"&lt;wm:embed type=\"related\"&gt;&lt;/wm:embed&gt;&lt;p&gt;There&amp;apos;s no shortage of James Taylor hits collections out there, but that doesn&amp;apos;t make this new live CD-DVD, any less welcome. Taylor&amp;apos;s fans regard each reframing of his career as an artistic snapshot of his life at that moment, and this set offers a particularly warm portrait. Recorded at the Colonial Theatre near Taylor&amp;apos;s home in the Berkshires, &lt;em&gt;One Man Band&lt;/em&gt; finds the singer re-engaging such classics as &amp;quot;Something in the Way She Moves,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Sweet Baby James&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Fire and Rain&amp;quot; in spare, mostly acoustic settings. While the nineteen-track CD is more specifically performance-oriented, the two-hour DVD features Taylor sharing photos, video footage and memories in ways that provide a rich context for his songs. Taylor&amp;apos;s supple baritone remains a wonder of intimacy, and it finds its match in the effortless intricacy of his finger-picking. More recent songs like &amp;quot;My Traveling Star&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Mean Old Man&amp;quot; hold their own next to the likes of &amp;quot;Shower the People.&amp;quot; Taken together, the &lt;em&gt;One Man Band&lt;/em&gt; CD-DVD is more a musical biography than simply a greatest-hits set, Taylor&amp;apos;s latest missive from the long and winding road he&amp;apos;s on.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
