If I was out on Martha’s Vineyard right now, I’d be joining Carly Simon’s 67th birthday celebration (b. 6/25/1945), but I’ll make do with this 1972 Central Park video – she may have been born with with a silver spoon, but she had horrible stage fright – so she didn’t gig often during those early years.
