Ladies of the Canyon: The Music of Joni Mitchell and Carole King

Rob Kapilow turns the What Makes it Great? spotlight on the folk and rock music that came out of Los Angeles' Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and '70s. Of the dozens of artists who created and collaborated in the enclave, he brings forward two era-defining signer-songwriters: Carole King and Joni Mitchell. Through examples chosen from King's Tapestry (1971), and Mitchell's Clouds (1969) and Ladies of the Canyon (1970), he illustrates the genius of these two artists and the magic of the community that nurtured their iconic works.
