That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be

Originally released on Elektra 45724. This quietly angry song was the first time that most of us had heard from Carly Simon, one of the vanguard singer/songwriters of the early 1970's. This is a like-new copy of the first pressing of these two Simon classics on the original, more artsy "spun gold" label, in its original, equally cool Elektra Records factory sleeve.
