Carole King

Touch the Sky Carole King

Originally released in 1979, the country-tinged sound is much earthier than *"Simple Things"* and *"Welcome Home".* **Carole King** is more contemplative in voice and melancholic, no doubt due to the death of her third husband, Rick Evers. The personal loss is best felt in the song *"Dreamlike I Wander".*

That being said, the overall feeling of the album remains optimistic. *"Walk With Me", "Move Lightly," "Passing of the Days"* and *"Eagle"* can be described as personal pep-talks. * "Touch The Sky"* was co-produced by multi-award winning **Mark Hallman**.
