I remember watching Taxi with my Dad. I was 8 or 9 years old and sometimes, he would let me stay up late, to watch it with him. He’d always say, “don’t tell your mother”. (She worked nights as a waitress at the time). He died in 2021 from cancer. Now all I have are the memories. Good night Mr. Walters.

@Liminal_Life 5 күн бұрын

I also just realized Bob James is one of my biggest influences. So many of my favorites from this, to the hip hop samples and Fourplay. Another similar influence is Mike Post. We were lucky to grow up in a culture that used real music even in nightly sit-coms. Back then it was just background music to me, I didn't realize it was a soundtrack of culture and life, defining a few generations. I am thankful. 🙏

Then Mr. James walked to the piano and played the note. Perfect match, perfect pitch, evertime. Mr James was an attorney. Bob wa a proud Marshall Owl. Marshall, Mo.

There is no other song, theme song or otherwise, that has as much emotional impact on me as this song. Those few years of the Taxi theme playing only once a week when I was a teenager are burned into my soul. I honestly don't think there is any other theme song that was this good. It is so melancholy, both sorrowful and joyful at the same time. It is in my opinion one of those very few "perfect" songs.Takes me back in time to hear it again.

I don't know what it is about the tone or melody of this song that makes me a little bit emotional; it makes me smile but teary eyed at the same time. Maybe because I remember hearing it as a kid and at that time in my life things were simpler and I was more innocent. Loved ones were still around, hard times and struggles were still years away. Something about this track just makes me feel safe, like being pulled into a long embrace and being held, or finally coming home after being away for a long time. I never want that feeling to go away. 💗💗💗 I hope this track has this affect on me for the rest of my life. Thank you BJ for blessing the world with your genius!!🙏🙏🙏

Drummer seems to be a purest because he’s conversing with the beats and the rhythm.👏🏿 Wish i had an eighth👴🏿 of this talent.

This is my favorite version of the song. Loved watching "Taxi" growing up and this theme song is like a warm chocolate chip cookie with a glass of warm milk. So smooth. I also enjoyed the bass player's James Franco-esque facial expressions (Yo-Yo Ma would be proud if he saw this lol). Kidding aside, Bob James selected two great virtuosos; just awesome! Thank you for posting! ✌😎

Bob is a fantastic player for sure, do you notice how he just drops right into the background when someone else takes a solo. Great respect for other members in his band. When Bob comes back to play, they all support him. Result, awesome sound, love it.

Pure 70's remember watching it as a teenager late at night. Best theme tunes for all shows were in the 70's.

Brings back fond memories of watching Taxi Thursday night here in the UK back in the 80's. Great times. 👍👍

The next thing we knew, Run DMC came out with Peter Piper which sampled Bob James' Take Me To The Mardis Gras and suddenly a whole different light was shone on Bob's music. I've since collected many of his LPs on vinyl.

I watched taxi and loved the show. And I loved the theme music and had no idea who was playing it. When I found out, I always wanted to say this... thank you Mr James
