  Carole King
Ironically, Ode's first move after signing King was to package her in a "rock band" that actually consisted of just her and three sidemen - bassist Charles Larkey and guitarist Danny Kortchmar, both of whom backed King on her later albums (Larkey eventually married King), and studio ace Jim Gordon.
Produced as usual by Adler; the rhythm section is Charles Larkey and Andy Newmark.
The good news is the brief opening title track, with an inventive string arrangement (by King), and the stripped-down ballad "Time Alone." Her least commercially successful effort since her 1970 debut, and a big disappointment for her fans.

 Metal Edge - Up and Coming - Lamb of God 'Killdelphia' DVD Revi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Chris Alder's percussive double-bass drumming - precise, intensely timed and off-timed fills create a sonic wall of sound that a scud missal could not penetrate on "11th Hour." The dude practices every day and is always seen warming up before every gig.
Beat by beat, he blasts along precisely with the fury of the guitar assault and moves the songs forward like the pistons of a steam engine on a crash course destiny with the caverns of Hell.
Adler is fifty percent of the heaviness of Lamb of God; the guitar riffs by themselves are heavy, but if you mentally pull the drums out and listen to the guitar tracks on this recording, they are half as heavy without percussion as is the case with most heavy music.

This tune was one of Willie’s (Adler, Lamb of God guitarist) ideas that we flipped around a million different ways before we finally settled on an arrangement.
