I love Taylor's version of Abraham, Martin, and John. His friend John Cook playing the guitar is awesome too.

Love the passion in Taylor's voice! Jon also accompanied him on Georgia on the In Your Time CD. I always find it endearing that Jon reached over and pinched Taylor's butt right before this crowd of thousands in Orange Beach.LOL. Love the Elvis tee,too. It is amazing how he channels this music which was before my time and definitely before his...

Thanks, Bluesman! I was at this concert at Orange Beach, Alabama and it was an awesome experience. Sort of a second homecoming performance for Taylor as he spent many years learning how to perform just a few miles away at the FloraBama Club on the beach

Wonderful find! Thanks for sharing it with us. Taylor has reintroduced
me to a lot of classic songs that I
loved and had forgotten about.

Thanks Bluesman. Appreciate the TH videos very much.

Tonight Taylor performs one of his originals and receives an award at the Alabama Music Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Let's hope someone videos it and sends it to you!

Nice video of T.H. with his old buddy John Cook. The harp and guitar are great.

Let me add my heartfelt thanks for giving us this video Bluesman. I think Taylor's version of this song is the best I've ever heard. And Jon Cook is pretty darn great too.
