If you think my music is sentimental and self-absorbed, I agree with you. – James Taylor
Im very unstable theres no stability in a musicians life at all. You live on a bus or on the road hand to mouth and you dont know where your moneys coming from. – James Taylor
Performing is a profound experience, at least for me. Its not as if I sit down and play Fire and Rain by myself, just to hear it again. But to offer it up… the energy that it somehow summons live takes me right back, and I do get a reconnection to the emotions. – James Taylor
I know there are people who dont like their audience or like the experience of being recognized or celebrated, but my audience has been very good – they dont bother me and when they do contact me its usually on the nicest possible terms. – James Taylor
