Quad LP/Tape Poll King, Carole: Rhymes & Reasons [Q8]

[steelydave]

Released in 1972, Rhymes & Reasons was Carole King's fourth album. Reaching #2 on the Billboard 200 album chart, it was slightly less successful than Tapestry and Music (which were both released in 1971 and both hit #1) but it did yield the Adult Contemporary #1 single Been to Canaan.

Bought the US Q8 and CD. IMHO, it is musically the least of her Quads. I like the mix. Been to Canaan has been an earworm of mine for years.

8 for the mix

6 for the music

8 for fidelity
