  13. James Taylor, JT, 1977 on Columbia

    This was Taylor's eighth studio LP and his first on Columbia after years on Warner Bros. It was produced by Peter Asher and recorded in Los Angeles. Danny Kortchmar, Leland Sklar, and Russ Kunkel appear, with guest backing vocals from Linda Rondstadt and his then wife Carly Simon on specific tracks. One of his best selling albums. My copy—via private sale—is a Pitman pressing with a gatefold and inner sleeve.

  14. James Taylor, Mud Slide Slim and The Blue Horizon, 1971 on Warner Bros.

    I always want to call this album Mud Slide Jim, given James Taylor's habit of naming records with his own name. This was his third LP and second Warner Brothers release. Ironically, because discogs uses a "first credited with the name wins" algorithm for artists with shared names, he is forever "James Taylor (2)" on that site. The personnel here include Ross Kunkel, Leland Sklar, Danny Kortchmar, Carole King, and Joni Mitchell - what a set of friends to have. (This is the album with […]

    The prompt is Zoo

    James Taylor,“Knocking 'Round The Zoo”

    Before #JamesTaylor became THAT guy we all know, he formed a band with now well known studio musician #DannyKortchmar and two other fellas. In 1966 the band recorded some demo tracks.

    Knocking 'Round The Zoo paints a sardonic picture of his stay as a psychiatric patient at McLean Hospital, complete with a Nurse Ratched-like figure.

    After The Flying Machine fell apart,
    Taylor went off to England and got signed to #TheBeatles’ new #AppleRecords label, issuing his debut eponymous LP featuring re-recorded versions of Knocking ‘Round the Zoo and several other tracks from those early demos.

    After subsequent hit LPs Sweet Baby James (Fire and Rain) and Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon (You've Got a Friend) the Flying Machine’s recordings were issued as an album credited to James Taylor & The Original Flying Machine.

    I give you both Zoo versions.

  51. James Taylor, One Man Dog, 1972 on Warner Bros.

    This was Taylor’s fourth studio album, with “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight.” 18 tracks means lots of short bits / interludes, some of which can feel a bit unfinished but overall I like the effect.

    Performers include Carly Simon and Carole King on backing vocals, Danny Kortchmar, Leland Sklar, Russ Kunkel, and John McLaughlin (of Mahavishnu Orchestra) on “Someone.”
