This week in January of 1976, Carole King’s 7th solo album “Thoroughbred” was released on Ode records, produced by Lou Adler. This was her final release on Ode, and the last to be produced by Adler until 1984. It peaked at #3. on the Billboard 200, and eventually was certified Gold by the RIAA. The track “Only Love Is Real” was released as a lead single from the album, and became her 4th and final chart-topper on the U.S. Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. “High Out of Time”, a song featuring David Crosby and Graham Nash on vocals, was also released as a single. Leland Sklar said that this is the first project that all of the members of the Immediate Family all worked on together. It was recorded at A&M Studios in Hollywood engineered by Hank Cicalo.

“If the Sunset Strip was the commercial center of the pop music and club scene in 1968, Laurel Canyon was its residential center. Wannabe rock stars and groupies waited on line at night to get into clubs on Sunset Boulevard, reveled in both the music and the scene, then crashed in the bedrooms of Laurel Canyon. 

“You could drive along the winding roads of the Canyon any time of day or night and see people in varying degrees of substance-induced consciousness. The drugs of choice were mostly hallucinogens – marijuana, psilocybin, and LSD, or, as they were called in the parking lot of the Canyon Country Store, pot, shrooms, and acid. As I drove up and down the Canyon in the Mustang with the top down, I could hear music from the side canyons competing with the tunes coming out of my car radio. I could never tell if the local music was live or recorded, but music was always in the air and on the air.”

–  Carole King from her memoir “A Natural Woman.”
