Description
Carly Simon – Boys In The Trees – Vinyl Album
Brand new, never played and still sealed in the factory plastic seal with promo punch in jacket
Elektra Records 1978
Her career revitalized by the success of “Nobody Does It Better,” the theme from The Spy Who Loved Me, Carly Simon returned to record-making with this classy Arif Mardin-produced session, backed by New York’s best studio players (Steve Gadd, Eric Gale, Will Lee, Richard Tee, David Sanborn, the Brecker Brothers, etc.). Simon reached the Top Ten with “You Belong to Me,” a collaboration with Michael McDonald that showed both off at their best, and the album’s other Top 40 single was another duet with husband James Taylor on the old Everly Brothers hit “Devoted to You.” Taylor also turned up writing and singing elsewhere to good effect. But what really made the album a winner was that Simon had had a couple of years to write some strong songs in her unflinching, reflective style, and she continued to explore the loves and mores of her age and class movingly.
