His Greatest Hits album from 1976 was certified diamond and has sold more than 11 million copies. Taylor’s four siblings, Alex Taylor, Livingston Taylor, Hugh Taylor, and Kate Taylor have also been musicians with recorded albums. (Livingston is still an active musician; Kate was active in the 1970s and did not record another album until 2003; Hugh opened a bed-and-breakfast with his wife; Alex died in 1993.) Taylor’s children with Carly Simon, Ben Taylor and Sally Taylor, have also embarked on musical careers. ————————— James Taylor is a British acid jazz musician who has recorded several albums o...
