Great
I really enjoyt listening to all of Carole Kings' songs. This was an excellent purchase. She is an excellent singer and has an amzing voice. I would recommend the purhcase of this CD to anyone who likes to hear a great musical artist.


Nice live CD.
I love the sound of the live concert. Great if you're a Carole King fan, but not for someone new. I like to listen on long road trips.


You don't realize how much Carole King has influenced the scene til you listen to her sing her own work
This CD proves she's still out there and she's still working. Is this the best of her work? It's all fabulous, let me tell you, but I have hope that the best is still yet to come.

I listen to this music and think how many moments has her music been with us even subconsciously? "Pleasant Valley Sunday" reminds me so much of a neighborhood I once lived in with the garage band down the street and the lawn-of-the-month wars between the neighbors on either side of me.

Oh yeah, and I heard "I'm into something good" the first time I saw my first crush. And "Natural Woman" was my favorite song for years. . . just how many artists have covered this song?

This is the music a lot of us grew up with. I believe it will be around for a long time, but honestly, nobody does it like Carole King. .


Where's The DVD??????
One of the finest singer-songwriters of our time. This is a spectacular "Living Room" show from Carole King. It goes without saying that this is a concert I would really have loved to see.

I guess my point here is really a question? Why didn't they film this? If they did. . . . . . . . . please release it on DVD.


Nobody DID it better.........
I do, but music and politics should have nothing to do with each other. Someone is going to accuse me of writing this because I disagree with Carole King's politics. See my review of "Tapestry".

A story is told that may be apocryphal, since it has been told about more than one lady. . . someone goes up to an aging Opera Diva and says "Madame ****, it must be terrible for such a great singer to realize you've lost your voice". The wise lady replies "Oh, no. . . what would be terrible would be if I DIDN'T realize it".

Listining to this album made me think of watching Willie Mays play for the Mets in 1973, or of the last few times Arnold Palmer played The Masters. Oh, the songs are as great as ever, and Carole's ability to connect with an audience remains fabulous. And, disc two does sound better than disc one. Still. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

If you're a BIG FAN [like me] who just has to have all of Carole King's records, get this. It does have some wonderful moments. But if you only want one, or if you're just discovering the voice of my generation, get "Tapestry". THAT album will remain perfect forever.
