One of my favorite songs ever. It sounds great live and on the "Hourglass" cd. Carlos Vega was indeed perfect for JT's style. Not many drummers have such finesse; I am amazed by the feeling he helped JT convey. Get "Hourglass" and you'll see what I mean.
I loved Carlos Vega more than any drummer i ever saw. early 79-80s ? I mean Vinnie C your the shit and Tony and Billy and Chester and Simon and Peart and Buddy all ya all prolly would agree...props bows and groveling, but.. In the early 80s when I was a teenager I would go see C V play w the L.A. latin allstars and man, you know you were in the audience and his vibe was just beyond. He could cut loose and it was like a waterfall of unbelievable
Sorry for the short length of this video. I have the full version (I have most of the concert, too). However, this is my first ever upload and I wanted to test out a DvD-MP4 convertor. (Cont'd)
Oh, please upload the full version again, even if they removed it before!

The only drummer that I have seen that can approach Carlos is Steve Gadd... but what do I know, I'm English!

Carlos was one of the best and suits James Taylor's music perfectly
