 Nigel John Taylor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Taylor (born Nigel John Taylor on June 20, 1960 in Solihull, Warwickshire, England) is an English bass guitarist and co-founder of the New Romantic band Duran Duran.
Taylor played guitar at the time Duran Duran was founded, but switched to bass guitar after discovering the funky rhythms of CHIC, and learning to enjoy the rhythm section by playing with Duran's freshly recruited drummer Roger Taylor.
John used an Aria during the height of Duran Duran's fame and the bass is automatically associated with him with its healthy-sounding growl.

John Taylor, the Thames waterman, also resorted to publication by subscription, and, in his case, his whimsical personality, added to the amusement afforded by the rough wit and boisterous humour of his effusions, secured a large number of patrons.
Before starting on one of his eccentric journeys, he would circulate a quantity of prospectuses or “Taylor’s bills,” as he called them, with the object of securing subscribers for the account of his travels to be afterwards published.

 John Taylor (poet) at AllExperts
Taylor discusses the watermen's disputes with the theatre companies (who moved the theaters from the south bank to the north in 1612, depriving the ferries of traffic) in The True Cause of the Watermen's Suit Concerning Players (written in 1613 or 1614).

Many of Taylor's works were published by subscription; i.e, he would propose a book, ask for contributors, and write it when he had enough subscribers to undertake the printing costs.
