Advantages: A thoroughly great night out Disadvantages: Depends on your taste in music
MaddyPrior has the most beautiful voice. She used to be lead singer with Steeleye Span in the 70’s and I always loved their music – remember the hit All Around My Hat?
I saw Steeleye Span perform live at the open air concert at Cardiff Castle where 10CC were topping the bill. It had rained all afternoon and we were all soaked but as MaddyPrior took the stage the rain stopped! I didn't really know her at that time but the music was brilliant and her voice was so clear.
Well, now she sings with The CarnivalBand, a group of 5 musicians who can play an amazing number of instruments. As you take your seats for the performance the stage is littered with guitars, fiddles, drums of all sorts, bagpipes (Irish and Flemish), oboe and many instruments I’d never even heard of!

Advantages: Timeless album of quality music. Disadvantages: You've probably heard it before!
What a lovely album! This album is a personal favourite of mine and the album can be enjoyed on so many different levels by people from all backgounds and of all ages. It is easy listening and makes good background music in any setting, yet for music lovers her vocal range expressed in tracks such as "Smackwater Jack" and "Home Again" is impressive.
It is an album that really allows you to appreciate Carole King's talent as the songs are backed with real instruments- a treat in comparison with the electrical 80's that followed. "So Far Away" is an excellent example of this with use of the flute and piano.
Highlights include the ever popular "You've got a Friend" and "Where you Lead" but you will find yourself enjoying one track after another, and subsequently disappointed when the final track "Like a Natural Women" comes to ...
Advantages: Lots of classics on one album, accessible to all Disadvantages: None that I can think of
Oh Carole
I am not a fool
Darling I love you
Though you treat me cruel
… You hurt me
And you made me cry
But If I lose you
I will surely die
Etc. etc. For those of you who haven’t caught on by now, those were the words of Neil Sedaka, singing his 1959 smash “Oh Carole.” Now for those of us who’ve thought about it, or even thought it worth thinking about ;), they will be an “Oh yeah! Written about Carole King!” moment, and for those of us who haven’t, and it’s probably worth noting that your life’s more interesting than mine if this is the case, it was probably the first thing we heard about Carole.
The album Tapestry, released way back in 1971, was definitely the album that jumped Carole King up on to the superstar stage, although by this time, she had already been ...
