from my library (cd)



Not putting links on this one. 36 tracks, nuff said.
Bought this recently as I had no Paul Simon on cd. With 36 tracks here at a single album price, it seemed like a good deal. Not a huge Simon fan, but S&G, yes. I remember the split. I was heartbroken. Hadn't been that crushed since Sonny & Cher called it a day. Followed Paul for quite awhile, but it was never the same. Same with Art. What a duo. Alway thought Art had the better voice. Of course he couldn't write. They needed each other. This album is avery nice compilation of Paul's work. Contains all the hits. Albums pulled from cover all up through that time (albums). I have the first 6 on vinyl, before I abandoned him. Hearing the second disc of this set, I don't think I missed much. Not much on that one that I cared much for after the Graceland stuff. First disc is very good. Favorite choice would be Kodochrome. Have to go way back for that one. I see Paul had a new album just this year and he's still chartin' high. Haven't heard anything from it. Glad to have this one in my collection.
