James Taylor — JT
album review

LYRICS FROM "TRAFFIC JAM"
Well I left my job about 5 o'clock.
It took fifteen minutes go three blocks—
Just in time to stand in line,
With a freeway looking like a parking lot.
Damn this traffic jam—
How I hate to be late.
It hurts my motor to go so slow—
Damn this traffic jam.
Time I get home, my supper'll be cold—
Damn this traffic jam.   more

Album Review: We've all been there: Cursing, fretting, and sweating over the mess on the road before us. Don't worry, just pop in a CD and relax with James Taylor! This album finds JT with one foot still in his early singer-songwriter mode, with the smooth "Secret O' Life" being a prime example of that style here. His other foot is kicking around covers of songs other people made famous, and on JT the breakout cover was the mega-hit "Handy Man." Other strong songs include the bouncy "Your Smiling Face"; the satirical and empathetic "Traffic Jam"; and the relaxed but heartfelt "Terra Nova." So, stuck in traffic? Fuhget about it! Just listen to this truckload of great songs.
