Carolina Day: Collection (1970-1980) is an excellent single-disc collection spotlighting the singer-songwriter's prime years -- the '70s. Drawing highlights from his albums for Capricorn and Epic, the collection hits almost all the high points, including the hit singles "I Will Be In Love with You," "I'll Come Running" and "First Time Love," hereby offering a fine summary of Livingston Taylor's best work. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
