Never Die Young is singer-songwriter James Taylor's twelfth album, originally released in 1988. The album reached #25 on the Billboard 200 and was certified Platinum by the RIAA. The title track was the most successful single of the album and peaked at #80 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Both the single “Never Die Young” and the track "Baby Boom Baby" referred to the passage of time. While his aging contemporaries took various steps to keep up with changing fashions in music standards, James Taylor just kept playing a summer concert tour each year and periodically put out an album with songs that reminded his listeners why they liked him so much. The only unusual aspect of the album was that it included no big oldies cover from the '50s or '60s on the album. Every song on Never Die Young was either written or co-written by James Taylor.
