his ongoing drug problem pretty much ended their marriage.

    Oh this interview makes me homesick. I'm from New England in CT. I actually spent summers on the Vineyard in Oaks Bluffs in the 90s. My uncle& aunt had 2 summer homes there. One year my family and I rode over on the ferry and Suzanne DePasse and her mother were on board. Another time Spike Lee was on the ferry when my cousin rode over. My uncle's other home is in Edgartown not far from where the Kennedy's have a home. One summer when we were riding around in open jeeps we went by the Kennedy home and they were having this lavish lawn party. It was great. I miss those times and they seem so long ago. I'm in NC now & came here via living out near Seattle, WA which I lived out there for a few years also. I haven't been to the Vineyard in years. One day I'll get back there, but New England winters are cold. Brrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! James and Carly are awesome artists, songwriters and vocalists. Would love to see James live.

    To all those who idealize these times...James was a hardcore heroine addict and "free love" meant he was constantly bringing back STDs. And she was a co-dependent with daddy issues. They both wrote books, I propose you read before romantasizing that time

    Wow! How much more do I NOT know? James Taylor taught me how to play the acoustic guitar. I could play every song on his first record "lick for lick" and it taught me how to play. To this day, I give credit. Never, EVER knew the "Beatles back story", but WOW, doesn't it make sense? Ooh, what a lucky man, I am! Apologies all around!

    The clip just oozes estrangement. You can see a clear and present resentment James resonates towards Carly. It’s as if; he feels inadequate in comparison to her success? Perhaps this had only reinforced a significant number of infidelities; as justified? WOW!
    Was never aware of Taylor’s isolated and yet; self-gratifying character until watching this significantly reserved chemistry between the two.

    I wish someone could unearth James Taylor's late 60's performances on Bobbie Gentry's B.B.C variety show. The audio exists and is superb. The B.B.C syndicated the series sending black and white kinescope copies to their Commonwealth partners( they did not receive color television until the 1970's) so it could very well still exist. Bobbie Gentry had talent and good taste giving a young Elton John and James Taylor some of their first television exposure. I was thrilled last year when the B.B.C rebroadcast the four surviving episodes that included The Hollies and Donovan.

    I met Peter Asher, very lovely guy. I love seeing this footage as I remember it all back in the day, even when he was with Joni. It is sad it did not last. James now says it was premature to be married so young. Maybe for him, but not for Carly or myself. I think that is a cop-out. I still love Carly and James' music so much, still listen happily.

  • @VideoFanatic02
