Exactly one week to go! This time next Thursday, James will be right in front of me.
This performance is so beautiful...

Tomorrow as I write and actually Friday 8 July, BBC4 (tv) is showing at 9pm a programme called 'Troubadours: the rise of the singer/songwriter'.
It's aCarole King and James Taylor recall the beginnings of their artistic partnership at the Troubabour club in West Hollywood, with contributions from Elton John, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Kris Kristofferson, David Crosby, Roger McGuinn, Cheech and CHong, Steve Martin, JD Souther, and Peter Asher.documentary exploring the popularity of singer/songwriters in LA during the 1970s.
(Details from Radio Times magazine. Can't find an online link which quotes these details.)
That programme runs from 9pm - 10.25, and is immediately followed by 'Carole King and James Taylor: Live at the Troubadour', a concert recorded in 2007. (And which I think has been shown before.)
And following that, there's a repeat of 'Hotel California: from the Byrds to the Eagles'.
The 'Troubadours' programme is repeated at 1.50am Saturday morning, and the Carole King/James Taylor concert is repeated at 3.15am.
Thank you so much for alerting us to that! I know what I'll be doing tomorrow night...

Yep - It's an interesting and entertaining documentary. Anyone who hasn't seen it should definitely try to watch it if they get a chance.

Just noticed that there's also a programme on after the Hotel California documentary called "California Comes To The Whistle Test" and it features performances by people like Jackson Browne, Little Feat and Bonnie Raitt. I am so ready for all of this!

God, I love the Troubadours documentary. So much good stuff in it, it's hard to know where to start. It makes me even more excited to see James next week!
And, I must say, although I'm probably in the minority... Mr. Kortchmar couldn't be sexier if he tried.

Awww, you're not in the minority Lou! He did indeed look sexy from the caps you sent me anyway! Anyway...... Isn't variety the spice of life? We'll take any sexy guy we can here!
