INTO WHITE finds classic singer Carly Simon in familiar territory in more ways than one. The album is a showcase for timeless standards, folk and pop songs, picking up from where she left off with MOONLIGHT SERENADE. And stylistically, the album recalls her '70s era acoustic pop moreso than the orchestrated work of her last few albums - a move that feels organic and befits the singer's low, distinguishable vocal style. The line-up of songs is very diverse, much more than your average standards album, featuring The Beatles' "Blackbird" and the Everly Brothers' "All I Have to Do Is Dream," alongside the tropical folk song "Jamaican Farewell," "Oh! Susanna" and "Over the Rainbow." One touching highlight is "You Can Close Your Eyes," a song of former husband James Taylor that includes her two children Ben and Sally.
