Info for Tapestry (2016 Remaster)

Her now-legendary album Tapestry is a HighRes „must-have“ for any '70s rock era collector. Carole King was famous as a writer of girl-group hits in the '60s. In 1971, she became more famous. That's the year Tapestry became one of the biggest-selling LPs of all time. It's easy to hear why--the music is loose, earthy, L.A. session-pop. King is casual, intimate, and tough; she covers all the emotional ground of the post-liberated woman with ease. She brings adult nuance to 'Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?' and comes up with hits ('It's Too Late,' 'I Feel the Earth Move') whose white-soul realism and maturity put pop hits to shame.

'...Carole King's second album, TAPESTRY, has fulfilled the promise of her first album and confirmed the fact that she is one of the most creative figures in all of pop music...' (Rolling Stone)

„Carole King brought the fledgling singer/songwriter phenomenon to the masses with Tapestry, one of the most successful albums in pop music history. A remarkably expressive and intimate record, it's a work of consummate craftsmanship. Always a superior pop composer, King reaches even greater heights as a performer; new songs like the hits 'It's Too Late' and 'I Feel the Earth Move' rank solidly with past glories, while songs like 'Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow,' and '(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman' take on added resonance when delivered in her own warm, compelling voice. With its reliance on pianos and gentle drumming, Tapestry is a light and airy work on its surface, occasionally skirting the boundaries of jazz, but it's also an intensely emotional record, the songs confessional and direct; in its time it connected with listeners like few records before it, and it remains an illuminating experience decades later.“ (Jason Ankeny, AMG)
