Download Boys in the Trees: A Memoir AudioBook Free
Simon's memoir unveils her remarkable life, beginning with her storied youth as the third daughter of Richard L. Simon, the cofounder of posting giant Simon & Schuster; her musical debut as fifty percent of The Simon Sisters, doing folk sounds with her sister, Lucy, in Greenwich Village; to a meteoric single career that would bring about 13 top 40 hits, including the number-one tune "You're So Vain". She was the first artist in history to win a Grammy Award, an Academy Award, and a Golden Globe Award, for her song "Let the River Run" from the movie Working Female. The memoir recalls a youth enriched by music and culture but also one shrouded in secrets that would eventually rip her family apart. Simon brilliantly catches moments of creative inspiration, the sparks of sounds, and the reviews behind writing "Expectation" and "WE'VE No Secrets", among numerous others. Passionate entanglements with some of the most famous men of your day fueled her confessional lyrics as well as the unraveling of her storybook relationship to James Taylor. Includes original music composed especially for the program by Carly Simon and Teese Gohl plus a previously unreleased reward tune from Carly Simon.
