EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Certified 11X platinum, this groundbreaking pop masterpiece smashed all existing sales records upon its 1971 release and continues to sell more than 20,000 units a month after almost 30 years! Tapestry was #1 for 15 weeks and earned 4 Grammys. Now this essential classic LP returns, newly mastered with 2 unreleased bonus cuts ("Out in the Cold" and "Smackwater Jack" - live). The expanded edition booklet sports unpublished photos and memorabilia, original artwork and lyrics.


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. --Steve Tignor --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
