Reviews
Displaying all reviews (1)Taxi is a great, long ballad by Harry Chapin; and it really deserves more airplay than it gets. Its a long song that tells a long, strange, sad story; and it really makes the listener feel like theyve been on a exhaustive journey themselves by the time the song is over.
This piano accompaniment arrangement follows Chapins version nicely and is very true to the original song. It is an interesting song worth exploring and very enjoyable to play.
