Repeat: BBC Four Sunday 11:30pm The award-winning US singer gives an account of her own life, looking back on her upbringing in Brooklyn, and the subsequent success she enjoyed as part of husband-and-wife songwriting team Goffin and King in the 1960s, including the creation of global hits Take Good Care of My Baby, The Locomotion and Will You Love Me Tomorrow. By 1970, Carole was divorced and had moved to Los Angeles, where she created her classic solo album Tapestry. Now in her seventies, she reveals herself to be as much an environmental activist as a musician, lobbying Congress in defence of the wildlife and eco-systems in her beloved Idaho.
