James Taylor concert

I'm just back from the James Taylor concert, here is the setlist:

It’s Growing (not sure of the title, but I think that’s it)

What A Mighty Storm

Witchita Lineman

Country Road

Why Baby Why

Oh What A Beautiful Morning (from Oklahoma)

Mexico

Everyday

You’ve Got a Friend

Shed A Little Light

(Intermission)

Hound Dog

Down In the Hole (sez JT: “Here’s a song about clinical depression. Hope ya like it!") :)

a cover that I didn’t recognize, originally by Junior somebody

Sweet Baby James

Fire & Rain

Sweet Potato Pie

On My Roof

Steamroller Blues

Carolina In My Mind

Shower the People

Whenever I See Your Smilin’ Face

Walking Man

How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)

You Can Close Your Eyes

The two partially acapella songs that he did with his 4 backup singers were worth the price of admission alone, they were "Shed A Little Light" and the final encore, "You Can Close Your Eyes". Here is a video from a few years ago of that song- so beautiful!
