  • James Taylor is no stranger to the Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, OH.
    As of 2023, James has performed at Blossom more than any other featured performer: 26 times in the past five decades.
    In 1979, James was celebrating the release of his most recent studio album, “Flag”, with an extensive U.S. concert tour that included the Blossom Music Festival. The concert was taped for release by Warner Bros, produced by Peter Asher and Stanley Dorman. This was James’ first ever commercial video release.

    LYRICS
    Steamroller Blues by James Taylor
    Well, I’m a steamroller, baby
    I’m bound to roll all over you
    Yes, I’m a steamroller now, baby
    I’m bound to roll all over you
    I’m gonna inject your soul with some sweet rock ‘n roll
    And shoot you full of rhythm and blues
    Well, I’m a cement mixer
    A churning urn of burning funk
    Yes, I’m a cement mixer for you, baby
    A churning urn of burning funk
    Well, I’m a d-d-demolition derby (yeah)
    A hefty hunk of steaming junk
    Now, I’m a love bomb, baby
    Just guaranteed to blow your mind
    Yeah, I’m a love bomb for you, baby
    Oh, guaranteed, just guaranteed to blow your mind
    And if I can’t have your love for my own (now)
    Sweet child, won’t be nothing left behind
    It seems how lately, baby
    Well I’m a steamroller for you, baby, child

    One of my favorites specially at Arizona State Fair many many years ago when I let out an agonizing ouch and it had just so happen to have gotten quiet and you chuckled ,that was back in the day when you did it slow and agonizing. You've always been my best therapy

    I guessed thru time James avoid the "chicken talkin MF" part at the near end of the song because more and more children were brought by their parents to watch his concert.and he was aware of that.
