Carole King - It's Too Late(1971) with Guitar solo Danny Kootch

[alfresco61]

Fantastic song like every single one on Tapestry. It was the soundtrack album to my senior year in college and made it hugely memorable even today. By the way, anyone know what that mic is she sings into? I have seen them often on videos from that era but they seem to have disappeared.

@CarlitaTrendy Quem sabe faz ao vivo!

ENJOY

[popboy0]

THIS is a piece of music history. In fact this video slaps me so badly, it awakes me to reality, making me aware that there was a time when this master piece was unknown or barely known. It's so hard to believe that It's Too Late wasn't always a clasic but a new song. Same feeling with Paul McCartney introducing in concert his "new" song Silly Love Songs! and many other pop master pieces....youtube is for sure 21st century's miracle.

[gomerpyleism]

She is/was the real ROSE, it was not Janis Joplin the movie was about!

[gomerpyleism]

She is clearly and obviously racially Jewish.

[davisfontanes]

@gomerpyleism is that a bad thing?

[gomerpyleism]

Is she in love with the guitarist or not???

Pretty obvious.

[gomerpyleism]

anything advertised by utube will be deliberately

and violently avoided by me to the extreme.

[gomerpyleism]

I AM GODS CURRENT REPRESENTATIVE

ON EARTH....

[francisparadis]

I f I just could turn back the hnads of time!!!

AN amzing artist !!!

[KillaCommie4Mommy]

Brings back good childhood memories of simpler times.

[kimmetje1976]

Masterpiece

[jakufication]

now....this is my favourite song

[redrocksrocks]

I'm pretty sure that is Danny Kortchmar on guitar, not Danny "Kootch". Kortchmar toured with Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Ronstadt - that circle - for many years. Amazing guitarist..

[TheWalter1969]

Happy 70th Birthday to Carole King :D

[fernadf]

I love this girl! it's the best singer in america ! love her!



[Gomek2]

I love Carol! And Tapestry is one of my favourite albums. I wonder whatever happened to the cat on the album cover, although I know it's long since deceased.

[Gomek2]

Carol is the artist that I know of that has a consistent sound through the years! I saw a concert she did back around 2002 and she sounded EXACTLY like she does here! She's an amazing talent and has left a huge physiological imprint on my brain as a toddler when this album was first released.

[stevescissors]

This is real music and real talent. Carole is amazing!

[marisapsicanalista]

Uma das mais lindas cações de todos os tempos, um clássico dos anos 70!

[lauxsd123]

When one gets disillusioned with the world- listening to a song by carol king reminds me that humanity and life can be beautiful.

[gomerpyleism]

My only fav Beatles lyrics.

"Was she told when she was young

that pain would lead to pleasure,

did she understand it when they said,

That a man must break his back to earn his day - of - leisure,

Will she still believe it when he's dead?

Ah Girl...rllllllllll "

very Dylanesque

[gomerpyleism]

give a shit about the lyrics, if the music is good...

[gomerpyleism]

Heart passiot song about having to get divorced,

See, only girls care about the lyrics of a song, boys don't give a shit..

if it rocks its the music, just look at the beatles expose of this with songs

'Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey".

'Why don't we do it in the road"

Infact the only Beatles song where the lyrics mean everything and the music nothing is the song Revolution Number 9...

But this is a well known fact, girls go for and scream for the lyrics,

boys dont

[gomerpyleism]

SO what if she's Jewish?

[gomerpyleism]

Can any one believe that at the time this song was released, in the early 70s, it was nothing special, all other singer/songwriters were working on the wave just left by the Beatles, making songs..equal too and better.

CAN YOU EVER IMAGINE A TIME AS GOOD AS THIS FOR MUSIC? WELL IT DID HAPPEN, AND IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN, JUST LIKE MOZART

AND BEETHOVEN WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN, BUT PEOPLE STILL LISTEN TO AND PLAY THEM.. AND IT WILL BE THE SAME FOR THIS MUSIC.

[gomerpyleism]

Everyone one here has post graduate taste in Music

[jackford1918]

Carole believe me. "It's not too late." ❤

[TheHillhippy]

A true master. You also get the felling that she a very nice person. At age 12 I listened to Tapestry album over and over. She had me in a comfortable spell and still does. Carol, will you please teach my 4 yr. old daughter to play like you? She loves you now too!

[youtuuberoxx]

she got started in the late 50's early 60's era of talented young songwriters like neil diamond,burt bacharach,paul anka,neil sedaka etc.

[peppervel]

Lea fm Glee looks like her... gosh. But Nobody can compare to Carole King! The one and only. so brilliant!

[LelouchLamperouge019]

Someone really needs to start a petition to make the BBC officially release these gems online FOR FREE. These concerts are possibly the best live recorded concerts ever. Truly a predecessor to MTV's inferior 'Unplugged' series. Gordon Lightfoot,Neil Young, Neil Diamond, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor...They all have done these back in the early seventies and need to be released to the public.

[jseph1234567890]

She is sooooo smooth...I love her voice...man that is live and she sounds so great!!! Thanks for uploading this..brings back memory!!

[dantean]

It took guts for Danny Kootch not to change his last name...unless Kootch IS a change.

[MsFrancis24]

This song is getting me through some stuff right now, and i'm olny 22! I love Carole King

[ruderkonge1976]

Tapestry is one of the best albums ever.

[AntiVaccine2]

@ruderkonge1976 see myvids&learn herbs like coriander,dill,dock,cayenne,,k­elp,pine,cleavers etC :D

[frank47hammer]

@ruderkonge1976 Yes, every song on it is first-rate. There is not one throw away song on it. They are all masterpieces.

[qitrodz]

This song is too pleasurable to sing, and too sorrowful to be true. It it like a drug that has comforted when I could sing it from my heart. It is like celebrating with a dirge, or dancing at the death of a friend......no matter the artistry, there should be a 12 step program for it.

[dantean]

@qitrodz wow.

[jseph1234567890]

@qitrodz Definitely bittersweet...like a lot Carole's material...So insightful!

[cruisin1susan]

@qitrodz I have never been able to describe the feelings that this song gives me whenever I hear it. So many emotions all at the same time. Your descripton is so true, thank you for putting it into words.

[rkl17]

@qitrodz I really liked your observation and description of the song..... it really does strike me in a similar fashion, sung too happy for the words?

[TheRosaneMar]

Sensacional!!!



[mslenalee913]

love her voice so much. inspiring!

[SuperWeng10]

its really sad we don't have music and artist like this anymore...

[sperk31161]
