CARLY SIMON
Into The White (Sony/BMG)
Reviewed by John Sekerka

---

There's Carly on the front cover, looking giddily skyward in a garden of Eden with a mouth full of pearly whites gleaming away. There she is on the inside of the digipack looking blissful as ever - again a perfect toothpaste commercial. Skim the booklet and there are no fewer than five more pictures of Carly looking like someone slipped something rather powerful into her afternoon tea. And hey, how about those tunes? Heavenly, cello driven versions of "Blackbird", "Scarborough Fair", "You Are My Sunshine", "Over The Rainbow", "All I Have To Do Is Dream"... Has Tom Cruise infiltrated the music biz with his scientology gig, or has Carly finally found the right combination of happy pills? No matter, she still looks fan-diddly-tatsic.
