Sparacio identified the theme of the album to be an "affirmation" of Taylor's life at the time, being newly married to Carly Simon and off drugs, and a realization that if he was going to cope with his life he needed to turn inward.

As an album, Hello Big Man was all over the place: reggae tracks recorded with Sly & Robbie, very early 80s world music experiments, slick MOR. Its one undisputed gem is It Happens Every Day, a careworn song about divorce, set to music that, beneath the 80s veneer, is like a lush late-50s ballad.
Simon has hardly been idle in her 70s – a second volume of memoirs was published in 2019 – but her last collection of new songs, the Latin-flavoured This Kind Of Love, came out 13 years ago. Hold Out Your Heart is warm and sweet, enough to make you wish she would release more.
Hotcakes saw a pregnant Simon beaming from the cover. The contents are melodically rich, but the lyrics about domestic bliss are a bit runny: you miss the steely eyed narrator of You’re So Vain. The nailed-on, mid-70s soft-rock anthem chorus of Haven’t Got Time For The Pain, however, is fantastic.
The Come Upstairs album was a concerted effort by Simon to embrace new wave. Some of it is bizarre – in the unlikely event you want to hear a Carly Simontrack that sounds a bit like Devo, hasten to Them – but the vaguely Springsteen-esque Jesse is a triumph: killer chorus, economical storytelling.
Simon has released more Great American Songbook standards than original material in recent years, but her own writing is as sharp as ever. Or possibly even sharper, as evidenced by the chanson-like, savagely funny We Your Dearest Friends, on which a tableful of dinner-party guests relentlessly trash an absent acquaintance.
Simon’s eponymous 1971 debut is an artist finding her feet, tending towards country-ish arrangements which don’t suit her voice. But her first hit single is great: a surging, epic, wary depiction of marriage – “the couples cling and claw and drown in love’s debris” – from a woman declining to say “I do”.
Better Not Tell Her, the hit from Have You Seen Me Lately, was Simon in full-on, post-divorce lock-up-your-husbands mode, but its closing track was something else: a beautifully observed, subtly orchestrated, gorgeously bittersweet song about a couple facing life together after their children leave home.
Umpteen artists pivoted towards disco in the late 70s, but Carly Simon did it with particular style, as evidenced by the Arif Mardin-produced Tranquillo: five minutes (in its 12in mix) of supremely funky bass, spiralling vocals, soaring choruses and, improbably, a lyric about trying get a small child to go to bed.
The standout title track of a very patchy album, Playing Possum is a perfect example of Simon’s ability to incisively skewer the boomer generation at various points in their history. A depiction of a former 60s radical now comfortably settled, its concluding question – “Are you finally satisfied?” – seems to be as directed at the narrator as at her...
Nine months after her debut, Anticipation was a vast leap forward, defining Simon as a plain-speaking, distinctly un-hippy-ish, very New York brand of confessional singer-songwriter: the title track found her waiting for her current boyfriend, Cat Stevens, to show up, while already consigning their relationship to history: “These are the good old d...
Carly Simon und der Musiker James Taylor, den Simon nach einer Show in der New Yorker Carnegie Hall 1971 kennengelernt hatte, waren im Mai 1971 bereits ein Paar und heirateten 1972. Das Paar hat zwei Kinder, Sarah Maria „Sally“ (* 1974) und Benjamin Simon Taylor (* 1977), beide ebenfalls Musiker. Die Ehe wurde 1983 geschieden. In Interviews gab Simon an, keinen Kontakt mehr zu Taylor zu ...
From 1972 to 1979, Simon sang backup vocals on the following James Taylor songs and studio albums: "One Man Parade" from One Man Dog (1972). "Rock 'n' Roll Is Music Now", "Let It All Fall Down", "Me and My Guitar", "Daddy's Baby", and "Ain't No Song" from Walking Man (1974). "How Sweet It Is" from Gorilla (1975). "
The song was also recorded by American singer-songwriters Carly Simon and James Taylor, appearing on Simon's 1978 album, Boys in the Trees. Following the smash success of the album's first single "You Belong to Me", Devoted to You was released as the second single, and it also became a Top 40 hit.

This album captures Taylor at a particular juncture; he was newly married to singer-songwriter Carly Simon, was a proven superstar, and he was also still battling his addiction to heroin.
