Last night we went to the James Taylor/Carole King (or is it Carole King/James Taylor) Troubadour reunion concert at the St. Pete Times Forum. What an exceptional concert. Taylor and King pretty much took turns singing some of their songs, and while the one was the lead, the other was support with instrument (piano or guitar) and backup vocals. So exciting, so vibrant, so filled with energy.
I think my favorite aspects of the evening, though, were those songs by Taylor when he just sat down, played the guitar, and sang such songs as Fire and Rain, or the duets such as You've Got a Friend. Both of the entertainers were great. Carole King seems more at home with the concert venue. While Taylor is also at home with that style, it appears he would just as soon be sitting with some friends in the living room, playing the guitar and singing.
Great concert.
