James Taylor's "One Man Band," a new CD/DVD set of live recordings and the stories behind the songs. The set list is drawn from Taylor's recent concerts at the Colonial Theatre in the Berkshires and features new performances from some of the iconic singer/songwriter's most beloved recordings including "Something in the Way," "Carolina in my Mind," and "Fire and Rain," interspersed with Taylor's insightful and humorous anecdotes on the inspiration for the songs.
For the DVD portion of "One Man Band," Taylor called on veteran television events producer and director Don Mischer ("Kennedy Center Honors," and "Super Bowl XLI Halftime Show with Prince") and executive producer and acclaimed filmmaker Sydney Pollack ("Out of Africa," "Sketches of Frank Gehry") and their extensive talents to properly capture the feel of the live concerts. "One Man Band" tells the story of Taylor's songs through exclusive interviews and rare multi-media footage, including home movies and photographs from Taylor's personal archives. The result is an extraordinary, one-of-a-kind portrait of an artist, his renowned repertoire and the personal stories behind the songs.
Over the course of his career, James Taylor has sold over 40 million albums, and won over 40 gold, platinum and multi-platinum awards as well as five GRAMMY® Awards. Taylor's first "Greatest Hits" album earned him the RIAA's elite Diamond Award, given for sales in excess of 10 million units in the United States. In 2000, Taylor was inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame. In February 2006, The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences named Taylor its MUSICARES Person of the Year.

One Man Band [CD + DVD] Review |
|
James Taylor is one of the definative singer/songwriters around and has created so much memorable music that he is really a legend at this point. This set provides us insight to the legend.
He provides a steller live concert with variations on his songs that breath a different light into them and shows his creativity. For someone who wants a selection of his songs as they are well known another collection would be something that they should look for - a Greatest Hits. But if you have an interest in the creative aspect of music, want a good live recording or are a fan of his music, the is a must to have. |

EXTRAORDINARY - James Taylor performs and describes the creative process for his songs - |
One Man Band [CD + DVD] Review |
|
What a great presentation James Taylor developed for this concert. He has a small slide show or discussion before each song explaining where he was and what influences were in his life when the song was written and then he performs the song. This concert is James with a subdued pianist rather than a string instrument so it is less melodramatic presentation than others. The auditorium is an grand old concert hall that seemed perfect for this concert. His discussions to the audience are laced with humor and wit helping you get to know more about the artist that you ever could just listening to song after song like a lifeless concert. I learned that James Taylor was the first act signed-on to the Apple label by the Beatles! Whoever rated this 2 or 3 stars missed the entire point of a live concert and should stick to listening to CDs for their entertainment. We were thrilled that so many of his famous songs were included. I cannot imagine any James Taylor (or live music fan) not rating this presentation a solid 5. Beautiful music performed by the original artist in a unique and wonderful presentation. Even the "out-takes" included on the DVD were entertaining. We'll be re-watching this one a couple of times every year. |

Great Show! - |
One Man Band [CD + DVD] Review |
|
Very nice show with beautiful singing from James Taylor. The musical arrangements are priceless and worth every note. You may have to endure a few nutty liberal/political statements from Mr. Taylor, but they are only a few seconds long so don't despair. James Taylor has aged, but it is truly amazing how his voice has only gotten better, as well as his beautiful guitar work. If you like James Taylor you will love this DVD/CD. If you love pretty songs like those of Dan Fogelberg, John Denver, Jim Croce, etc., you will also enjoy this offering. I give this show my highest rating and most enthusiastic recommendation. |

I like some tracks better than their original recordings - |
One Man Band [CD + DVD] Review |
|
I have most of JT's albums, and I love them. When I listened to this album, I was nearly moved to tears by this album's recordings of "Never Die Young", "My Traveling Star", "Copperline", and "You Can Close Your Eyes". These arrangements with only guitar and piano have a much more intimate feeling than the original recordings with a full band. Wish I would have seen this show live. |

A classic James Taylor you must own. If my wife doesn't get her James Taylor fix daily, she gets grumpy. |
