Review & Description
2011 two CD collection from the Pop/Rock icon. In a distinguished career spanning over five decades, Paul Simon has established himself as one of the best songwriters of the Rock era. As one-half of Simon & Garfunkel, his songs became cultural mileposts in the Folk-Rock movement, and beyond. As a solo artist, Paul Simon continued on a path of critical and commercial success, including numerous Top Ten hits and awards. As his career continued to flourish, he began experimenting with different styles of music, including Reggae, Brazilian, and music from South Africa. In 1986, he was awarded his second Album Of The Year Grammyr for Graceland, his biggest-selling solo album to date, which combined South African influences with catchy melodies. Paul Simon's continuous reinvention has made him, after 50 years, one of America's most beloved musical gems and a continuing voice in popular music.
