Next to Tapestry, which was released nearly a decade earlier, Pearls (originally released in 1980) is considered one of King’s finest recordings. It is just as the title suggests – a retrospective of classic songs written by the powerhouse creative team of King and former husband Gerry Goffin in the early 1960s that were still being recorded and covered by a variety of rock and pop artists. Included among the ten tracks are many of the songs that put other artists on the map before King launched her solo career: “The Loco-Motion” (Little Eva, Grand Funk Railroad), “One Fine Day” (The Chiffons, Rita Coolidge), “Chains” (The Beatles), “Hey Girl” (Bobby Vee, The Righteous Brothers, Donnie Osmond, George Benson), and more.
