Discovered by Peter Asher, A&R for the Beatles' newly formed label Apple Records, Paul McCartney and Georgre Harrison were actually the first to hear his demos. A legend in the making, first heard by huge industry legends, "I just heard his voice and his guitar and I thought he was great ... and he came and played live, so it was just like, 'Wow, he's great," says McCartney.

"James was already singing with the conviction of a singer much older than himself. Everything that he had already been through was evident in his songwriting," says Peter Asher, who became his business manager.

With six Grammy Awards and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, his music has stood the test of time, and serves as a reminder that "You've Got A Friend" to every person who discovers his timeless gems.
