This 1971 pressing of Carole King’s masterpiece, Tapestry, represents a pivotal moment in music history, marking the transition from the Brill Building songwriting era to the rise of the intimate singer-songwriter movement. Released on the Ode Records label under catalog number SP 77009, this vinyl LP features some of the most enduring hits in the American songbook, including the upbeat energy of I Feel the Earth Move and the soulful, Grammy-winning classic It's Too Late.
