A evening with James taylor
James Taylor's album In The Pocket, released in spring of 1976, sealed his popularity by continuing the qualities that have made his music admired more than any other modern troubadour. Its subtle, soft tones, like "Daddy's All Gone," contrasted by it's energetic "Money Machine," keep his old fans as well as his new on a wonderful rollercoaster of emotion. One of these songs will touch any mood you might be in.James has been around since his 1970's Sweet Baby James, featuring the hit "Fire and Rain." Soon after that, in 1971, he was on the cover of Time Magazine. He had hit it big early in his professional career on Apple records. He hit big again that year with Mud Slide Slim and The Blue Horizon, that contained Carole King's "You've got a Friend."
Like most of Taylor's music, this album isn't a good one to work out to. But if you just want to relax and soak yourself in emotional lyrics, then this is a fantastic choice. It is also a good album to put on with someone special, show that person you aren't as shallow as people say. Some people will say that James Taylor's music is repetitive, because his music is always classified "soft rock" or always "in the same key." True, James's music never gets head banging hard, or techo dancey but if you love his soft, easy to indentify with music, you won't care. Taylor, after all that success, doesn't lose a step with In the Pocket. It contains beautiful songs and future hits like "Shower the People" and "Slow Burning Love." Other stars of folk rock at that time also lend a vocal hand, like Art Garfunke
