Tapestry was around our house when I was growing up, but I connected with it more when I moved to California because it’s the blueprint for anybody who’s starting off in songwriting in LA. Carole King made this incredible transformation from Brill Building songwriter to performer, but she didn’t go crazy or self-destruct. She was able to remain a good parent and – especially now I’m a father – she has always been a role model for me. In America, it also did well by making it into the Hot 100. And as if that wasn’t enough, Martika’s cover actually rose to the 25th spot on that very important singles chart. However, following the Loma Prieta Earthquake of 1989 that occurred on the central coast of California, the song began to drop chart-wise. And why? This was because radio stations were forced to pull it from their playlists. It would have been insensitive for the stations to continue playing a love song talking about earth moving in the aftermath of an earthquake that claimed the lives of 63 people and left almost 4,000 others injured. I had been listening to B since I was a teenager,” says Szymcyzk. “I already knew the reputation he had among his peers. B could put more soul or heartbreak in a single note than other players could in a dozen. He was a one of a kind as a guitar player.” Given the tremendous success of Completely Well and The Thrill Is Gone, it’s hardly surprising that Szymcyzk would repeat the winning formula for Indianola Mississippi Seeds. When King joined Szymcyzk at The Record Plant studios in Los Angeles in May 1970, he was once again faced with a studio full of young hotshots. All songs written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King; lyrics for "Raspberry Jam" and "What Have You Got to Lose" by Toni Stern.A never-seen concert film of classic singer-songwriter Carole King’s first-ever show outside the US in 1973 will be released by Eagle Vision on 14 June. Live at Montreux 1973 captures her performance at the Montreux Pavillon as part of that year’s Montreux Jazz Festival, and includes hits from King’s landmark albums of the early 1970s, Tapestry, Writer and the then-just-released Fantasy.

You wouldn’t call “Tapestry” an explicitly political album, though drummer Kunkel ties its themes of personal liberation to the sense of possibility embodied in the efforts to end the Vietnam War and to stop the proliferation of nuclear power. King, an ardent Democratic activist known to turn up on MSNBC, no doubt would agree. Both “Nightingale,” and “Jazzman,” broke the U.S, Billboard Charts Top 10 list. But it was the jazz-inspired riffs of Carole King’s “Jazzman,” that defined one of Carole King’s most unique singles of her career. With legendary saxophonist Tom Scott blowing throughout the tune, Carole King went on to record one of her finest vocals ever. Wrap Around Joy sold half a million copies in its first year of release in 1974, and became the bestselling album in the country. Subsequent albums performed less well although King continued to record and collaborate with friends like James Taylor, David Crosby and Graham Nash, and resumed writing with her ex-husband, Gerry Goffin. Yet the bond with Mississippi, and Indianola in particular, would prove unbreakable. In 2005, Mississippi state House and Senate declared February 15, BB King Day. The man of the hour was overcome with emotion.Venusian Diamond” (King, Evers, Mark Hallman, Robert McEntee, Robb Galloway, Miguel Rivera, Richard Hardy, Michael Wooten) King, producer Lou Adler and Taylor in Los Angeles during sessions for Tapestry in 1970.
