Classic Songs Review
Sweet Baby James Taylor set the standard for sincere pop singer/songwriters at the start of the 70's with his first big hit 'Fire & Rain'. Previously on the Beatles' Apple label, he quickly bolted over the Warner Bros. after Apple's first demise. He moved to Columbia Records in the late 70's and has remained there since. This disc is unique in that it marks the first time two major labels shared billing on a collection from a major artist. Taylor's best from both labels are on this CD.

JT meets JT to help heal

I got this special JT cd for my sister who is doing chemo for breast cancer. Her initials are JT, too. I hope it gives her some peace because she has it hard for a while. The cd did the trick for a friend's sister who was going through the same situation a while back. Work your magic, JT! :) - Michael

This is the first James Taylor CD I ever purchased, and I LOVED it. Later on, the CD became misplaced, and, rather than repurchase it, I went out and bought a bunch of the underlying CDs. My mistake. This import is a great collection which allows you to listen to all the good songs without a bunch of also-rans disturbing your listening pleasure. Buy this one CD it's worth the extra cost (and it covers much more time than the domestic greatest hits).

Until James comes out with an overdue Box Set this is the best overall compilation of his greatest songs that you'll find. It's much more comprehensive that the states Greatest Hits collection. Buy this!
