Notes: 1) Above picture and following credits were taken from the 2007 Japan CD reissue. 2) Japan CD reissue comes with a Pete Frame-inspired genealogy tree insert of Carole King’s past musical history, drawn and researched by Hideyo Itoh (see detail below). 3) It looks like the obi in the Japan reissue indicates original release year for album as 1976. That would be a typo, as original release is 1975 (see picture below).
