Saturday, November 14, 11:00 pm on HDACL 41 welcomes the legendary James Taylor
 


photo by Scott Newton Austin City Limits presents a Season 41 highlight: the first-ever appearance of legendary singer-songwriter James Taylor
in a heartwarming, hourlong performance. The musical icon shines in a
career-spanning set that features beloved classics and selections from
his chart-topping, acclaimed new album Before This World, his first collection of original music in 13 years.  
As one of the best-selling
singer-songwriters of all time, James Taylor’s warm baritone is among
the most recognized voices in popular music. A masterful lyricist and
celebrated performer, Taylor sings songs of
love, family, recovery and everyday passions that resonate with
listeners worldwide. “Finally on ACL — this is great,” says the
personable musician, grinning throughout. He delights the ACL audience
with a hit-laden 12-song set featuring vintage favorites such as his first #1 single, 1971’s “You’ve Got A Friend,” and new originals from Before This World, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200.

Taylor switches midset from acoustic
to electric guitar for the slow-burn blues number “Steamroller” from his
landmark 1970 album Sweet Baby James, giving
his star-filled 10-piece band a chance to showcase their bona fides. He
brings out Austin’s own Shawn Colvin for a beautiful duet version of
“You Can Close Your Eyes” from his 1971 album Mudslide Slim.
The ecstatic crowd is on its feet for the set-closing gems “Your
Smiling Face,” and “How Sweet It Is,” with Taylor so energized he tips
his trademark cap in response to the repeated ovations and powerful
applause, singing “How sweet it is to be in Austin City tonight.”

“Finally! How sweet it is indeed,”
says ACL executive producer Terry Lickona. “There is nobody quite like
James Taylor, and he is one of the most genuine persons and artists on
the planet. He is universally loved and applauded, and it was inspiring
to see fans from across the generations react so emotionally to his
presence on the ACL stage.” 4951
