James Taylor Quartet, The

Real Name:
James Taylor, David Taylor, Alan Crockford, Simon Howard
Profile:
The lineup of the JTQ has changed over the years. The Real Name field shows the original four members.
Emerging from the demise of Prisoners, The following the bankruptcy of Stiff Records, James Taylor formed The James Taylor Quartet.
Embracing many styles from mod rock, funk, acid jazz and 70s detective series theme tunes, the JTQ sound has always been firmly anchored on James Taylor's hammond organ skills.
