I am currently working on a Concept album with a good friend of mine and great musician/ guitarist Chuck D. Although this track does not feature Chuck , it was developed based on the chord progression he came up with which opens the song up. We…

Hello I'm Taylor and this is my first single. I wrote this back in 2011 without intention of releasing it, but after my best friend committed suicide in February of 2012, I decided to release it and dedicate it to him. So this is for you, David.

A song for a man that has played to thousands who passed him in church street whilst he busked with all his heart.
This song is to pay tribute to a man that inspired me to play Live. I even had…

Comments on JR James's stuff
I like this version better than Arrival ...
Hey James ... another great track ...sounds progressive ...thank you for your feedback on my song! ...It's so hard to get your music out there ...
digging the off-rhythms juxtaposition with the lead
Pretty cool ...better voice than Hendrix and Dylan ....great guitar also
Ahh Yes.
Good one James, more nerve than me, and a damn better player.
One of my favourite songs, nice one!

James, why so many versions? I'm not complaining; they're all very good listening.
Another fine version lol!
..those eight fingers on your left hand come in useful, don't they, James? ...awestruck..
Great track! Play it, James!
This just keeps getting better & better! What a brilliant track! w;-)
Elements reminiscent of Zawinul, Mahavishnu, and Santana all merged into something else. NIce.
Awesome.
Fantastic tone on the guitar!
Oh yeah, another fine version.
James , Loved the Guitar melody. the reverb was a bit over ! Wow super tone! great slide and bend control. Nicely done. Faved
Totally loving this! w;-)

Holy Moses...Incredible!
Very nice tribute.
Good track here. Diggin it.
I like it....cool take on it.
Lead master! Nice playin!
Solid track!
Great track...one of the best I have heard yet! Superb!
Right off the bat you know its great. Fabulous. A special.musician right here.
Nice biting soloing man! You on FIRE!
Cruisin a hog with a babe on the back . Thats what I am feelin here.
With a milk chaser....like that solo tone in there. Nice playin!
Hell yeah....always slammin the blues. Feel like I am in a texas roadhouse.
Really dig what you did here. Totally captured it.
Vocals sound like Phil Lynott on this one. Without the drums the guitars create a chaotic setting. Cool approach.
Reminds me a bit of Beck. Especially your vocal. Outside the box approach intrigues me here.
Alot of blues in these song. Add it to the list of goodies. :)
That is so cool. Nice songwriting. Would I be correct in saying you wrote this in like a stream of consciousness approach? A very warm song . Lovely.
Thats pretty inventive. Almost sounds like a koto sometimes. The section at 2:50 sounds very Jimmy Page-ish.
Has a old Ziggy Stardust feel. Those cool Mick Ronson like double guitars and dark lead tone.
Holy shit! Its Louis Armstrong! Belting it out right out the gate. Heavy Low Down Blues. Neat track!
