Squarepusher
Using the same equipment from the sessions that produced the majority of "Feed Me Weird Things" Tom now set about working on the material for his first album for Warp. His broad conception for this record was "to push away from the jazz influence that was being felt at the time to a more soundtrack-type of sound". According to Tom he was listening to, amongst other things, early Lalo Schifrin and the "Deathwish" soundtrack by Herbie Hancock around this time. That said, the album also contains some abrupt diversions into quite different musical territory, evidenced in what Tom calls the "Industrial Psychedelia" of "Chin Hippy" and "Rustic Raver".
James Taylor discography
After releasing more albums between 1974 and 1976, Taylor signed with Columbia Records and issued "JT" in 1977, which peaked in the Top 5 and sold over two million copies in the United States, certifying two times multi-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. In 1979 and 1981, Taylor respectively released "Flag" and "Dad Loves His Work", which both certified platinum in the United States and produced Top 40 singles. Nearly four years later, Taylor's next studio album "That's Why I'm Here" was released and spawned a cover of Buddy Holly's "Everyday", which only became a minor hit in the United States. This was followed by "Never Die Young" three years later and then by "New Moon Shine" in 1991, both of which sold over one million copies. After recording a two-disc live album in 1993, Taylor returned in 1997 with a fourteenth studio album entitled "Hourglass". The album not only peaked at #9 on the "Billboard" 200, but also received a Grammy Award for Best Pop Album the following year. His fifteenth studio release "October Road" was issued on August 13, 2002 on Sony BMG and certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. After recording a limited release in 2004, Taylor released his first major-release holiday album, "James Taylor at Christmas" on October 10, 2006.
