Carole King - Music 1971 [EAC - FLAC] (oan) http://leetleech.org/images/46030345446438224853.jpg Review by \"earthvolunteer\" @ amazon Carole King\'s \"Music\" is not an overlooked masterpiece (it sold over four million copies upon its release), but certainly one which has been forgotten over the years. Perhaps too closely released on the heels of \"Tapestry\", \"Music\" has certainly been overshadowed by that previous trademark, landmark work. With \"Music\", King experiments with some new sounds and styles, such as the R & B track \"Brother, Brother\" which opens the album with a sound reminiscent of the tune \"What\'s Going On?\" The title track is a truly uplifting jazz waltz with an incredible sax improvisation as a centerpiece. The simplicity and honesty of \"It\'s Going To Take Some Time\" is stunning and certainly surpasses The Carpenter\'s more orchestrated version of the tune during the same year. Throughout \"Music\", she effectively utilizes a pair of strong female backup vocalists who strengthen King\'s own delivery of her material and who bring a richness and soulfulness to tunes such as \"Growing Away From Me\" and the Goffin/King standard \"Some Kind of Wonderful.\" If this album had received as much press and airplay through the years as \"Tapestry\" did, tunes like \"Song of Long Ago\" (with background vocals courtesy of James Taylor) and \"Carry Your Load\" would now be instant classics. As it is \"Sweet Seasons\" is the only top-10 single from the album and the only one most people would be likely to recall. Over all, \"Music\" does not have the musical cohesiveness of her next two projects \"Rhymes & Reasons\" and \"Fantasy\", but song for song it certainly contains some of the best material she has ever recorded.
