There was never more care given to me. Never more respect, and I can surely say that I would never have become a performer, had it not been for that 1st call from Jac, after listening to my 1st little demo cassette." ~ Carly Simon on Jac Holzman

Carly and I created a lifelong friendship born from our 70's music collaboration. I think the good and positive effect we had on each other resulted in records that were gifts for Carly fans and music lovers the world over." ~ Jac Holzman on Carly Simon

We want to be a part of this mutual admiration society. When Elektra Records’ founder Jac Holzman signed Carly Simon to his label in 1970, it was the beginning of an extraordinary friendship. Their story unfolds in a new collection of songs chosen and sequenced by Holzman. He follows the arc of Simon’s meteoric rise with a mix of hits and deep cuts selected from the singer songwriter’s 1st 3 albums, including a previously unreleased demo of "Alone" and Simon’s rendition of John Prine’s "Angel From Montgomery" which is now streaming.
