Carole Bayer Sager

UK first press 1977. Record spotless.
Debut album from the songwriter behind about a million hits you definitely know, even if you don’t realise it. By the time she put this out in 1977 she’d already written for Dionne Warwick, Carly Simon, and pretty much anyone with a radio career. The record itself is a smooth soft rock and singer-songwriter blend, full of sharp hooks and clever lines. FFO: Carole King with a Hollywood tan, 70s FM gold, and songwriters finally taking the mic themselves.
