"Native son coming to Carolina for tribute - Chapel Hill naming Morgan Creek bridge after James Taylor on April 26," ''The Chapel Hill Herald'' (Chapel Hill, NC), March 27, 2003, page 1: ''"Even though Taylor was born in Boston on March 12, 1948, he moved to Chapel Hill when he was 3 and considers himself a North Carolinian."''</ref>

Taylor's career began in the mid-1960s, but he found his audience in the early 1970s, singing sensitive and gentle acoustic songs.
