Paul Simon Details 'Broken' Friendship with Art Garfunkel in New Documentary: 'We Had an Uneven Partnership'
"That was a real first friendship," Paul Simon says of former bandmate Art Garfunkel in MGM+'s 'In Restless Dreams: The Music of Paul Simon.'
#GreatAlbums1980s - #PaulSimon – Graceland (1986). Simon defied an Apartheid-era boycott to work with South African musicians on his most successful album. “The Boy in the Bubble,” “Diamonds on the Souls of Her Shoes” and “Homeless” (the last two cowritten with South African legend Joseph Shambalala) were infectious hybrids of American and African forms. Elements of mbaquanga and isicathamiya – the complex harmony of collaborators Ladysmith Black Mambazo – informed the music.
"Late in the Evening" is a song by American singer-songwriter #PaulSimon. It was the lead #single from his fifth studio album, #OneTrickPony (1980), released on #WarnerBrosRecords. His first single release for Warner, "Late in the Evening" was released in July 1980 and became a hit on several charts worldwide. In the U.S., the song hit number six on the #Billboard Hot 100. Internationally, the song was a top 20 hit in the #Netherlands, #Belgium, and #NewZealand. https://youtu.be/ilzvuie7Bks
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don’t take my Kodachrome away
What album released so far this year do you have on repeat? Share if you would! Top ten, top five, top three, just one, whatever!
One of the very few things I miss about FB was my semi-regular posts inviting friends and acquaintances to share what they were listening to. I've been turned on to music I otherwise would've missed so I'll try it out here and see what y'all are listening to!
My faves this year have been, in no particular order:
Ric Wilson - Clusterfunk
Carly Rae Jepsen - The Loveliest Time
Caroline Polachek - Desire I Want To Turn Into You
Lydia Loveless - Nothing's Gonna Stand In My Way Again
@heathen Ooo, I love these sort of posts! I keep a list throughout the year for potential Albums of the Year, and I already have 33 albums on there (!). But going through it, I just realized there's only a select few I still actually have on repeat:
Paul Simon lost most of the hearing in his left ear while writing "Seven Psalms." He discussed his feelings about this at a TIFF Q&A for documentary "In Restless Dreams: The Music of Paul Simon. "You know, something happens to you when you have some sort of disability that changes your awareness or changes how you interact with life," he said. The Hollywood Reporter has more.
