About this item
Personnel: James Taylor (vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, piano); Danny Kortchmar (electric guitar, congas); John Hartford (banjo); Richard Greene (fiddle); Kevin Kelly (accordion); Andrew Love (saxophone); Wayne Jackson (trumpet); Carole King (piano, background vocals); Leland Sklar (bass instrument); Russ Kunkel (drums); Peter Asher (tambourine, background vocals); Joni Mitchell, Kate Taylor, Gale Harness (background vocals). Recording information: Crystal Studios, Hollywood, California (01/03/1971 - 02/28/1971). For the follow up to his classic SWEET BABY JAMES, which rivals TAPESTRY's place in the boomer canon, archetypal sensitive singer-songwriter Taylor wisely elected not to stray too far from the approach that had worked so well on his previous album. He covers another Carole King tune ("You've Got A Friend,") perfects the L. A. folk-rock sound he inaugurated on his earlier work, courtesy of studio hotshots like Russ Kunkel, Danny Kootch and Leland Sklar, whose names are virtually synonymous with Taylor's '70s work. One of the most memorable tunes here, "Hey Mister That's Me Up On the Jukebox" is one of the more effective songs to bemoan the plight of the lonely balladeer, evidence that Taylor mined the introspective troubadour style long before it became a mawkish sham. In other words, don't blame the father for the sins of the wayward sons. What the critics say. . . Rolling Stone (6/24/71, p. 42) - ". . . MUD SLIDE SLIM broods about James Taylor, songster and runaway phenomenon, and expresses his ambivalence and impotence in the face of it all. . . " Rolling Stone (9/30/71, p. 42) - ". . . it is a natural progression past SWEET BABY JAMES. James Taylor's emotional power derives precisely from his restraint, the absence of any form of affectation or pretension. . . - Mud Slide Slim & The Blue Horizon by James Taylor
