Carly Simon – You’re So Vain
An evening pause: Performed live in 1987 on Martha’s Vineyard.
Hat tip Alton Blevins, who sent it as a memorial for the passing of Simon’s two sisters last week.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
I always think of that as the sour grapes song: “you probably think this song is about you” . . . Well, isn’t it?
“you probably think this song is about you” . . . Well, isn’t it?”
Irony: it’s what’s for dinner.
What does M.J. think about it ?
The front of her “Playing Possum” album was ALWAYS facing out from my LP collection shelf.
Can’t recall a tune recorded on it. Life was good.
