Editorial Review:Amazon.com:James Taylor's mid-'70s departure from Warner Bros. may be one of the best things that ever happened to the label; otherwise, it might not have been in such a rush to compile his
Greatest Hits, one of the company's biggest sellers ever at 11 million and counting. Taylor's style, which all but defines the word diffident, has more backbone than it's often given credit for. Here, as surprisingly complex songs like "Carolina in My Mind" (in a newly recorded version) and "Steamroller" stack up, he sounds like an artist worth spending some time with. At the least, few of his singer-songwriter cohorts came up with a melody as lovely as "Sweet Baby James."

Taylor's laid back songwriting style is somewhat deceiving, as his lyrics often evoke serious ...

After a hard day of school and chores, I either want some speed metal that break a ton of rules or something quiet and soft, that is where James Taylor's Greatest Hits comes in. If you haven't read about this CD, this contains 12 songs (including a live version of "Steamroller".) The best thing about the recording is the best of the best (I fell off my chair when I found out that most of these songs were made in the 70s.) If you want to download by MP3, I think you should start off with my favorite ...
