The day was cold, but the sun felt warm and even melted areas in direct sunlight. I cleared the back porch and moved a foot of snow off the car. My afternoon walk was a delight. The sun was so low and bright that a ball cap would have helped, but I needed a touque to keep ears warm. <smile>
This evening, I watched a documentary about the musical collaborations of Carole King and James Taylor. A friend reminded me of this one after I'd posted on social media about King's recent birthday. I've enjoyed their solo careers and their combined performances and tours. Their historic first joint performance at the Troubadour in Los Angeles in November 1970 must have contained some great songs, though they don't clearly recall which songs were included that night. They have toured together many times since including a 40th reunion Troubadour tour in 2010. Another tour is in progress in 2022 -- The Carole King and James Taylor Story tour. This gives me great hope since he is 73 and she is 80. These two aren't moving to their porch rockers anytime soon. <smile>
The songs I share tonight were part of their past tours. These are but two of the many songs written and sung by these two amazing and favourite artists. King and Taylor definitely are woven into my life tapestry. Keep safe. Enjoy!
