Video footage of Carole King‘s entire performance at the 1973 Montreux Jazz Festival has never been seen by fans who didn’t attend the Swiss event, until now. The entire pro-shot footage and recordings of King’s first-ever performance outside of the United States will be released as a concert film and live album titled, Carole King – Live at Montreux 1973.
The concert film and album will arrive through Eagle Vision, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group, and is currently scheduled for a June 14th release. The album will be available on both CD and vinyl, with the film on DVD. Live at Montreaux 1973 will include every song performed by King and her 11-piece band at the event, including “Up On The Roof”, “You’ve Got A Friend”, and her timeless ballad, “(You Make Me Feel Like A) Natural Woman”.
The film will also feature King’s intimate, solo-piano performance of “It’s Too Late,” to her audience seated right in front of the stage, to whom she addresses, “Usually I don’t get to see my audiences. Tonight, I’m seeing you.”
In addition to debuting the film’s official trailer on Tuesday, Eagle Vision has shared footage of King’s performances of “You’ve Been Around Too Long” and “It’s Too Late”. Watch all three videos below.
