Hey, Alice:

Carol King's Tapestry is one of those unusual albums that has an emotional wholeness to it. Like a couple of albums that I've mentioned. Compiling Greatest Hits albums often destroys that wholeness. Somehow, it breaks the spell.

I just put together a June Christy CD for myself and to share with friends, and even though I included wonderful cuts from other albums in addition to Something Cool, I included every track from Something Cool and put them together as a body. The additional tracks that I selected kept the mood of the original album..
