Карли Саймон начала выступать в фолк-дуэте со своей сестрой Люси под названием Simon Sisters. После того, как Люси вышла замуж, Карли продолжала выступать соло. В 1970 году сингл с ее дебютного альбома "That's The Way I Always Heard It Should Be" вышел на десятую строчку в хит-параде, альбом 1972 года "No Secrets" стал "золотым". В 70-х певица записала несколько альбомов, синглы из которых становились хитами, в 80-х обратилась к мэйнстриму поп-музыки и записала два альбома довоенных бродвейских стандартов. Писала музыку для кино, ее песня "Let The River Run" к фильму "Работающая девушка" получила в 1989 году "Оскара". В фильме о Джеймсе Бонде "Шпион, который меня любил" Карли исполнила песню "Nobody Does It Better". Начиная еще с 80-х годов, Карли Саймон периодически выпускает сборники известных поп-песен, перемежая эти релизы с выходом альбомов собственного сочинения. Будучи талантливой исполнительницей, Карли Саймон всегда превносила новые краски в мелодии, которые, казалось бы, уже давно стали классикой музыки XX века.

Reviews / Amazon.com One of the most popular artists of the early-'70s singer-songwriter explosion, Carly Simon made her reputation by combining radio-friendly musical values with lyrics that tackled issues of romance and family with a frankness that's still disarming. In the time since, she's explored a variety of styles, all of which are represented on this nicely packaged 3 CD, 58-song set, which offers a good overview of her catalog, with a disc of her best-known hits (including "You're So Vain," "That's the Way I've Always Heard It Should Be," "Anticipation," "You Belong to Me," and "Let the River Run"), a disc of ballads, and a disc of rare and previously-unreleased material. - Scott Schinder
CLOUDS IN MY COFFEE 1965-1995 is a career retrospective that includes her greatest hits, new material, live tracks and previously unreleased recordings. Named after a key lyric in her career-defining song "You're So Vain," the three-disc CLOUDS IN MY COFFEE offers an excellent summation of the first three decades of Carly Simon's career. Interestingly, it doesn't engage in the usual historical revisionism concerning said career, and includes a few tracks from her pre-Elektra early years. Foregoing chronological order, the set includes one solid greatest hits disc, another of previously unreleased tracks and rarities, and a third of key album tracks. Some of the choices are a bit odd--nothing from the fine late-'70s album PLAYING POSSUM, for example--but the sequencing does the songs justice and the remastering job is outstanding. The highlight of the new material is a heartbreaking version of John Prine's "Angel From Montgomery" that's among Simon's best and most sensitive covers. Casual listeners might want to stick with one of the single-disc anthologies, but CLOUDS IN MY COFFEE is essential for fans.
