"I’m James Taylor and I’m a professional autobiographer", says the celebrated folk singer at the start of this tender audio memoir. Through decades of music by one of the best-selling musicians of all time, who created classics like "Fire and Rain" and "Carolina in My Mind", James Taylor has doled out his history in the poetry of his work. Taylor says his early life is, "the source of many of my songs", and Break Shot is a tour of his first 21 years in rich, new detail.

A wonderful memoir
Revisado: 02-14-20
I've been a fan since 1970, and I thought by now I had heard all there was to know about James Taylor in his early recording years.
It turns out that there is so much more that I didn't know, and I suspect most folks around my age (67) who started listening to him then will feel the same way. His narration will sound a little too low-key at first, but very soon he will sound like he's sitting next to you, telling you his story...and it's unbelievable how much life he lived--and he's not even 21 yet!
If you love James Taylor, you will love this!

A GREAT book!
Revisado: 08-05-17
As a fellow Washingtonian since 1970 I could personally relate to the great stories & memories shared here in this great book...
As a big fan of music and radio, wherever you might be, you'll love Cerphe's first-person telling of life as a like-minded youth, and then through the years to now. There are probably many similar stories to be told all across the USA, but this is special, spoken by a man with the same passion others might have, but more so by a man able to communicate so well.
I absolutely recommend this book...and if you haven't read Bruce Springsteen's autobiography, well, you will make that your next read for sure!
Great job Cerphe!
