Before he signed to Apple, James Taylor recorded an album with his band, The Flying Machine, which also featured Danny Kortchmar. Most of the songs from that album are included here, along with his cover of Buddy Holly's 'Everyday'.

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid this CD!, February 1, 2005

Beware! If you're buying this CD to hear the three "rare" tracks (Everyday, The Letter and You're the One I Love) that don't appear on any other JT release, please note that these are NOT performed by James Taylor! The song Everyday is NOT JT's cover of the Buddy Holly tune, it is a different song, and these 3 tunes are performed by an unknown (mediocre) singer whom I cannot identify at all. The remaining 6 tracks can be found on the "Original Flying Machine" CD, rendering this CD release completely useless.

While visiting a store in British Columbia, I came across a JT album that I had never seen. I was so excited to think that I had run across some rare or unreleased songs by one of my favorite artists! The title of the CD I purchased is The Letter, but it has the exact same song list as Listen With James. I agree wholeheartedly with the previous reviewer who says to AVOID buying this CD. When the first song came on, I thought that there must be some mistake. By the time I had heard three songs, I was mad. The first three songs on this album are definitely NOT SUNG BY JAMES TAYLOR! This album was produced by Prestige Elite Records Ltd out of Holland in 2005 and distributed by United Audio Entertainment Ltd. It shows a modern-day photo of JT and the entire packaging is deceiving. How can they get away with this type of misrepresentation?

4.0 out of 5 stars Kootch and James, February 9, 2007

I knew there was something odd about this CD when I first listened to it. It wasn't until I had a conversation with my husband who definitely recognized James' guitar playing that I realized what was going on. I was really excited to learn that it was Kootch who was singing on the album and anyone who knows about James Taylor's beginnings and his relationship with Kootch would be excited too.
