[TheSangha024]

[jtyler5]

Back when "ol' stringbean" still had hair. For a guy who grew up in the Berkshires in MA, he can do a pretty decent job at the blues!

[theiceberry777]

@southernrockdrummer

His family summered on Martha's Vineyard but James Taylor actually grew up in Carrboro, North Carolina, where his father was a faculty member and then Dean of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine.

[southernrockdrummer]

@theiceberry777 Yup, I went to UNC and lived in an apartment in Carrboro, just north of Hwy 54. His dad was the head of pediatric medicine at NCMH.

3 people dont have souls

[southernrockdrummer]

@Donovanseay Those three are head up their ass trolls who probably think Blink 182 imakes awesome "music".

[MrBigfan007]

This was when he still had hair.

[oleole52]

Anyone know what Danny Kortchmar is up to now?He seemed to be the go-to guitarist on so many records in the 70's and 80's by Taylor,Linda Ronstadt,Warren Zevon,so many others.

[yesmeetoo]

Dam!!! Look how young he is. He even has all his hair!!!

[Backpagetear]

Kooch reminds me of Gerry Garcia sometimes

[MrMattd1234]

i saw this live at bridgewater hall in manchester in 1998 and he still rocked

[pirrung123]

Is that Jeff Beck ?

[datarecoil]

Berry goud! JT with full head of hippie hair Thanks for the view and tune

[rockinredneck57]

Sweet! Nice Thinline Telecaster too! Don't see them too often! James is a good player himself! Still a classic even today!

[MegaEgirl]

A tame version of a very Hot and thought provoking song...

[BDWFilms115]

my favorite tune by james taylor man.

[CassandraAntares]

Love it

[buddimack]

Real nice version,but didn,t he write it.?? I think it also was one of Elvis,s signiture songs.A different style but both very good.

[NorthsideBill]

Freeze dried, fat fried, chicken chokin motherfuckin blues, baby! Just the way it should be...

[Bigshanks14]

@NorthsideBill Hell yeah man :)

[montypython11111]

when i first listened to this

I could NOT believe this was sweet baby james

[Donniemona]

@montypython11111

Sweet Baby James is Alex Taylor's son. (James' nephew) The song "Sweet Baby James" was written By JT while on his way to see his nephew...James.

[WPrebirtha]

When everybody else joins James he just kind of sits back in his chair saying alright boys lets do this

[joeyy2001]

Although not the technically best version he's ever done, what a great one to see, love that flashback, and very unique.....I love that he plays it "seriously" vs how he usually does it ie in this half-jokey kinda way.

[flounderize]

Yes. it is again that virtue of JT to place very little notes but every one hits the spot. Then there is the change of signature into 3/4 for just the right amount of time... very special.

[jonpaulevans]

amazing version

[BryceShuster]

i think i spotted jesus in the back

[lotuscorpse]

Yeah, he's playin bass. He does that.

[GodStarRevisited69]

[DX1771]

[dellboy177]

[northrocks1283]

Talent!!!! the Best from Down Under

[13DCH]

'Down Under' ? WTF, M8 ?

I'm pretty and certain that James Taylor was born in Boston, Massachusetts; raised later in Carrboro, North Carolina.
