About

In the history of popular music, there have been few singer / songwriters that have been
as prolific and impactful as the legendary Carole King & James Taylor. 
Carole King has been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame respectively. She wrote several Top Ten hits for various groups with her
partner and husband Gerry Goffin during the '60's and in 1971, her Tapestry album
became the top-selling pop solo album ever and held that position until Michael
Jackson's Thriller in 1982. Over the course of her long career, she penned over 400
songs that have been recorded by more than 1,000 artists. 

James Taylor rose to fame in the 1970s, when he became known for writing and
performing sensitive, affecting songs. Over the course of a long-running career, Taylor
has won five Grammy Awards and is the first artist to have top 10 albums in each of the
last 6 decades. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000 and
received a National Medal of the Arts in 2011. Taylor continues to be esteemed as a
songwriter and performer whose work speaks to people's inner emotional lives.
