Ever since I've joined this site, I've read anti-James Taylor postings. Why? I haven't heard any of his new stuff, but I liked what he did on his first album or two; both his writing and his singing. And his guitar playing.

His brother Livingston's first album was also exceptional, although I haven't heard anything newer than that.

The other brother, Alexis, was more electrified. I think he may have died. Anyone know?

And the sister, Kate...I've never heard her music. Pretty musical family though.

But I can't figure what James Taylor seems so disliked on the 'Cat. Is it simply jealousy? Or is he too commercial? Like I said, I haven't heard the new stuff -- is that what isn't liked? Fill me in, here, ok?
