James Taylor Cover Album - A Top Story This Week

08/05/2008
.
James Taylor Cover Album was a top story for this week. Here it is again: (PR) Hear Music announced today that it will release James Taylor's exceptional collection of covers from notable recording artists from the fifties, sixties and seventies. The album is aptly titled 'Covers' and will be available at all traditional retail outlets and Starbucks Company-operated locations in the U.S. and Canada on September 30.

"An album of other peoples' music is something I've been wanting to do for years," says Taylor. "I've enjoyed performing these songs over the years but to record them live in a room with these incredible musicians was just extraordinary."

The album was recorded last January when James Taylor gathered his 'Band of Legends' for a rare 10-day recording session in a converted barn on his property in western Massachusetts. Band arrangements of material featured on the album include covers of Big Mama Thornton's version of "Hound Dog," Junior Walker's "(I'm A) Road Runner" and "Wichita Lineman," (one of the most revered country songs penned by Jimmy Webb). These songs were improvised on the spot and recorded live with some of the best players in popular music. - more on this story
