Sweet Baby James

I’ve never met anybody who doesn’t like James Taylor. And even at 77 years of age, a sellout crowd suggests that hasn’t changed.

As an early 39th (that’s what she’s been telling me) birthday present for Sandy, I took her to see a James Taylor concert at the NH Pavillion in Gilford, New Hampshire on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee. My family spent a week there when I was a child, creating a real déjà-vu experience. We sailed from Camden to Portland, where we rented a car for the ~2 hour drive. And what a show! The songwriting, guitar playing, singing, and wit of this artist is legendary, and although his voice is showing some signs of age, the concert exceeded our expectations. And I hope that, at 77, I too can jump up and down while playing the outro to Steamroller Blues like James Taylor can! Per Sandy, “JT is ageless and awesome!”
