Liner Note Author: James Taylor .Rolling Stone (10/31/02, p.136) - Ranked # 19 in Rolling Stone's "Women in Rock: The 50 Essential Albums"
Rolling Stone (4/29/71, pp.40-41) - "...Carole King's second album, TAPESTRY, has fulfilled the promise of her first album and confirmed the fact that she is one of the most creative figures in all of pop music..."
Spin (p.101) - "King looked into herself and became a brilliant romantic realist."
Q (9/99, p.130) - 5 stars (out of 5) - "...if the term singer-songwriter gained currency anywhere, it wouldn't be far from here....King's inward-looking songs spoke of a mature woman going it alone, wounded but hopeful....perhaps it's time to put aside the baggage that TAPESTRY brings with it and celebrate instead a classic rock record..."
Dirty Linen (12/99-1/00, p.67) - "...this is a terrific set of songs...more than a quarter century after they first came to light, they are still fresh..."
Q (Magazine) (p.119) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[O]ne of TAPESTRY's greatest charms is its lack of histrionics, with King's unpolished, lived-in voice....There is a real pleasure in hearing the love song in an expert's hands..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.118) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "It's hard to think of another album that hit the Zeitgeist quite as emphatically as TAPESTRY."
Paste (magazine) (p.65) - "It's an exquisite, timeless work....TAPESTRY remains Carole King's definitive testimony..."
Record Collector (magazine) (p.96) - 5 stars out of 5 -- "[A]s good as you remember: mellow, exultant, heartfelt and even surprisingly dark, especially with the sad verses of the otherwise upbeat 'Beautiful'..."

4 stars Still Good Today.
I had this album many years ago and have been wishing for years for it to be introduced as a cd. At long last I have managed to find a copy. It still sounds as wonderful as when I first heard it.

3 stars Perfect
Carole King is a vey talented songwriter and singer, obviously, adn I think that this CD is her best. I actually heard her music first on the theme song of Gilmore Girls, which I am obsessed with, so "Where You Lead" grew on me very quickly. This is a wonderful CD.

5 stars Her best known album ever!!!!
Tapestry is truly a classic. This is obviously her best known album. It's quite obvious that her many fans from the early 70s had this album in their collections and probably still do to this day even though some of their original LP copies are by now scratched and worn out (I have it on LP and CD. My CD of it is not the remastered one.) I'm sure that Carole King's fans will remember her for this album for many years to come. I like a lot of the songs on it. "I Feel the Earth Move", "So Far Away", "It's Too Late" and some others are good ones. The title track has a sad sounding story to it. This album will NEVER lose its popularity!!!

5 stars Timeless
This is a CD with timeless song after timeless song. To prove this, just count how many of them have been covered by other artists.
