Carole King Instagram – #REPOST @lostcanyonsla . “It really was a perfect moment, that Laurel Canyon period. Carole lived up there, Joni and I lived in her house there for the better part of a year. The record companies were relatively benign and there were people in them who cared about the music and the artists – it hadn’t become a corporate monolith yet. There was a sense of there being a community: myself, Jackson Browne, Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Crosby, Stills and Nash. David Geffen was in the mix a lot. Linda Ronstadt, Peter Asher, Harry Nilsson. You know, it was pretty much what they say. Things really worked well.” – James Taylor, seen here with Carole King in 1971. 📷 Michael Webb/Keystone/Getty Images #jamestaylor #caroleking #jonimitchell #jacksonbrowne #crosbystillsandnash #lindaronstadt #harrynilsson #davidgeffen #laurelcanyon Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles
