Jimmy Webb - Yours For The Taking: The Found Songs of Jimmy Webb [Green + Bonus 7-inch]

Jimmy Webb opens up his piano bench on Yours For The Taking: The Found Songs of Jimmy Webb, pressed on green vinyl with a bonus 7-inch of original demos.

One of the great American songwriters turned 80 in 2026, and this record gathers songs he wrote across the decades that never had their moment, some intended for singers who never got round to them. Longtime producer Fred Mollin kept the compositions safe for years, then cut them with top Nashville players, giving the set a warm, unhurried feel that leans rock and roll with hints of jazz and country.

Several friends drop by. Graham Nash sings on "Winter Clothes," a song Webb wrote with Frank Sinatra in mind nearly half a century ago, and Michael McDonald brings his unmistakable soul to "Farther Than Eyes Can See." Justin Currie of Del Amitri takes the lead on the title track, while Amy Grant, Marc Cohn and Beth Nielsen Chapman add their own colours elsewhere.

The bonus 7-inch holds Webb's original demos of "Winter Clothes" and "If I Ever Get to Talk to You Again," a chance to hear the songs as they first came out of the piano. It is a generous, heartfelt addition to one of popular music's finest songbooks.
