| Although ostensibly an album of standards for children, Carly Simon's Into White is designed to be at least as inviting for adult listeners. Featuring musical direction from Simon's son Ben Taylor, who co-wrote the tune "I'll Just Remember You" and sings harmony vocals with his sister Sally Taylor (their dad James Taylor is represented by a warm version of his lullaby "You Can Close Your Eyes"). Into White touches on folk, jazz, and country alongside Simon's standard soft rock. There's even a bossa nova tune, Antonio Carlos Jobim's classic "Manha de Carnaval." Along with these, the Cat Stevens-penned title track, Paul McCartney's "Blackbird," and other pop hits are transformed into quiet, delicate re-arrangements that focus on Simon's fine vocals.

- "Overall, the disc has echoes of Simon's guitar-based singer/songwriter style, but with a more mature atmosphere and attitude." |
