"Top 40" Hit

His first international hit
was "Fire and Rain," written
about his girlfriend. "Top 40"
stations adopted it and played
it out.

He now has a total of five
albums, One Man Dog being his
latest. From One Man Dog
came another song in his
characteristic style, "Don't Let
Me Be Lonely Tonight", which
quickly became a hit.

With a fine, musically-accomplished
back-up band,
Taylor's concert performances
are very satisfying for both
lovers of rock and
mood-melodies. Tomorrow
night "Sweet James" promises
a good show.
