James Taylor gets prestigious Carnegie Hall gigs
(AP) — He's gone to Carolina and taken that snow covered turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston. Now James Taylor is goin' to Carnegie Hall for a prestigious four-concert gig.
The silken-voiced songwriter will host a gala on April 12, 2011, to celebrate Carnegie's 120th anniversary, the hall announced Wednesday.
