Biography

The City was a short-lived popular music trio consisting of Charles Larkey, bass, Danny Kortchmar, guitar and vocals, and Carole King, piano and vocals. The trio was assisted by Jim Gordon on drums.

The City produced one album, Now That Everything's Been Said in 1969 but the album was a commercial failure.

The group disbanded in 1969, and the members went on to other things; King emerged as a solo performer on her album Writer (1970), another failure, followed by the groundbreaking and highly successful Tapestry (1971); Kortchmar became a successful guitarist performing on a number of recordings, including King's solo efforts, as did Larkey.
