{"product_id":"5056083208098","title":"Carole King - Early Years - Import CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eCredits:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarole King\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis one's a puzzler. You'd figure that an album called The Early Years by Carole King would present recordings that King made in the early '60s when she was better known as a songwriter than as a recording artist. And thus unannotated, this ten-song European compilation, running less than 29 minutes, does contain four tracks that derive from that era and sound like demos: \"Crying in the Rain,\" which King co-wrote and which became a hit for the Everly Brothers; \"Breaking Up Is Hard to Do,\" a hit for Neil Sedaka; \"Up on the Roof,\" which King co-wrote and turned into a hit for the Drifters; and \"It Started All Over Again\" (incorrectly listed on the album as \"It Started Over Again\"), a hit for Brenda Lee. But the other six tracks all come from King's third solo album, 1971's Music, and they sound like they've been mastered from someone's third-generation cassette copy of an old LP, with poor sound and distortion. Looks like a prima facie case of copyright infringement for Sony Music to bring against the makers of this album. ~ William Ruhlmann\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Crying in the Rain2.Breaking up Is Hard to Do3.Up on the Roof4.Music5.Too Much Rain6.Song of Long Ago7.Brighter8.Back to California9.It Started over Again10.Growing away from Me\u003cbr\u003e1.Crying in the Rain\u003cbr\u003e2.Breaking up Is Hard to Do\u003cbr\u003e3.Up on the Roof\u003cbr\u003e4.Music\u003cbr\u003e5.Too Much Rain\u003cbr\u003e6.Song of Long Ago\u003cbr\u003e7.Brighter\u003cbr\u003e8.Back to California\u003cbr\u003e9.It Started over Again\u003cbr\u003e10.Growing away from Me\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Greyscale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51958624289057,"sku":"5056083208098","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/5056083208098.jpg?v=1761773023","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-us\/products\/5056083208098","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
