A Taste Of Cherry
Real Self Records
ROCK
James Taylor is best known as leader of the James Taylor Quartet (JTQ), where his trademark funky Hammond vibe is featured to fine effect. JTQ’s fired-up signature tune, The Theme from Starsky and Hutch, cemented the band’s reputation as masters of the jazz-funk r’n’b workout; 60s spy themes, psychedelic and free-form jazz all added something to the band’s distinctive sound.
Originally playing the Hammond B3 organ in the UK mod revival band The Prisoners, James Taylor formed his own quartet in 1985, and began playing music similar to the rare-groove jazz-funk then in vogue around London., JTQ returned to Acid Jazz, and “In The Hand of The Inevitable” remains the label’s biggest selling album to date. The latest JTQ album, “A Taste of Cherry”, was released in September last year.
