Classy Jazz - In his lifetime, Taylor only released a couple of albums. He died at a very young age, I think in his early 30's, and all I can say is that his loss was a real loss to the music. In jazz, there are certain signature sounds that are instantly recognizable. Paul Desmond, Chet Baker and Thelonious Monk come immediately to mind. You can add Mike Taylor to that group. He had a really unique approach to music that easily separated him from the pack. All original composition if memory serves. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
