Touch the Sky is an album by the American musician Carole King, released in June 1979. Produced by King and Mark Hallman, it was recorded in Austin, Texas, with Jerry Jeff Walker's band.
Critical reception
The New York Times noted that "the songs and the musical idiom in general are tougher than in the past, full of the slightly raunchy Southern rock that characterizes Mr. Walker's work."
