Born March 12, 1948, in Boston, Massachusetts, James Taylor's family ended up moving to North Carolina when he was young because his dad got a job at the university there.

And he's collaborated with a ton of other big names like Paul McCartney, Carole King, and Stevie Wonder. The guy's been everywhere!
