He's awesome. Maple and I saw him in Central Park some years back. He was great. Chevy Chase came out and did "You Can Call Me Al" with him too...

I'm a big fan of his work with music from other cultures. That's what I was listening to this morning.

I also like the album "Negotiations and Love Songs"

I liked him when he was with Art Garfunkel but I don't care that much about his music today.

Me, too. Negotiations and Love Songs is one of his best albums. Rhythm of the Saints is great, too.

Saw him live at the Shakopee Downs in Shakopee, MN a few years back... with Bob Dylan. They played a few songs together, too.

Thanks, too. I was thinking about my former senator. I didn't always agree with his vote, but he has a great mind. Sorry to see him retire.

Paul Simon is great, great, great! He's been soo prolific throughout his career, you gotta give him his props. My favorite bassman, Tony Levin, played on alot of his classic hits. You old coots who thought Paul was washed up after breaking up with Art should by some new CDs!!!

My older brother was the leader on the light crew for Paul Simons Concert in Central Park. Mom Freaked out when she saw his name on the credits at the end of the video!! She still shows it to her freinds when they are over for a visit. Streamweaver

We went to the Goo Goo Dolls concert in Berkeley last Friday night (great show!). During one pause between songs, the lead singer dude said, "Now I'm going to sing 'xx,' which is another depressing song. I guess I'm kind of known for writing depressing songs. Paul Simon did OK writing depressing songs. Of course, he's a whole lot f---ing better than I am!"
