This is a wonderful collection of old standards by Carly Simon. It will be listed under my favorites file.

Like many 70's artist now in their sixties (think Rod Stewart, Barry Manilow, Bette Midler, etc.), Ms. Simon has cut and album of standards instead of producing new original material. Initially, I thought this was a good idea as I liked the "70s" Carly Simon and hadn't heard anything from her in a couple of decades. Unfortunately, she does not have the breath or range to sing these songs properly which are more demanding than her original work. In many songs she almost talks her way through them and simply cannot hold or reach the notes. I prefer to remember the early Carly when her voice was stronger. If you like the material, try Diana Krall or Nora Jones instead.

Everthing is wonderful about this album--beginning with Carly's selection of songs. The arrangements and her styling make for beautiful listening. It seems impossible to tire of this CD. We also enjoyed the interview with Carly about the making of this album. She and Richard Perry have created a masterpiece! The DVD of Carly peforming on the Queen Mary 2 with many of the songs from this album plus a few of her greatest hits, is equally as good. Carly's voice is perfectly suited to the music. I enjoy her music whether she is singing standards or songs she has written.
November 25, 2007I have always loved Carly Simon, and I truly love this CD with her singing the "Standards" from the past!!! The orchestration is wonderful! Carly's voice has matured nicely!!

My mother bought this and I was listening to it because she played it all the time. I was so surprised that I like every song. I never really liked Carly Simon (maybe on Janet's album "All For you" on the song "Son of A Gun") and that made me even more surprised that I liked it. She sings a collection of older songs that older people may remember. I don't remember any of these but I still liked it. I reccomend this if you want to try something different for a change.
