James Taylor is one of the most original and copied acoustic guitar players ever. His songs sound easy, but they're deceptively challenging for most guitarists. Many players try for years and never quite master the subtleties of JT's "one-man band" guitar style.
So...where is the BEST place to learn JT songs the RIGHT WAY? In this video, I share a little-known secret...where you can access the DEFINITIVE James Taylor guitar lessons. Best of all, they're FREE.
Whether you're a budding guitar player or a seasoned pro, these lessons will teach you how an innovative master works his magic, and they'll make you a better player in the process.

Brilliant, Robert; this is a HUGE helping hand for so many of us who have tried but not nailed JT's style - thank you 👍

I'm glad you appreciate it, too. Fascinating to see JT's technique so close-up. FYI - Here's my "What JT Taught Me" video if you want to explore more songs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3e3mY2fpb5geLssi=eEXH0Emeyc1FtDVR

YT is the greatest thing to happen for those of us "figuring out" music by ear. But, when I experienced a PRIVATE lesson from JT I was given a priceless gift. Details and repetition available 24/7/365/infinity. JT has defined the FREE in FREEDOM!!!

Thanks, Doug. How did you have a private lesson? FYI - here's my other video about what I learned from JT: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3e3mY2fpb5geLs

@@RobertCassard I consider a lesson directly from JT, even as a video, PRIVATE. How much better can it get than to have the master himself explain and demonstrate and do it for zero compensation.

Thanks so much Robert for your insightful takes and informed destruction of many of the most influential and innovative groups and individuals of all time. I only discovered your channel two days ago but since then have watched almost thirty of your clips. Your analysis of songs, your musical skill and incredible passion are obvious and I thank you for your insights. G'day from Australia!

Cool to see how JT “reverses” the fingering for A and D chords to make the hammer-ons more precise

I was born in 1964......I have 3 older sisters................Carole King Albums and James Taylor on a huge 4 foot stereo piece of furniture.......Don't mention Bobby Sherman and The Partridge Family.............. Keith singing,I Think I love You...Point Me In The Direction Of Alburquerque...Secret crush on Shirley. The other half of was Mom and Dads Sing Along With Mitch Records..............Luckily at 10 I discovered The Beatles Red and Blue albums and took me on a journey of 50 years of guitars.....Good Wishes.....Or doomed to Mitch Miller records.

My love and the enjoyment of all music and bands goes well beyond being a Beatlemaniac and collecting guitars....Films an literature....Not a day goes by and I think of Harry Chapin..Cats's In The Cradle....Sums up my relationship with my Dad...Running cross country with long hair and side burns...Red Bandana..........Dad...John get a haircut.
