Summary: By James Taylor but Not Original
Comment: I bought this as a replacement to my original. I was so disappointed that after the 3rd time trying to get used to it I threw it into the back seat.
Don't get me wrong, I really like his music. But I'm really stuck on the original versions and I believe I'm getting ripped off when what's on the disk isn't what I expected. They should have put on the cover that the songs were all remakes or refected tracks or whatever.

Summary: What were you doing when you first heard his songs?
Comment: They were my parents albums and my girlfriends and I would put them on when we got home from school. It was always sunny out--this was Southern California, the years of endless draught. We'd take off our flip flops and sing along word for word. My parents had these wooden sticks that you'd clack together to make "music." We used them for microphones, belting it out as loudly as we could.
Sometimes we'd do homework, our books spread about the floor in front of the fireplace. We'd sing quietly, working on math, then belt it out again at the chorus. When my parents came home, they'd come in the living room and my mother would sing harmony. My dad couldn't sing. But he'd take our "microphones" away and clack them together keeping the beat and bouncing his head like a bobble-head toy.
These songs make me feel all that again. The security of people you love, the warmth of friendship. The joy of singing as loudly as you can.

Summary: Great Material Ruined by Excess Compression
Comment: this cd has almost everything you could want from a J.T. best of, however the sound is extremely loud...almost unplayable, if you spin it for longer than 20 minutes, you will have a headache and frayed nerves....I had to get rid of mine for that reason; also, the swearing in "steamroller blues" is edited, what the hell for? You may be best served by the original greatest hits cd, while that one cuts off at 1976, thus omitting the Columbia hits, the sound is fantastic, and "steamroller" is unedited...that's, in fact, what I did
