Flawless. I think you have to have no ears to dislike this record! Haha. It was genuinely shocking at points too to hear a white woman singing such soulful, risque lyrics as those in Son Of A Preacher Man. Also, Breakfast In Bed and I Don't Wanna Hear It Anymore are both heartbreaking and voyeuristic/titallating (but not smutty) at the same time. Just wonderful.
Oy - this is one of my favorites, too. It's effing brilliant. And I love "Windmills of Your Mind."

Jackson Browne - Jackson Browne (Saturate Before Using) (1972)
I dunno if I prefer him to James Taylor, necessarily, but this and Late for the Sky are both beautiful. He's a hard one for me to listen to, tho - just because his lyrics tend to be so maudlin.

Another one that could've easily been on my list.

And I'm glad to see some Steely Dan love on this thread.
