The James Taylor Quartet (or JTQ) are a British four-piece jazz funk band formed in 1985 by Hammond organ player James Taylor following the break-up of his former band the Prisoners. The band consists of James Taylor (organ), Mark Cox (guitar), Andrew McKinney (bass), and Pat Illingworth (drums). Recordings and live performances often include vocalist Yvonne Yanney.
Since 1985 The James Taylor Quartet has been adept at covering themes from films or television series. By incorporating more and more jazz and soul elements into his psychedelic rhythm n' blues, James Taylor is moving towards the acid jazz sound itself. Known in Great Britain for its public performances rich in improvisations, the quartet navigates wonderfully on the borders of Soul and Jazz.
