Several of the musicians worked simultaneously on Taylor's Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon album. The album was recorded at A&M Recording Studios' Studio B during January 1971 with the support of Joni Mitchell and James Taylor, plus various experienced session musicians. Two songs were co-written with Toni Stern: " It's Too Late" and " Where You Lead". James Taylor, who encouraged King to sing her own songs and who also played on Tapestry, had a number one hit with "You've Got a Friend," later in 1971. Three songs were co-written with King's ex-husband Gerry Goffin. King wrote or co-wrote all of the songs on the album, two of which had already been hits for other artists such as Aretha Franklin's " (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman" (in 1967), and The Shirelles' " Will You Love Me Tomorrow" (in 1960). ![]()
