I have always loved James Taylor. My dad always plays and sometimes hums or sings them.my favorite is something in the way she moves and you've got a friend. Something in the way she moves makes me remember all of my grandparents which were all dead at my age right now 10yrs😭.there favorite was something in the way she moves. I think I'm the only10yr old boy that has no grandparents anymore. Thank you James taylor you make me feel better and happy.

I really like Fire and Rain because it reminds of myself a lot. So amazing that I can't even describe how lovely this song is. I swear. It Is Beautiful (So is the rest of the album!)

Every song brings back great memories ❤️❤️

My husband of 30+ years used to sing this song to me when we were dating in the late 1970s. It still takes my breath away. Music has the ability to take us to an exact moment in time. Powerful. James Taylor is the real deal - Living Legend. My 13-year-old daughter even gets it! JT is in her iTunes too! Smart girl. TRousselWoods

A beautiful melody and sentiment ; I have always loved this song . Its one of my favorites, and it's one of the few songs I never get tired of hearing .

Super irritated that the live version was replaced with this one. My ears can handle the original, okay? 🤬

❤️

I finally upgraded my scratchy vinyl version of this album and it sounds gorgeous. JT sounds so crisp and clear, but I do wish there was a warning label indicating the PG version of Steamroller is the version on this album. I can handle the F bomb and I can't seem to be able to puchase the original Greatest Hits version of this song without buying another Greatest Hits album containing most of the songs I just bought. Weak tea Apple.

Apple iTunes, You lousy politically correct punks! You replaced the longer and much better with more emotion original version of steamroller blues because, let me guess. He said the curse word MF.

Every song is perfection! No fluff, just great music. A must have for music lovers of all ages.

Was this released before Up On The Roof was created? Or is it just a case of the record company limiting the album to 12 songs?

There isn't much more to say. JT is the singer/songwriter of a generation. He makes more than just music, he constructs art.

Just saying, I agree with Jefef.

This is not only a great album by James Taylor but also an incredible sample of all that he has to offer. I'm young but that doesn't lessen my appreciation for great music from artists like JT. I got this album liking only "Fire and Rain" at first but soon grew to truly admire and love each song for different reasons. What an amazing album this is!

This takes me back to all the good times of my life! Greatest album ever!!!!

We can have scores of Rap Albums with explicit lyrics (big deal)…but YOU have to sanitize JT’s Greatest Hits and replace the live version of Steamroller Blues with the studio version. Really??? At age 67, I think I’m old enough to make my own choices and don’t need you to protect my aging ears.

A song like this only comes along once in a lifetime. - jeff b

greatest time ever for music, peace , love and care for one another and for mother earth;)

He's the music version of Bob Ross

I listened to this album based of the golden oldie appeal of 3 tunes, but now I'd say that JT's greatest hits are not very great. His vocal quality is pleasant enough but other similar artists such as Art Garfunkel, Jim Croce, Carole King and Don McLean have better, more distinctly evocative (non-Best-of) albums. As I don't collect singles, I deleted this album.

One of the few artists who improves with age-like a fine bottle of wine.

Crisp

All of his classic songs, how could you go wrong? I love the use of upright bass on all of James Taylor's songs--also on some newer folk records like Caitlin Marie Bell's "Blood and the Water"

The vinyl LP fans have noticed it already, and the above review claims that "Steamroller" here is LIVE but this CD replaces it with the original 1970 studio version from the "Sweet Baby James" album. Too bad because this was the only album with that explicit rockin' bluesy live version. Docked One Star!

the uneven, inconsistent application of the "explicit" label in the iTunes store irks me. that nit aside: great album!!

This album never gets old.

Beautiful voice & lyrics. Amazing songs!

Taylor’s album, The Greatest Hits of James Taylor is an amazing album, full of superb country music, heartfelt songs, and old James Taylor classics. It is an exceptional example of music that many people greatly enjoy. Some of my favorite songs on the album include “Carolina on My Mind,” a wonderful song about the wonders of North Carolina, and wishing he was there. Another song that I like is “Something in the Way She Moves,” it has a nice country vibe and a pleasing sound. Overall the entire album is wonderful, especially for country and folk fans. I like the soothing songs, James Taylor’s slow crooning, and upbeat country music in this collection. So listen to it and who knows you may become a James Taylor fan.

Love his music. Hear his awesome interview with Howard Stern from May 12, 2015

James Taylor is an excellent songwriter/artist. James Taylor's legacy rates high. He is original and his songs/albums have stood the test of time.

I grew up with my dad singing these songs. He's amazing

There are very few artists that can bridge generations the way James Taylor does. His music is always refreshing to hear...and if you don't at least have this album...you are seriously missing out. My children will listen to James Taylor, their children will listen to James Taylor...his music is timeless!

Im 15 and i love a wide majority of music but none touch me as much as carolina in my mind

I love these old songs and they sound so good when I plug the iPhone into my car! Thanks!

I grew up listening to this *tape* in my mom's two-tone brown Ford Aerostar van. To my knowledge it was the only secular album she owned, and she'd always fast forward at the end when Steamroller came on to start the tape over again at the beginning (apparently Jesus didn't approve of that track). I bought her the CD for Xmas over a decade ago, the tape having long been lost. Now I finally own my own digital version and I cannot wait to sing along.

Iconic album - a must-have by an American treasure

It was so easy to get the song I wanted. Good service.

AWSOME ! His voice & words bring me back to my childhood. Fire & Rain and You've Got A Friend.. This music is timeless ! I wish everyone could experience James Taylor's music. ; )

Great Songs by a wonderful artist

Love Taylor’s music. Wish his song with Steven Colbert was on this CD. Kay Frank

James Taylor was me mentioned in one of Taylor Swift's new songs...so I thought why not check him out? I listened to all of his songs on this album and he's really good!

James Taylor's first album, my 1st also. Great memories & emotions, to enjoy.

Where has real music like gone

Is the greatest sweet soundin guitar player ever! I love jis music

This is the album I grew up on. I know the lyrics and beats to these songs like not many 16 year old girls do these days. Hes a fantastic singer, classic!

This album brings me back to my childhood when my parents were still together. My brothers name is James (a family name) and I remember it as a lullaby that our mom and grandpa would sing to him. Wonderful memories that brought a tear to my eye. <3

These songs bring me back to my childhood. Every year when my family would go on vacation my dad would always play James Taylor. I was surprised to re-listen to all these songs and find i still know all the lyrics by heart! Im probably the only 15 yr old girl with James Taylor on her phone! These songs make me so happy! :)

The song is so happy and relaxing:)

This is great...

This is NOT the original version of “Steamroller” from the LP “Greatest Hits.” It’s the only way JT can be disappointing.

Ohhhhhhhhhh Mexico

But why are you ripping people off at this price agree with other reviewer . I will buy now and download to save

Given that Amazon have this CD at £3.99, sadly it's better to buy and digitise, rather than download. Why does it cost more than double here?

Perfect in each track. Attention to detail is obvious. Try it and see how good it can be!
