All-star cast assists Taylor in exploring all sides of domestic issues, earning triple-platinum album.

James Taylor's best-selling record since 1970's hallmark Sweet Baby James, 1977's JT takes its permanent place as one of the singer's most enduring albums, an affair that gorges on country, blues and rock styles and incisive songwriting. As the preeminent singer-songwriter's Columbia debut, it catapulted him back into the limelight and reestablished his place as the era's leading-edge folk-rock troubadour.

Incredible reissue by MOFI

Reviewer: Drew
This is really an amazing reissue by Mobile Fidelity. The packaging is great, and the vinyl arrived clean and shiny. It played without so much as a single pop, on both sides, and at a pretty loud listening level. The black background is exceptional, and on an album like JT, it really enhances the performance.

Of course, the performance is incredible as well. This album is one of those special works that has a slew of hits, and also a collection of B-sides that are almost even more enjoyable. "There We Are" is a poignant, bittersweet ballad to his then-wife, Carly Simon. On the other side, "Terra Nova" impresses with it's gentle dynamics, background vocals and exceptional guitar work.

The dead-quiet wax, combined with the clear vocals and articulate guitar style make it sound like James in in your living room with you.

Highly recommended.


Taylor's Masterpiece at its Best

Reviewer: audiofan
Always a great-sounding recording (kudos to the gifted Peter Asher), MoFi has, as per usual, done a fantastic job on 'JT'. The vinyl is totally silent and the mastering is as transparent to the source as I've ever heard - and I wore this record out back in '77. Displays gorgeous tonal detail and sonic placement of instruments in a deep & wide soundstage - everything you've come to expect from MF. This one was well worth the wait.
