Carole King: A Christmas Carole (Hear Music)
THERE'S something deliciously home-spun about Carole King’s Christmas offering and not just because her daughter Louise is in the producer’s chair.
That’s not meant in any negative sense, it’s a style that has always suited Carole’s down-to-
earth voice.
Songs veer from the traditional- sounding Carol Of The Bells, through winter classics such as Do You Hear What I Hear? and I’ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm to a laid-back version of My Favourite Things from The Sound Of Music.
No fuss, no mess, just simple, wholesome loveliness.
