The Artisan News Service posted earlier this week a video segment that includes a brief interview with James Taylor on the red carpet to the MusiCares Person of the Year gala celebrating Paul McCartney. He mentions his new album, currently in production. The video also includes the first public video footage of James performing “Yesterday” at the event.
Somewhat more informally, the James Taylor YouTube channel and Facebook page recently posted a video of James tapping red maple trees for maple syrup around his home in the Berkshires. He was smart to wear boots to walk through that mud.
