Did anyone hear Tony Fenton on Today FM today,where he interviewed Carly Simon,and amongst other things,asked her who was You're so Vain' about.

She didn't give much away,but kept insisting 'the answer is there right in front of you'

She denied it was about David Geffen,and other than that kept it shush.

She did say that the person came into her party she had at her house in 1972 and watched himslef in the mirror as he entered,throwing his (apricot?) scarf around himslef. Carly said to her friend 'he thinks he's walking onto a yacht'.

Other than saying 'it's right there for you to see',she didn't reveal the subjects identity.

Myself,I think it's about Mike Coffey. I don't know who that is,but,as she says herself,' I had some dreams there were clouds in Mike Coffey...'

Mick is on the record as well which would add to " it's right there on front of you" remark.

By the way Martin, Apricot was the "in" colour at the time. I had Apricot  jeans a bit like pale salmon. Colours were geting away from the very Glary hippy shades at the time

Jaz, I don't remember having that much hair Pogue but I did wear my hair more like this video back in the day.

Here's TULL from "Songs from The Wood" which I think is his best album. I actually took Pogue to this concert when he came to Cleveland. We were blasted outta of it....BRILLLIANT.
