Frankly Speaking Show 112 Special Guest “Livingston Taylor”

December 3, 2007

Now Playing Special Guest "Livingston Taylor" joins Frank on Todays Frankly Speaking. Livingston Taylor is a Great American singer-songwriter, originally from Boston, MA. He grew up in Chapel Hill, NC, where his father was a professor at UNC.

The intro that the "Suffolk Center for Cultural Arts" wrote about "Livingston Taylor" on their website for his upcoming show this Saturday December 8, 2007 at 8:00 p.m. sums up his talent.

"When it comes to musicians, some are known as great singers, others are great players and others great songwriters. Livingston Taylor is all three! Songs he's sung &/or written include: I'LL COME RUNNIN', CAROLINA DAY and I WILL BE IN LOVE WITH YOU. With a career spanning four decades this music veteran, the kid brother of pop-folk superstar JAMES TAYLOR, is an ultimate crowd pleaser."

Taylor's break occurred when he was discovered by Jon Landau, (a record producer who would later go on to manage Bruce Springsteen). Taylor was one of the first artists to sign with Capricorn Records in 1970. His debut album, Livingston Taylor, produced by Landau, included the song "Carolina Day," an original, personal song which helped set the tone for Taylor's intimate and laid-back musical style. Visit Livingston's website and listen to his great music. Link to Livingston Taylor music downloads.

P.S. - In celebration of the Holiday season, Livingston has made "My Perfect Christmas Day" available for download (MP3) from his website.

Frank will also be joined by Frank Palm who will talk about this weekend's Christmas celebration in Edenton - always a happy, good-sized event and "Hugh Copeland" will let y'all know about the Hurrah Theater's Christmas offerings - a joy for the young'uns
