JAMES TAYLOR FIRE AND RAIN by buddy

PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

I had previously uploaded this tune for review and Neil game me some great advice on how to improve it. My main focus on this version was to slow it down a bit and let the words and music sit a while. Any comments or suggestion are always appreciated to help move it along.

Very solid playing, Bud. Good job. Sounds very James Taylorish.

I really can't add anything to this as I thought your playing was very 'in the style of James Taylor,' as has already been mentioned previously. The advice from Neil has obviously paid off.

Great vocals as always.

Great progress Buddy... and the combination of your beautiful guitar, your voice (perfect for this song) and your recording set-up really adds up! Killer!

Buddy, this was superbly performed and well-felt.

Throughout all of your great uploads, some of us have commented that your voice
might sometimes be overpowering in relation to certain songs (you have good pipes).

It seems to me that your last few (more than few?) videos have much better balance in that aspect.
Maybe we have gotten used to it, but I think it's worthy of note that you have worked on that part of your performance.

This rendition of Fire and Rain, in particular, has great vocal-musical balance. Just the right vocal "push". Fine stuff !
