This fan photo was taken in a residential area not far from where I grew up in Brooklyn, New York. (Not by me, I was just a toddler at the time. :)) Not sure of the circumstances which led to them being there. A local concert? Carole was originally from that neighbourhood too, maybe she was still living there at the time.

And look at how nicely they were dressed! A world away from Miley et. al.

Great photo.
It had been written for many years that King and Goffin wrote "The Loco-Motion' specifically for Little Eva because they found out she could sing and
liked her dancing style. King later stated that they knew she was a good singer when they hired her as a baby-sitter and felt that one day she should record one of their songs.

I love everything about that photo - the cars, the ladies, their clothes....I love that whole era.

Carole would have been only 20 at the time, married, a mom, and a successful songwriter. Great picture.
