James Taylor Flag Pop Music Cd Review
By Clyde Lee Dennis
Very talented Pop artist James Taylor has released him latest CD titled Flag and Wow! It's good.
I wish it weren’t the case but, it’s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Flag. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
Pop fans will recognize some of the well known guests that have been assembled to play along with Taylor on several of the tracks. Artists like Leland Sklar and Danny Kortchmar just to name a couple.
If you're even mildly into Pop you'll enjoy this CD. Overall Flag is an outstanding release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.
While this entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - Johnnie Comes Back, track 6 - Is That The Way You Look?, and track 12 - Sleep Come Free Me
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 10 - Up
