Dan O'Neil a faitful CK fan from Maryland wrote to tell me that a
great "Tapestry" special aired on NPR on Friday 8/25. It included
interviews with Lou Adler, Toni Stern, and CK. Did anyone else hear
it? Becky? If you did, please add more commentary. I'll "paste" Dan's
post to me below:

Hi Bob,
Hope you got to hear the NPR story yesterday about Tapestry. Elizabeth
Blair reported on Carole's career up to Tapestry and spoke with Lou
Adler, Toni Stern, and Carole. Carole talked a bit about the creative
process. Toni Stern described going over to Carole's house to write
and she was tending to her babies--"slapping olive oil on a baby's
bottom with one hand and writing songs with the other" (reminiscent of
that line from Goodbye don't mean I'm gone...My baby's in one hand I've
a pen in the other...). It was a very nice blurb, and ended with the
comment that these songs were no longer just pop ephemera but had
become a part of our culture, and who we are. There is a
description and audio link on the NPR website. --Dan

Hey, BobbyD:
Thanks for that link. I've heard a number of these special reports,
but yesterday morning, I was hanging with some visiting friends and we
didn't turn NPR on to catch the news. I listened once to the segment
from the link you provided and caught a few others I had missed. The
one of JT's Fire & Rain is quite good, btw.
Again, thanks for turning us on to this. I recommend everyone give it
a listen.
Peace,
Mary
