Description
Revered for his Hammond organ work, soul-jazz grooves, and his three-
decade career leading The James Taylor Quartet, maestro keyboard player
James Taylor releases his first album of classical works.
His long association with Acid Jazz Records continues, as the label also
steps into the classical world for the very first time.
Recorded solo on a Steinway grand piano, Taylor performs some of his
favourite pieces from the classical cannon, with familiar tunes alongside
lesser-known works on this beautiful, atmospheric recording. His
interpretations show a deep love of classical music.
Always one to evolve, just as the James Taylor Quartet introduced Herbie
Hancock to the indie scene of the late ‘80s, Taylor in turn introduces his
audience to a new repertoire, with a remarkable, fresh and modern solo
classical piano album.
Available on LP and CD, presented in a beautiful sleeve, featuring a
painting by Billy Childish, especially for the album.
