Squarepusher
Jenkinson was offered a five album record contract with Warp Records in December 1995, which was duly signed, and this led him to defer his studies at Chelsea Art College.
Early in 1996 Richard D. James completed the compilation process for "Feed Me Weird Things" which was made from over 50 tracks that Tom had given him on DAT, which were recorded from late 1994 to 1995. Around the same time Richard and Tom recorded two tracks together, one of which was subsequently edited by Tom and released as "Freeman Hardy & Willis Acid" on the "We Are Reasonable People" compilation album in 1998. Tom's contribution to the other track was reinterpreted and released as "Happy Little Wilberforce" on the "Alt. Frequencies" compilation released on Worm Interface in 1996. 1996 saw Jenkinson starting to be offered gigs both in the UK and in continental Europe.
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.
