Ever wonder what goes into making an album? Here’s an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of October Road, taken from the Pull Over concert DVD. youtu.be/4as3w2f6V54

There are very few songs as universally known as @Carole_King's "You've Got a Friend." Here's James performing it solo and acoustic on the French TV show @Taratata in October 1993 – just him and his guitar.

After a September spent mostly on the road, this one's a reminder that there's no place like home.

Few songs have stayed with audiences the way "Secret O' Life" has. Here's James playing it at the @NiceJazzFest in France, 1999: youtu.be/Q94MfxUtcWk

RE: “Millworker” | James Taylor
standardsmichigan.com/millworker-jam…
“Millworker” belongs to a subtler tradition of labor music. There is no strike, no marching line, and scarcely a villain, as there were in much rial laments. Her hands remain at the machine while her mind wanders backward through family, farm, and memory. The injury is monotony, lost possibility, and time—the lot of a “young girl who ought to stand a better chance.”
@HarvardBiz @JamesTaylor_com

Beyond the songs everyone comes to hear, the deeper catalog told the story. @JamesTaylor_com used recovery, memory, humor, and unexpected song choices to shape the first night of his three-show run @Wolf_Trap.

A rare day off, drifting on a river in Montana. Enjoying a little catch & release fly fishing before the tour starts up again at @Wolf_Trap on Aug 30!

James playing "Steamroller Blues" at @nicejazzfest, France, 1999. Did you know he originally wrote it as a parody? youtu.be/uNiV7iEdFlM

James & band have just wrapped up the European leg of this year's tour, and the venues were incredible! From an 11th-century castle to an 18th-century cloth hall, each was memorable. Thanks to all who came out!
