I'd be particularly interested in hearing from aliases.

    I gotta change weeds, if not quit altogether.

    at least my private mind garden tells me that
    nobody posting means everyone rides. case closed.

    IF FORCED TO RIDE, I WOULD JUMP OUT OF THE STILL MOVING TAPESTRY.

    That came out when I was in the 7th grade. Every girl in Jr High walked around with a copy under her arm all day. I heard it enough then to be able to rewind and play it any time I want now.

    Eli and the 13th Confession blows it out of the water. Not to mention 1st Take and Chapter 2. All 4 were in my sisters top 5.

    I wont ride for Carole's tapestry...but I will for some of the dope covers of her songs of that LP....

    Carole is a great songwriter, all credit due, but her songs sound better with other ppl. singing them IMHO.

    Laura Nyro - Eli and the 13th Confession, black cover, not as common as tapestry, but in the dollar bins. Came with a lyric sheet. Great record. Poverty Train, plus lots of songs people covered like Stone Soul Picnic and Eli's Coming that she wrote. She has other good records, Xmas and the Beads Of Sweat. I like one where she does covers of Motown and harmony groups with Labele backing her.

    the other 2 are Roberta Flack, the black cover and the yellow cover. If you have not listened you are missing out. She only wrote a handful of the songs.

    No proper yacht-rock collection is complete without "Tapestry" -----> if you don't ride for "Tapestry" then you don't ride for yacht-rock.

    Some people may be okay with that, but I do ride for yacht rock.

    First Take is THE SHIT.....!!!!

    angelitos negros and ballad of the sad young men....

    still havent been able to find a clean and crisp version of the LP, gone thru 3, and they are all played to the max, crackly and scratched...I finally realised why...cus if you have that LP you play the shit ALOT....


    on a side note... What are ppls favourite cover of a Carole King song?

    I could only stand the first 17 year old Shadow Morton produced one with Society's Child. I want to relisten to it as people are starting to groove to harpsichord based pop again.

    CK Covers:
    Smackwater Jack - Quincy Jones
    All the original girl group versions of songs like Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow.

    "In The Winter" is my jam from that album.
