"Do the things you believe in, in the name of love. And know that, you aren't alone. We all have doubts and fears." -- Carole King, one of the greatest songwriters / singers that America has produced. King, who turns 78 today, teamed with her former husband Gerry Goffin to write some of rock music's classics: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?", "Up On The Roof," "(You Make Me Feel Like)A Natural Woman," "One Fine Day," "Locomotion," and many more. After her breakup with Goffin, King went on to an enormously successful solo career, starting with her 1970 ten-times platinum / diamond album "Tapestry,"which produced hits like "You've Got A Friend," "So Far Away," and "I Feel The Earth Move." She created so much of the soundtrack of our lives in the name of love.
