James Taylor certainly is one of my all time favorite artists, although mostly known as a singer to evergreen numbers such as Fire and Rain, Carolina In My Mind and You've Got a Friend, he is also a virtuoso fingerstyle guitar player in his own rights.

One thing about TAB books is that, it will only be the most useful when you already know what a particular song should sounds like prior to studying it.
