Carole King - It's Too Late (BBC In Concert, February 10, 1971)

[@elliebradley5192]

I was 20 when this beautiful song came out; Im 72 now and so much has happened to, not just me, but the world. This song never fails to lift my spirits. Thank you Carol King ❤

I seem to like this song in a different way to you. I wouldn't say it lifts my spirits at all. But I am always riveted by its evocation of failed love.

Agreed! But it must be a dark spirit connecting you. Darker song (bc it’s too late). Magical chord changes. W O W.

[@Tony-H-Gos]

.......and Olivia Newton-John, Elkie Brooks, Diana Ross, and Dionne Warwick - remember them too. These are all way, way.............. better than some very average or poorer vocalists nowadays. Why not also mention the late, great John Miles (Mr. "Music"), and Tina Turner too.

[@davidbentley4032]

@@Tony-H-Gos I often read comments like this on KZbin, almost always from older people (of which I am one) and they hack me off. This risible over-generalisation that people can't sing these days. There is more music than ever right now augmented by the TV 'talent' shows so the ratio of 'very average or poorer vocalists' is certain to be higher. But there are plenty of singers who are every bit as good as those you speak of and please don't mention auto tune. Try listening to Weyes Blood and Angel Olsen and tell me, hand on heart, that they are 'average.' Or in the rock/metal sphere, Floor Jansen of Nightwish.

So Tapestry is unrivalled in its raw sensuality, wilderness and beauty in all its ingredients -lyrics, vocals, arrangements and specially string arrangements. Carol King is God blessed gift to the humans. Tapestry, Hunky Dory, Dark Side of the Moon, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. These are four milestones on which entire modern music is held.

I am 58 and anything that Carole King does reminds me of the coolest teacher I ever had. Her name was Joan Saunders. She was fresh out of College and got a Lead Teacher job in my School District to replace a teacher that planned to travel around the World. I still think of her as the most influential person of my youthful life. I was 6 years old and the War was happening and was really bad. She was into Peace, Freedom for all, The Ecology, and treating people the right way. She taught us that everyday. The best part is she filled in for my First Grade year, and did such a great job that she got hired. Then, I had her again in Third Grade. She is part of why I am who I am today. I am a Humanitarian. I am an activist for the Environment and am against War and believe nothing that our Government (USA) says about anything. God Bless you Mrs. Joan Saunders, wherever you are.

I love this woman so much

[@lauranowak3632]

I was born in 1969. When Tapestry was released my mom had the LP, and played it until the grooves were worn out. I learned what real music was about, and these are my favorite memories. I was truly blessed to have heard the best music ever recorded because my mom introduced me so early. I went to school with the intention of becoming a DJ. For years my mom would always say if I knew my homework as well as I knew music I would be a straight A student. I had the best teacher, every genre, and it truly spoke to my soul. ❤️🎶❤️

What’s one lesson you’ve learned in your 64 years that the upcoming generations should learn ?

[@sergesarkissian1427]

Carole when you sing you are allways fantastique souvenirs when i was 18 years old

[@paulsuen6666]

Absolutely legend in action. Just thrilled to see how the legend played it live ... The date was 10 Feb 1971, exactly the one when Tapestry was released. The program must be a seminal, monumental event for BBC.

She just gave up and was like 'fuck that I'll just create my own instrument if you can't hit that note lol'

@@danielvasquez8830 Carole King si es una diva.

[@JosephPKlein]

I've owned Tapestry on vinyl, cassette, CD, and MP3. It's still a perfect album.

[@ricksegal3065]

Great song I was 18 when this came out. Great memories but scary times.

[@johnshannon9656]

Fuck me - the tune-up was a masterclass.

[@michaelswinton-f6r]

21 yrs young and music was music and had a meaning. An era long gone

[@jaytoepfert6776]

Such a beautiful song, but sad at the same time. One of the best songwriter's ever.

[@henrylacena4383]

Why can’t we have this kind of music anymore these days?

[@永井生義]

もお40n

[@paulbackhard6315]

Because they won’t let grown ups release music anymore

[@jmagner5471]

It’s right here!

[@ChairmanMo]

This is what happens when you allow 5 or 6 mega corporations + the tech giants and ticketmaster to control the mass production and distribution of music and art in general.

[@diamonddog13]

We do, it's just not played on the radio.

[@DavidChapman-hu2eq]

Beautiful song lovely lady brings back memories a real classic

[@lindabeeston7408]

Always loved this song. It reminds me of my sister Susan xx

[@davidgress6535]

What I've noticed about most of the female singers that differs them from more modern female singers is that most of the female singers from the 1970s, besides being highly talented, with iconic voices and excellent musicianship, they were so naturally beautiful often wearing little to no makeup like carole king. Most of the female singers were absolutely stunning to see and listen to ; Carole King, Olivia Newton John, Donna Summer, chakka khan, deborah harry, etc.

[@AlejandroAlviar-q2p]

Ahh the 70s, pure unadulterated music. Lucky to have such good music and artists.

[@patrickfoley1018]

Beautiful..... truly beautiful.... thank you so much for sharing ..... please keep up the good work ....
