I always enjoy her demos of songs she was pitching to other artists. Many are available on YT. Here is one she wrote for the Monkees:

Sometime In the Morning (Carole King Demo)

and the recording by the Monkees (in which Carole also sings backup):

Sometime in the Morning - The Monkees

Thanks for that. Yeah - I enjoy hearing that stuff as well. That was a pretty good demo and close to the finished product.

Sometimes the early ideas are not as close to the final product. The Beatles come to mind. The recordings of the early takes are sometimes not even close to the final song.

I find the creative process of anything to be intriguing.
