James Taylor Warner Bros. Albums 6LP box set

75 tracks include his breakthrough hits "Fire And Rain," "You've Got A Friend" and "Shower The People"

Remastered audio, overseen by Taylor's manager and producer, Peter Asher

Between 1970 and 1976, James Taylor released six albums on Warner Bros. Records. Now Rhino presents a new collection that introduces newly remastered versions of all of those albums. The Complete Warners Bros. Albums: 1970-1976 includes six LPs, bringing several albums back into print on vinyl for the first time in many years.

Each album in the set has been remastered, a process overseen by Peter Asher, who signed Taylor to the Beatles' Apple Records label in 1968, worked as his manager for 25 years, and originally produced several of these albums.

In the collection's liner notes Asher writes: "Revisiting these albums several decades later has been revelatory, nostalgic and exciting. I have heard bits and pieces frequently over the years, of course, but listening with concentration and in detail to each of the original tapes without interruption has been a thrilling luxury."

The Complete Warner Bros. Albums: 1970-1976 includes Sweet Baby James (1970), Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon (1971), One Man Dog (1972), Walking Man (1974), Gorilla (1975) and In the Pocket (1976).The collection is filled with some of Taylor's best known songs, including "Sweet Baby James," "Fire and Rain," "Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight," "Walking Man," "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)," "Mexico," "Shower the People" and Carole King's "You've Got A Friend," the latter which was Taylor's first No. 1 hit and earned him his first Grammy Award (Best Male Pop Vocal) in 1971.

The collection also offers up some deep cuts like his acoustic lullaby "You Can Close Your Eyes" from Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon; the 10-minute song cycle that closes One Dog Man; "Rock 'n' Roll Music Is Now" from Walking Man, which features backing vocals by Paul and Linda McCartney; and "Don't Be Sad 'Cause Your Sun Is Down" from In the Pocket, a song Taylor wrote and recorded with Stevie Wonder.
