The album revisits songs originally written throughout Carly’s extensively long and productive career. With new largely acoustic arrangements, the Calbum was recorded at home on the island of Martha’s Vineyard. Carly’s son Benjamin Taylor was the originator of the idea and Carly willingly (though sometimes hesitatingly) complied and lived up to the dare. Carly, Benjamin and the rest of the producers, known as Paphiopedilium , chose the songs, most of which were Carly’s best-known and commercially successful. In the CD’s generous liner notes is an explanation not only of the word Paphiopedilium , but an explanation of the reworking of each of the songs. Carly hopes that even without these notes, the music will speak for itself.

We are proud to give Carly’s fans old and new, a brand new look at ten of her best loved, well-known songs as well as two never-heard-before surprises.
