My Sunday Select
“You Can Close Your Eyes” by James Taylor
Not a very known song by James but such a beautiful tune…some stand outs for me:
-the smoothness of his voice
-guitar and vocals is hard to pull off and he’s made himself a legend at doing it
-he has hair…a lot of it…and a sweet mustache
-Vocal riff at 1:51
-he messes up at the end but covers it SO WELL
Listening James Taylor is what made me want to play guitar and sing when I was 13. His music is comfort to me and always takes me to a really cool time of my life when I began to not just listen to music through my ears but I began to feel it as it sank deep into the fibers of my soul.
Happy Sunday,
nate

Nate, Only a musician such as yourself would have the ability to notice the “mess up” at the end. I listened for it and I think I heard him play the same chord progression twice, but his expression really said it. So amazing to see this recording live, when he was so young. But after 40 years his voice is still so smooth. I love JT and always will. Thanks for sharing this precious video.
