Carly Simon: Into White
CML call number: CD POPULAR Simon
Contents: Into white -- Oh! Susanna (Foster) -- Blackbird -- You can close your eyes (with Ben Taylor, Sally Taylor) -- Quiet evening -- Manha de carnaval (theme from "Black Orpheus") (Bonfá) -- Jamaica farewell (Burgie) -- You are my sunshine (Davis/ Mitchell) -- I gave my love a cherry -- Devoted to you/ All I have to do is dream (Bryant) -- Scarborough Fair -- Over the rainbow (Arlen/ Harburg) -- Love of my life (Simon) -- I'll just remember you (Taylor/ Saw).
Chuck Arnold wrote in People: "The best moment on the new Carly Simon album — a tranquil collection of covers that play like lullabies for grown-ups — is her dreamy version of 'You Can Close Your Eyes,' a 1971 tune by her ex-husband James Taylor. Fittingly, her two children with Taylor, musicians Ben and Sally, join in a nice display of family harmony. Elsewhere, Simon puts a soothing spin on songs by the Beatles ('Blackbird'), the Everly Brothers ('Devoted to You'/ 'All I Have to Do Is Dream') and Cat Stevens (the title track), while 'Quiet Evening,' one of two originals, keeps the peace" ("Picks & Pans: Music," 1/15/07, p. 39).
