Carole King: A New Colour in the Tapestry

　　As Carole King herself puts it during this concert performance in Hartford, Connecticut, the tunes on this video will represent either a trip down memory lane for the viewer--or a music-history lesson. King includes a couple of unfamiliar songs (from her then-new 1993 album, Colour of Your Dreams), but devotes most of this 85-minute set to the hits and highlights of her career, with a large, energetic band and backup singers (including her daughter). Those include such early song-writing successes as "One Fine Day," "Up on the Roof," and "Natural Woman," as well as the still-classic tunes from her ground-breaking Tapestry album: "So Far Away," "Will You Love Me Tomorrow?", "It's Too Late," and "You've Got a Friend." King herself is frisky as a pony, working the stage with the flair of Tina Turner and even bringing out unlikely guest-star guitarist Slash to provide chunky, chugging guitar on "Locomotion." --Marshall Fine
