Recorded in 1977, James Taylor's first album 'JT' for Columbia Records made a huge impact on the hit charts. 'JT' meant a new direction for the folk pop singer as he shows a newly found positive approach to his songwriting material. Gone were his `rainy day man' sensitive croons, in comes this mainstream, sunny easy listening vibe. Taylor mixes his patented acoustic guitar-based folk sound with elements of rock, blues, and country to great effect. Just like the original European pressings, the album is packed in a gatefold sleeve and contains a lyric sheet. Comes on 180 gram vinyl.
