Carole King's Tapestry is both an anthemic embodiment of second-wave feminism and an apotheosis of the Laurel Canyon singer-songwriter sound and scene. And these two elements of the album's historic significance are closely related insofar as the professional autonomy of the singer-songwriter is an expression of the freedom and independence women of King's generation sought as the turbulent sixties came to a close. Aligning King's own development from girl to woman with the larger shift in the music industry from teen-oriented singles by girl groups to albums by adult-oriented singer-songwriters, this volume situates Tapestry both within King's original vision as the third in a trilogy (preceded by Now That Everything's Been Said and Writer) and as a watershed in musical and cultural history, challenging the male dominance of the music and entertainment industries and laying the groundwork for female dominated genres such as women's music and Riot Grrrl punk.

Carol McGiffin has been on Loose Women almost since it started over a decade ago, and she is known and adored by their millions of viewers as one of the most-loved presenters on the show. She’s brimming with brilliantly funny anecdotes and controversial opinions, and says all the things everyone thinks but would never dream of saying. Carol is a natural storyteller and over the last few months she’s been in virtual hibernation – turning down invitations, neglecting her lovely fiancé Mark and spending weeks on end sitting in a wonderful sort of overgrown baby grow known as a Slanket® – and all this so she could knuckle down and write the story of her life so far; all for you, dear reader, so you can enjoy the magical mystery tour that is The Life and Times of Carol McGiffin, aka Oh, Carol! And she’s lived quite a life! It wasn’t an easy start - growing up on a council estate; struggling to make ends meet; an early criminal career shoplifting mouth organs from Woolworths... It wasn’t all doom and gloom though - Carol discovered her talent for making people laugh early on and she’s been getting into trouble ever since! She will open up about her tempestuous marriage to Chris Evans, and will reveal all about why it eventually broke down; she’ll also talk about her infamous seven years of celibacy and why she’s never been frightened of being single. She’s now found happiness with Mark and she’ll share her secrets for looking fabulous after 40. It’s not how old you are that counts, it’s your outlook on life that keeps you young. As uniquely entertaining, funny and completely outrageous as the lady herself, Oh, Carol! is a must-read for woman everywhere.

Carole Rodger was no different than most young girls. Growing up in Scotland in the early 70's she would dream of getting married to her prince, having two children, and living in her castle happily ever after. At the age of 17 she found her prince, eventually got married, had her two children, and moved into her castle, but then her world started to crumble around her. The one thing she dreaded throughout her whole childhood was forced upon her...being part of another broken family. Determined to survive a failed marriage, she moved out of the family house to start a new life for herself and her two children. Until a medical scare derailed her only six months after her marriage ended...breast cancer. Her unwavering desire and spirit to find true love, adventure, and to live life to its fullest persevered, and led her to the sport of mountain climbing. She eventually trained to climb the Matterhorn and was asked by a fellow climber if she'd like to go on a blind date, where she met her true prince, Sean. After a nine-month transatlantic relationship with this American, she got married in a Scottish Palace on Valentine's Day, honeymooned in Italy, and packed her bags, deciding to leave her beloved Scotland to relocate her children and herself to New York. Once again back on track and living the life she'd always dreamt of, this time with her soul mate, the unthinkable happened. Carole was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer and she asked God, why me again? The emotional roller coaster she rode built an incredible strength of spirit and hope within her which was inspirational to others as she looked for ways to treat the disease. How can something positive come out of such a story? Read on...

A groundbreaking and irresistible biography of three of America’s most important musical artists—Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and Carly Simon—charts their lives as women at a magical moment in time. Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and Carly Simon remain among the most enduring and important women in popular music. Each woman is distinct. Carole King is the product of outer-borough, middle-class New York City; Joni Mitchell is a granddaughter of Canadian farmers; and Carly Simon is a child of the Manhattan intellectual upper crust. They collectively represent, in their lives and their songs, a great swath of American girls who came of age in the late 1960s. Their stories trace the arc of the now mythic sixties generation—female version—but in a bracingly specific and deeply recalled way, far from cliché. The history of the women of that generation has never been written—until now, through their resonant lives and emblematic songs. Filled with the voices of many dozens of these women's intimates, who are speaking in these pages for the first time, this alternating biography reads like a novel—except it’s all true, and the heroines are famous and beloved. Sheila Weller captures the character of each woman and gives a balanced portrayal enriched by a wealth of new information. Girls Like Us is an epic treatment of midcentury women who dared to break tradition and become what none had been before them—confessors in song, rock superstars, and adventurers of heart and soul.

In this New York Times bestseller, comedy legend Carol Burnett tells the hilarious behind-the-scenes story of her iconic weekly variety series, The Carol Burnett Show. In In Such Good Company, Carol Burnett pulls back the curtain on the twenty-five-time Emmy-Award winning show that made television history, and she reminisces about the outrageously funny and tender moments that made working on the series as much fun as watching it. Carol delves into little-known stories of the guests, sketches and improvisations that made The Carol Burnett Show legendary, as well as some favorite tales too good not to relive again. While writing this book, Carol rewatched all 276 episodes and screen-grabbed her favorite video stills from the archives to illustrate the chemistry of the actors and the improvisational magic that made the show so successful. Putting the spotlight on everyone from her costars to the impressive list of guest stars, Carol crafts a lively portrait of the talent and creativity that went into every episode. With characteristic wit and incomparable comic timing, she details hiring Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence, Lyle Waggoner, and Tim Conway; shares anecdotes about guest stars and close friends, including Lucille Ball, Roddy Mcdowell, Jim Nabors, Bernadette Peters, Betty Grable, Steve Lawrence, Eydie Gorme, Gloria Swanson, Rita Hayworth, and Betty White; and gives her take on her favorite sketches and the unpredictable moments that took both the cast and viewers by surprise. This book is Carol's love letter to a golden era in television history through the lens of her brilliant show.
