It takes an extraordinary artist to re-imagine some of the most beloved songs of the 20th century and make them completely their own. And that is precisely what James Taylor has accomplished with his new album, 'American Standard.' James breathes new sounds and new meaning into these timeless works of art. These are 14 carefully chosen interpretations, which naturally showcase James' warm and unique vocal ability and incomparable musicality.
This collection is so unique, it is the inventive way James and his fellow co-producers, long-time collaborator Dave O'Donnell and renowned musician John Pizzarelli approached the project. Unlike most who have tackled similar subjects, American Standard's simple and elegant arrangements are based on James' acoustic guitar talent rather than the piano, and the effect is hypnotic.
