… toastanjam1967,
thank you for that.
It is indeed a very unique stye, of strumming and finger picking.
I do know, he follows the notes he picks out, very carefully.
On some songs his Guitar playing has developed over the years. Songs such as , ” Sweet Baby James” and the chords in this song.
The only thing is, I cannot see him play them so clear, and this makes the sound ( to me ) of two Guitars at times.
@ajengland ….no, … @ajengland ….no, there is no other guitarist performing here. I’ve followed James for decades, and I’ve tried to learn his style. I’ve managed to learn a few of his songs, but he has such a unique style of chording… he’s at least as amazing of a guitarist as he is a singer and songwriter….. the best of our time!
James Taylor is … James Taylor is amazing. He is one of a kind. His singing is always crystal clear as his words are always so clear, crisp and easy to understand. What a legend this guy is. The people of the Berkshires really LOVE this guy. His concerts are always sold out. Thanks for posting this.
Can anyone tell me, … Can anyone tell me, if there is another Guitarist playing along with James Talyor?
It is just that his playing, does not seem to follow the sound on this Video.
This is not, in anyway a slur on James Taylor, it is just a question.
My brother just … My brother just recently posted his version of this great James Taylor song. If interested, his name is Matthew Moore if you’d like to see/hear his version of “Fire and Rain”. Thanks.
Ofcourse James you … Ofcourse James you are a gentle soul, and part of the soul that u have put in to ur songs, specially this one makes u more respected and loved.. i wish i could get the glympse of yours.. and could create some beautiful pieces too.. just for my self would be fine, i dont think big unless it turn big.. hehe.. Liked you, Respects you.. and listen you more…. hope u read this..
One of the best, go … One of the best, go JT, miss you…everybody has problems, he had them and still was a star and well loved, what did u do today? u guys r nuts
Amo essa música, … Amo essa música, lembro-me de quando era muito nova, você cantava ela pra mim, dizia que tinha meu nome, por isso dedicava pra mim!!!
Boy, nunca te esqueci, você esteve no meu pensamento a minha vida toda como uma doce lembrança de uma época linda que infelizmente não volta mais.
This song conveys a … This song conveys a feeling of extremly vailed sadness. But, gives one the feeling that they will be fine going on- an almost safe feeling. Only song I know that does this to me.
Speaking of … Speaking of Googling…Google the movie “Two-Lane Blacktop” …My dad was in this movie with JT, and Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys. And, Mr.S, JT …IS a gentle soul. The music is awesome and sooths the soul. If you don’t think so, I’m sure there is somebody else on here that is to your liking. Just saying…
And his drug habbit … And his drug habbit,s and the suicide of his friens Suzanne in that time which his friends kept from him for some time and the loss of his band “flying machine”3 parts in the song you can find an interview with mr Taylor about this song, search for Top 2000 A Gogo -James Taylor
hahaha just because … hahaha just because this song and his appearence is gentle doesn’t mean he is. He could be a irrate drunken neglectful father, but if you can play fire and rain he is a gentle man. Your should hearing “Impression” by Coltrane because this video has given you one.
Today was the first … Today was the first time I heard him sing. Tomorrow, and all the other days to come, I will listen to him and find peace.
Thank you James Taylor.
