You can reel off his accomplishments - Motown session guitarist, opening act for Bachman Turner Overdirive, played more clubs than he can remember since the 60's - but what really gets you about Taylor is a little more basic. For one, the guy smiles all the time - especially when he wrangles amazing licks from his electric guitar. He's humble - even though he could smoke your butt with rootsy jazz-blues notes: he keeps it balanced and in perfect step with the songs. And his voice ... what an honest, open, blue-collar voice - smooth as velvet, with just a hint of Stevie Wonder. The way Taylor wraps his voice around a song, you feel like somebody ought to turn off the lights.
