Not resting idle after the release of her smash album Tapestry in February of 1971 (click here for that review), King followed it up in December of that same year with Music, her third studio album. It climbed all the way to the number 1 spot on the US Billboard Hot 200 by New Years Day of 1972, spending three consecutive weeks at that spot, and eventually achieved Platinum sales. It also went to number 28 in Japan, number 18 in the UK, number 10 in Norway and number 2 in Canada.
