Soot and Stars
I AM SOOT!
Carole King
I was looking back into my Bill Withers thread and trying to think of a worthy classic rock artist to try and get some conversation going about. I was thinking who's somebody that had a lot of influence but people seem to have forgotten about. Who deserves a thread but has nothing in their name here. Well, being in a soul mood I thought, Carole King.
I'm no expert on Carole King but I heard her enough through my Mom where I bought:
Tapestry
This c.d. was very influential. I think I could go breathless thinking of the female artist who were inspire by this album. Carole was a great songwriter and these songs really reached people in a way that doesn't happen often and they still live on today as fresh as they were written. Any soul artist could cover them and have a hit. Now, I know it's very female geared, hell if the Lifetime Network wanted a c.d. as their mascot this'd be it, but music especially music with soul is universal. I dig it. I respect her. Here are some standout tracks:
So Far Away
It's Too Late
I Feel The Earth Move
I'll let you guys fill this out but I wanted to get the ball rolling.
