Who else is a fan?

Nice, comforting voice, but I tend to loathe his fans, who truly are oatmeal personified.

Consider me NOT a fan.

No more questions.

Love him. Saw him live with Carole King about 5 years ago and they both still had it. Plus, young James was a hottie.

I was. Until I wasn't. Never wanted to suck his cock.

In 1971 all guys wanted to look like him.

Such a beautiful young man. But he always had the crazy eyes.

R6 - Hell yes. Man of us still do today - except for his hair, or lack there of.

Did he fuck Carole back in the day?

by Anonymousreply 9April 22, 2018 6:30 PM

R7, I'd call his eyes soulful, not crazy. Just MHO.

He was just friends with Carole, according to the Girls Like Us book. I think he was with Joni back then, they both sang backup on the Tapestry LP while Joni was recording Blue.

His brother, Livingston, was quite talented too.

He clearly came from the any hair is better than no hair generation. I dig it.

I love the story of James telling Carly not to go into the house but to use the port-a-pottie outside when she attended a party for one of their kids.

Dude has a voice like Valium.

Saw James and Carole at their 2 night stand gig at the Troubadour in 2007. Pretty amazing. Taking turns, playing, telling stories.

I regret giving my mother my ticket to that tour.

Apropos of nothing, r21, I just googled Carly+Simon+incest. Result 3? Numerous DL threads.

by Anonymousreply 22April 24, 2018 2:00 PM

I don't believe the incest, but after reading Carly's memoir...she really is still obsessed with James and their relationship to an unhealthy degree, and she probably poured some of that into their kids, since he won't talk to her.

Like much of his music.

He was sex personified in his younger days.

But he was an asshole to many of the women in his life. *sad trombone sound*

James Taylor once walked into a restaurant at which I served and I thought he was a derelict. And he did have the craziest eyes.

I’m sure Carole would have jumped on top of that and rode him until Kingdom Come.

I should be since I work for UNC and love Chapel Hill dearly, but... I’ve heard “Going to Carolina” one too many times.

Hot guy back in 1971. Livingston, too.

Just never hear anything good about him, aside from his endowment.
