5.0 out of 5 stars Essential, August 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: James Taylor - Squibnocket [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Although the 3 extant James Taylor videos each have their own strengths, this is the one which seems to me to have no weaknesses. It is the one which will give you a real sense of how excellent his backup singers are. It is the one which shows his rapport with the late Don Grolnick. It is the one where he attains a level of seriousness which the pacing of a live show simply doesn't seem to allow. It is the one where (thru false starts and spoken commentary) you can appreciate how much work really goes into the arrangements of the songs. And, owning all 3, it remains the one which I feel like watching most often.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb recording; beautiful setting; as good as it gets!, August 3, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: James Taylor - Squibnocket [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you haven't heard 'Squibnocket' yet, then you are in for a huge treat. Honestly, in all the years that I have listened to JT's work, never have I seen and heard anything quite as intimate and exceptional as this. It is a gentle treat for the eye as well as an excellent audiophile-level recording, and a definitive look at why his music can be so trancendental emotionally...it embodies lighthearted comraderie, professional tour preparations, beautiful instruction for any aspiring musician-keyboards, bass, guitar, percussion, vocals- consummate musicianship, and glimpses of JT's life and thoughts delivered on camera by him, without any hype or overkill......it is no less than the most intimate glimpse into this wonderful artist's life that most of us will ever get. Take advantage of the opportunity, because I don't know how it could get any better. Pray that they release it in DVD. This incredible recording deserves to be listened to upon the BEST A/V system you can find....if you don't have one, run with this tape to someone who does! Jack Stoehr-1999

....maybe because that's where James is. This video is an intimate look at James Taylor at his most relaxed; and James Taylor at his most relaxed is JT at his best! It is a trip into his living room to share songs and stories as the sun goes down. Highly entertaining. You'll feel like you know him a little better.
