Morning all

Just caught the end of BBC Breakfast and the feature on the upcoming west end musical based on Carole King's life. A clip was shown from Later with Jools Holland entitled 'You've Got A Friend - The Carole King Story''. Sadly I can't find a link to it anywhere, it's not on iplayer currently. Anyone know where I can view it? Had a quick google search but not turned anything up.

    You are confusing Carole King with Dire Straits. :wink:
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Wrong song, apologies to all.

    Carole King is hands down the favourite of the wife and myself. Prolific song writer and singer in one package. She and Gerry Goffin wrote so many hits that are good listening.
    Lets just got for a ride, the heck with all this stuff...

    aren't you thinking of the Carpenters Old_Timer?
    You'll be calling occupants of interplanetary craft next :wink:

    Yep, I realized this when I was driving to the airport this morning :oops: . Wrong tune for CK and GG, can't remember who wrote Rainy Days, probably Richard Carpenter. :?

    I can't figure out your reference to interplanetary spacecraft though,:wink: which is typical for my addled brain these days. Unless its some song I hadn't heard of, apologies for my screw up :roll: . Cheers.

    Ha Ha, calling occupants of interplanetary craft is/was a bizarre/wacky song about aliens observing our earth by the carpenters, a bit of a departure from their normal stuff

    Boy you are stirring up some old, long dormant brain cells with that choice of songs :? . I haven't heard that Carpenter's song in years, probably decades. Now I'll be humming the tune for a few days, you are a cruel person :roll: .

    Lots of good tunes from The Carpenters. Always liked Jambalay with its crawfish pie!
