Your song made me feel as if I were walking past this sad man's broken, tattered life. I don't think I've ever listened to one of your songs without feeling deeply moved.
Bali Hi, at 6th and Broadway
Just a little place where people go

Listen to the band and think.

James Michael Taylor A true classic. Deceptively simple, yet so many feelings in there: angst, loneliness, and hope, all rolled into one. Davis When I wrote this, 50 years ago, I was afraid it would seem like nothing happened. Thank you for being able to read between the lines.

This song contains the body of the first song I ever wrote. A poem sent to me while I was away to school in Idaho in 1959 by Carolyn Opitz that I sat at an old pump organ and sang a thousand times when I was a junior in high school.
YOU CAN…

My mom’s dad was a coal miner. Her mother died of TB when she was a kid. When she was twelve, her dad, dying of black lung, slit his throat with a butcher knife. That left her with a cripple little brother to take care of…
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
I'm on my second listen. It's very interesting but totally unexpected. Something about it is very facinating. It might be the driving rhythmn.
Dig!
I love your delivery, it has great rhythm too.
Such a good song in a short time! You finished it up beautifully JM.
The pumping in the background gives this such an edge. Most effective!
Yeah, drive on! Like the road from Houston to Fort Worth.
This one is atmospheric! What are you up to, exactly? Wonderful!
So we have travelled on and are now in the bar for some thirst quenching!
Definite native american indian feel! Lovely composition!
Well this is a prelude to something!
Like a prayer
pow-wow time
nice, like the barren-ness
Nice little ditties JMT. Been reading Ginsberg?
He howled in the night That someone was listening, He howled whole night That someone was. He howled all night And the moon Came out~
I just got a new Vespa, riding on it since yesterday, jo! This Drive fits O.K. :-)
Yeah! One of your long, straight roads, top down, sun shining!
Super native american flavoured track. Sounds good through the headphones especially.
Great track mate.
That's pretty darn good, especially for the situation you described. It's really fun that you caught it on tape.

Cheri Chandler Lovely sad song
Robert Hayden Amazing collection of like minded thoughts. Very well structured & synched to a Havana like beat. Well done sir
Cheri Chandler Lovely sad song
Good to hear the gang...after so long.
So, bright and clear...and, here in Cowtown, chilly. Good hearing your voice again.
Cheri Chandler James Michael Taylor that's so very sadly moving. A beautiful heart like yours to have remained locked away for so many years....
James Buchanan Sounds kinda Jimmy Dean or Tennessee Ernie.
Jess Edwards Great tune - catchy, upbeat, happy… Thank you
Terry Colquitt Love it! Bravo!
Sherra Leh Interestingly, I think if you were to re-release that album, it would do really well.

Damien Carroll Recorded in 1976? Sounds so fresh. Love the sentiment. I hear touches of Willie Nelson.
Keith Haas That was a cheap wine was it not? I think they were sipping 7 Up.
James Buchanan Almost Jim Croce

Wow! Starts of so light and carefree. Then pow to rock lead guitar breaks the tranquility. Contrast. Js Bchard.
David Young That’s the album that got me started loving your music! I used to listen to it often on my drive to work and back.
