Free Music Notes for Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon
Free Music Review: (4.5 stars) ISN'T IT NICE TO BE HOME AGAIN ! ( JT's third album takes you to where you belong)
Hit: 5 Stars
James Taylor's Mud Slide Slim And The Blue Horizon (1971) will melt your troubles away, relax the muscles around your eyes, and take you to a place where you belong. Yes, these mellow acoustic guitar based songs are relaxing, but they're also also uplifting in a peaceful way that has a calming effect on anyone who listens with an open mind. JT soothes the soul with a warm, smooth, and friendly voice.
Love Has Brought Me Around:
It's time for me to be stealing away
Let those rain clouds roll out on the sea
Let the sun shine down on me
You've Got A Friend:
Ain't it good to know
That you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
They'll take your soul if you let them
But don't you let them
Mud Slide Slim:
Cause there's nothing like the sound
of sweet soul music
To change a young lady's mind
And there's nothing like a walk
down by the bayou
To leave the world behind
The music is mostly based around JT's acoustic guitar, but he gets help here and there from Carole King on piano, John Hartford on banjo, Richard Greene on fiddle, The Memphis Horns, and Joni Mitchell on background vocals.
Mud Slide Slim is also reflective at times. JT gets behind the piano and sings in Places In My Past.
And I can't remember why
But I still love those good times gone by
James grabs his guitar and sings the sad and atmospheric Hey Mister, That's Me Up On The Jukebox, and you feel like you're sitting there with him. There are plenty of other great songs on the album, too, including Long Ago And Far Away, Highway Song, and the bluesy Machine Gun Kelly. The album closes with the short but sweet Isn't It Nice To Be Home Again which features JT alone with his acoustic guitar.
The album won two Grammy Awards including Best Pop Vocal Performance and Song Of The Year (You've Got A Friend). This is such a relaxing production that, even if for no other reason, you might want to keep Mud Slide Slim And The Blue Horizon in your collection for attitude adjustment purposes. One of James Taylor's very best albums.
