What a songbook and that's only a few from Carole King. Wow - if the touring production of this show comes to your town, go see it. We meet Carole at age 16 - in college (early admissions). She meets Gerry Goffin and the rest is music history. They write songs for the Drifters, Shirelles, Righteous Brothers and more. Their marriage has many ups and downs - will you still love me tomorrow.
then Carole on her own.......Tapestry......and history.
The musical Beautiful is a gem and you will leave with a song in your heart, soaring tunes and lyrics re-embedded in your brain.
Wonderful songs every single one of them. I remember them all. Thanks for the memories they bring.

Gem of a show
DeleteI had no idea there was a Carole King musical! I have a lot of friends who would love to see that.
ReplyDeleteKeep your eye out for the touring production. We are lucky in Dallas
DeleteThe ones that get embedded in are sure a win, even though they can annoy if still there a week later lol
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this one, but I know she was a powerful songwriting force in her time!
ReplyDeleteMy sister just saw it in NYC. Still a hit there
DeleteI would be interested in this one indeed! I'll have to see if it is coming our way.

ReplyDeletemaybe it will circle through again. It's a show with legs
DeleteLoved all those songs. A musical not to miss...hope it comes to our area one day. Thanks for the review.
ReplyDeleteIt's coming back to Fort Worth next year - think about a road trip
DeleteI wonder if it will come to the UK? I love her songs and watched a super documentary about her life the other month. So talented from such a young age!
