A collection of exquisite covers performed with his close friends, \"Band of Legends.\" \"I've wanted to make a cover album for many years. I've sung these songs many times live, but being able to record them live in a studio with such wonderful musicians was the best thing of all.\" - James Taylor - In 2007, following in the footsteps of Paul McCartney and Joni Mitchell, James Taylor made a surprise signing with Hear Music. His CD+DVD live best-of album, \"One Man Band,\" was also well-received. Now, his second album since the move is here! In this album, he has picked out his favorite numbers that he has performed live but has never recorded before. All of them are songs by famous artists representing the 50s, 60s, and 70s. In addition to American classic rock like \"Hound Dog\" and \"Summertime Blues,\" the album features Taylor's signature selection of songs that will impress even connoisseurs, including Junior Walker's \"Road Runner,\" Leonard Cohen's \"Suzanne,\" and Jimmy Webb's country song \"Wichita Lineman.\" Recorded in January 2008 at Taylor's personal studio, a converted barn in Washington, D.C., the album features a large 12-piece band, \"Band of Legends.\" It's a heartwarming performance with friends who have supported Taylor's career, such as Steve Gadd, Michael Landau, and Larry Goldings. Classical cellist Yo-Yo Ma makes a guest appearance on one track.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TOKYO JAPAN CD SHOP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53228968116533,"sku":"4988005532817","price":4100.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/5966\/5973\/files\/41IBqL6iN1L._AC.jpg?v=1785407411","url":"https:\/\/tokyojapancdshop.com\/products\/4988005532817","provider":"TOKYO JAPAN CD SHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
