Album Notes & Community Reviews
Released during the peak of her commercial success and following her marriage to James Taylor, Carly Simon's fourth studio album is a polished, joyful collection of soft rock and folk-pop. Driven by the massive hit 'Haven't Got Time for the Pain' and her duet with Taylor on 'Mockingbird', the record exudes a warm, domestic bliss and highly sophisticated studio craftsmanship.
