- There are all other songwriters, and then there is Carole King. Nobody’s ever had an epic career quite like the Brooklyn girl who spent the Sixties writing classic hits for other artists-then spent the Seventies writing her own.
With her 1971 solo classic Tapestry, she set the standards that all young singer-songwriters still aspire to reach. She’s always gone her own way as a performer, a composer, and an environmental activist. When Taylor Swift inducted King into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2023, she simply called her “the greatest songwriter of all time.”
On this week’s special episode, hosts Brittany Spanos and Rob Sheffield are joined by the queen herself: Carole King. She tells the story of how she got started in songwriting, how she fell in love with making music, and how her artistry changed over the years as her life did. Our hosts also discuss the legend that is Carole King, why they idolize her, and how she changed all the rules of pop music with Tapestry and “It’s Too Late.”

She is such a down to earth, beautiful person. I love at the end when Carole talks about hearing from fans and telling them, "Thank you, I hear you, I feel you, and I love you." After all these years to come to that place in your heart..just wow!!
Like many great pop artists, she doesn't have what is considered a "good voice". Nor does she sing "correctly", but her unique vocal character is part of what makes her so special.
Carole King is a national treasure. She's the best.
