Two artists come to my mind.

The first, some consider as America's answer to Gordon Lightfoot. That talented gentleman is none other than James Taylor. From his days recording on 'Apple Records' progressing to his "Sweet Baby James" era, onward to his most recent "October Road", Taylor's talent has captured a legion of loyal fans with his brilliant song writing.

"Now the first of December was covered with snow
And so was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
Lord, the Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go"

Having crossed the height of land on the 'Mass Pike' between Stockbridge and Boston many a time, Those words resonate through my head on each trip and for those miles James owns my soul.

I have had the pleasure of seeing him in concert twice.

The other artist is John Stewart who is incredibly prolific songwriter from days with "The Kingston Trio" to various solo projects extending to this day.

I was introduced to his music years ago through a fellow 'Lighthead'- even prior to this Corfid group. We spent an enjoyable evening several years ago in California sharing Lightfoot tales and trading treasured music from 'our own parts of the world'. Sadly, we have lost touch with each other but I am forever grateful for his adding John Stewart to my musical library. Another artist with an army of rabidly loyal fans! Deservedly so!

I SAY, LIFE BEGINS AT 60!!!

3 things I wanted to share. I saw Kris Kristopherson at the same 4th of July Picnic I mention in the lead post on this topic. I related once before the story of how I will never forget, midnight on July 4th, 2006, Fort Worth Stockyards, Kris Kristopherson singing Me & Bobby McGee, with the Texas flag as a backdrop, and seeing fireworks going off behind him in the distance. It was priceless.

Regarding Alice Cooper, anyone heard his radio show which airs nightly. It's a riot, he's quite a witty and talented guy.

Lastly, Jimmy Buffet is next on my "hit list" of artists I want to see. My husband and I and our 3 kids plus 1 girlfriend (of our son) are taking a Florida trip next June, part of it which will be in Key West. I think Jimmy Buffet might live there. I know he has a restaurant there. Hopefully, we can catch his show!
