Sweet Baby James, ever remastered ?

Dunno either, but I've always thought the CD transfer on Warner Bros. 1843-2 sounded remarkably good too. Except for the "napalm bomb" line, great album!

I have a copy of a Warner Bros. release on reel to reel tape, which, even though recorded at 3.75 ips sounds quite respectable. For some reason, guitar and vocals come across quite convincingly on R2R.

I also bought the DVD, "James Taylor Live At The Beacon Theater," on Columbia Music Video, CVD 50171. The May '98 concert contains about 25 songs, many old hits and some new material and it appears to be very well done. It shows Taylor's sense of humor; and the musical performance & recording is, well, "sweet". I definitely recomment it to JT fans. Although I don't think it contains "Sweet Baby James," it has most of JT's other hits.

Metralla, thanks for the clarification! I thought it meant Australia and Asia. Didn't realize that it refered to New Zealand.
