"You Can Close Your Eyes..."

... and pretend the years didn't have passed by. 'Cause Carly Simon's wonderful voice didn't changed at all. The kids have growned up and they can now join mama singing, but that is just a little detail.

All this album is magnificent. Like we used to say in the old days, there's no need to take up the needle. With 14 tracks covering different genres and lot of them bringing you memories from another places and another times: the fifties (Everly Brothers' "Devoted To You/All I Have To Do Is Dream"), some classic movies (Judy Garland's "Over The Rainbow" from "The Wizard Of Oz", Luiz Bonfa's "Manhã de Carnaval" from "Black Orpheus" or Simon & Garfunkel's "Scarborough Fair" from "The Graduate"), the sixties (Beatles' "Blackbird") and even Carly's personal story, when she was married with James Taylor ("Oh Susannah", "You Can Close Your Eyes").

After the comeback of Cat Stevens, it's comforting to know that old generation's voices are not dead. In fact, they are even more necessary in nowadays, where the good music is so hard to find.
