THE AL RANDALL SHOW

GOFFIN & KING — 25 ESSENTIAL HITS  This week, we take the elevator up to 1650 Broadway and step into the golden age of the Brill Building. Gerry Goffin and Carole King didn’t just write hits — they shaped the emotional blueprint of the 1960s. From girl‑group harmonies to British Invasion smashes, from soulful ballads to psychedelic film themes, their songs defined an era and influenced generations.This 25‑track journey covers their biggest moments: The Shirelles’ groundbreaking #1, Little Eva’s dance‑floor phenomenon, The Drifters’ rooftop escape, Dusty’s reflective masterpiece, and Aretha’s iconic anthem. Labels like Scepter, Atlantic, Dimension, Columbia, and Colgems all carried their magic.If you love the sound of New York’s songwriting factory at full power, this is your hour.Sit back, turn it up, and enjoy the brilliance of Goffin & King.The Shirelles – Will You Love Me TomorrowBobby Vee – Take Good Care of My BabyThe Drifters – Some Kind of WonderfulTony Orlando – Halfway to ParadiseGene Pitney – Every Breath I TakeLittle Eva – The Loco‑MotionThe Drifters – Up on the RoofThe Cookies – ChainsSteve Lawrence – Go Away Little GirlCarole King – It Might as Well Rain Until SeptemberThe Cookies – Don’t Say Nothin’ Bad (About My Baby)The Chiffons – One Fine DayFreddie Scott – Hey GirlSkeeter Davis – I Can’t Stay Mad at YouMaxine Brown – Oh No Not My BabyHerman’s Hermits – I’m Into Something GoodThe Righteous Brothers – Just Once in My LifeThe Animals – Don’t Bring Me DownDusty Springfield – Goin’ BackThe Monkees – Pleasant Valley SundayAretha Franklin – (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural WomanThe Monkees – Porpoise SongThe Byrds – Wasn’t Born to FollowThe Righteous Brothers – A Man Without a DreamBlood, Sweat & Tears – Hi‑De‑Ho #GoffinKing #BrillBuilding #CaroleKing #GerryGoffin #60sMusic #GirlGroups #SoulClassics #OldiesButGoodies #ClassicPop #VinylCulture #MusicHistory #SpinnerOnTheAir #TheAlRandallShow
