Springsteen, Sting Pay Tribute to James Taylor

Lisa Rogers, 02.09.2006, 11:28 AM

(EZ-Tracks) - Stories abounded when a powerhouse lineup of Sheryl Crow, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Bonnie Raitt, Paul Simon, Jackson Browne, David Crosby, the Dixie Chicks, Dr. John and Taj Mahal kicked off Grammy week by honoring 57-year-old James Taylor as MusiCares Person of the Year on Monday night. "Everyone has been telling these great James Taylor stories, and nothing for me says it better than this song," Carole King said, launching into "You've Got a Friend. Taylor joined her at the piano and they dueted on the final chorus of the song that was an individual hit for both of them."I can't thank you enough for showing up. It's not the same without you," Taylor said. "It's strange to be at an event like this and still be alive. It's very moving, very terrifying and very wonderful to hear these songs done live." Taylor returned for an encore of his classic "Fire and Rain."

Sounds Like a heavenly evening. To be a fly on the wall in that company...
