Left wing politics, great songs -- Carole King was collecting Grammys as a teenager.

I resolutely believe King's soul inhabits this incredible teenage singer-songwriter. Former 2011 AGT finalist who already has composed 60+ songs, performed in two Vegas shows, and is headed for stardom:

Didn’t Gerry Goffin just pass away a few weeks ago? They really were quite the musical team.

In one of those weird coincidences that actually happens from time to time, I heard all three of the major recordings of "The Loco-Motion"—Little Eva, Grand Funk, and Kylie—over the PA in three different stores last Saturday.

I saw Beautiful the night that Carol King made a surprise visit. Great show and the perfect night to go. I was surprised at the amazing songs that were in the show. Check out these clips from You Tube from that night.

The 1st clip shows when she came out and surprised everyone and shows snippets of the song “You’ve Got A Friend

The next is the full performance of “You’ve Got A Friend”. Best encore of a show ever.

There was so much great stuff that came out of the Brill Building during the early to mid 60’s including stuff written by Carole King.Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow was probably the biggest hit she wrote...a all time great classic done by the Shirrels.
