Geemonetty, talk about someone who "writes the songs that make the whole world sing".

Natural Woman
I Feel The Earth Move
You've Got A Friend
Will You Love Me Tomorrow
Smackwater Jack
So Far Away
Beautiful
It's Too Late


What a record. Absolutely NO FILLER!

I need to get the remastered version.

"It's Too Late" is beautifully heartbreaking.

Man, I was raised on Tapestry as well.

No favorite tracks-just the whole thing. That's a piece of art right there. You feel her emotions-every one. Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, etc.-between Carole and Joni Mitchell-that's the template right there.

Carole's incredible, and love the fact she's written quite a few Motown songs as well if I'm not mistaken. One Fine Day to name just one.

Such a prolific songwriter. She's definitely somebody I think most people would be surprised she's behind much more than just Tapestry.

Great choice Finess!

Come on player, hell yeah. I was hip to this album when I was around 7 years old. My mom used to play it a lot.

I think that's why I can't listen to it EVER again. Same with Cat Stevens.

gonna have to dust this oldie but goodie off and give it a listen. Audience, you're right there's absolutely no filler on this album. I'm gonna have to revise my all-time perfect album list once more.

I think she was one of the few female singer/songwriters who could be emotional and open without being wimpy or treacly.

Are there any husband and wife teams that have the comparable songwriting resume's of Gerry Goffin/Carole King and Nick Ashford/Valerie Simpson?

Probably don't have comparable numbers but these duos have probably cranked out a few.

Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil:
You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'
On Broadway
(You're My) Soul and Inspiration
Kicks
We Gotta Get Out of This Place
Here You Come Again
Just Once
Don't Know Much
Never Gonna Let You Go
Somewhere Out There


Burt Bacharach & Carol Bayer Sager: (while they were married)
Stronger Than Before
That's What Friends Are For
On My Own
