Reviews
Every single freakin' track is a winner. I swear, what an amazing selection of James Taylor's best work, assembled on this album.
I grabbed a near mint copy for $3. Score!
The sound is amazing, very realistic, and pressing is great. Recommended.- Great master! Sounds crisp and clear. Miss few of my favorite tracks but overall good introduction to James Taylor catalog.
actually the worst cover art of all time no joke
