One of JT's finest songs performed in a suitably respectful manner. You guys know how to do mellow. Once again, LLB does not disappoint.

This was my Dads favorite JT song. He used to sing to us in the car. It's about a creek on the edge of Chapel Hill near the Taylor home. I was fortunate enough to be at UNC THEN and heard James and Livingston a lot. Thank you for doing this and bring a tear and a happy memory. BW3

My dad is nearly 78, and has been a James Taylor fan for over 50 years. Any song in JT's catalogue will forever be ingrained in my mind as a reminder of my dad - because he listened to all of them. Thank you for this one, guys - it hits me right where I live. Superb musicianship as always.

@stephenlayland2889 9 ай бұрын
What an extraordinary mix. I beg your pardon if I call this out wrong, but here goes. Accents of dobro, fiddle to counterpoint the vocal breaks, stomach steinway for the subtle sustaining undertone, and an uncanny vocal rendition. This is classical music of a deep-seated American breed. It is every bit as complex and beautifully balanced as any chamber piece written by Mozart or Haydn. We will never know firsthand the sound of Mozart in his time. The sheer fabric of those instruments is lost to the centuries, and the hands that played them to the grave. But we can enjoy this in our time, and still not quite grasp the fullness of our great good fortune.

I come back to this at least once every few weeks. Mesmerizing and magical performances from everyone. It’s one thing to do a flawless musical reproduction of a song, but it’s an entirely different thing to tap into the soul of a piece. One of my top 10 LLB favourites.

What a great tribute to all the artists covered by LLB! No embellishments, no showboating, just the humility of recognizing the artistry that is there in the composition and getting out of the way. Bravo to the context, musicianship, and the work that goes into such a tribute.

I grew up in Durham, right next door to where James Taylor grew up, Chapel Hill, NC (albeit some years earlier). "Copperline" is written about the Morgan Creek area where he lived as a child, while his father (an MD and Professor at UNC-Chapel Hill Medical School) taught there. You all really nailed this song. Thanks so much for sharing. I always enjoy Jame Taylors' songs... Reminds me of home.

I love these old story telling songs from Harry Chapin's Taxi to Billy Joel's Piano Man and Steve Earle's Copperhead Road and the many, many in between. LLB had a great performance with one!! That was a perfect arraignment Mike, and it gave props to that song. You all are the best!!!

I've played and replayed LLB videos countless times since I discovered them a few months ago, but I've already replayed this one more than any other. Listening to it transports me back in time to when I lived in NC, walking through 9th St. in Durham, Franklin St. in Chapel Hill or through the kudzu in the back woods outside the little town where I grew up. It's a beautiful rendition of Copperline. You've done James Taylor justice.
