Gerald Goffin    1939-2014

 

Gerry Goffin (...)

collaborated

with Carole King

to write

some of the biggest

hits of the 1960s,

songs that endured

through generations

and became classics,

including

“Will You Love Me Tomorrow?,”

“Up on the Roof,”

“One Fine Day”

and “The Loco-Motion”

 

(...)

 

The couple’s

writing duties

were clearly delineated:

Ms. King

composed the music,

Mr. Goffin

wrote the lyrics

— among them some

of the most

memorable words

in the history

of popular music.
