Carole King may not be the world's greatest singer or most exciting performer, but the quality of her songs more than makes up for those shortcomings in this 16-song, 85-minute concert. Recorded in 1994 in Hartford, Connecticut, the show finds an ebullient King and her eight-piece band exploring the full range of her catalogue, including the brilliant early classics written with then-husband Gerry Goffin ("Up on the Roof", a very bluesy "Chains" and others), songs from the mega-platinum Tapestry album ("So Far Away", "It's Too Late" etc.), and a variety of more recent... solo numbers. King also brings out a 12-member choir and, in one of the weirder pairings in recent memory, Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash to enliven two songs, including the rockin' show-closer, "Do the Loco-Motion". A good time was clearly had by all. --Sam Graham, Amazon.com [show more]
