Carole King Releases Christmas Album

518lOAgdc4L SL500 AA300 Carole King is known to all Gilmore Girls fans, if only for her beautiful adaptation of her hit “Where You Lead” (on her album Tapestry) to become the Gilmore Girls theme-song. Carole has just released a new Christmas album, A Holiday Carole.

In a recent interview with the BBC, Carole talks about how she didn’t enjoy singing Where You Lead until it had been remade for Gilmore Girls - made for the love between a mother and daughter. Prior to that, the song came out too close to when the feminist movement took hold, she says. Very interesting.

Carole lists more appearances and videos on her website that are recent, from promoting the album. She is also on Twitter here.

Here is an interview with Carole as well as some snippets from the album:

Thanks David!
