Paul Simon Solo 101
A Listmania! list by Marc-Olivier Girard

1. Graceland (Expanded) by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"The masterpiece. The title track was built from an african drum beat, has a country feel, talks about Elvis' home and America, love and universal redemption, backed with the Everly Bros. Alleluia !"

2. There Goes Rhymin' Simon by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"Timeless classic from 1973. Fantastic collaborations, melodies and atmospheres (New Orleans) + the unusual hits (Loves Me Like A Rock, backed by a gospel quartet). Surprised he's done Graceland ?"

3. Paul Simon (Expanded) by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"A very strong album, with his best as a guitarist. Here, a few immersions into exotic sounds (Me and Julio, Mother and Child Reunion), amazing songs (Duncan), and even Grappelli is on board"

4. Rhythm of the Saints (Expand) by Paul Simon

5. Still Crazy After All These.. by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"Thirthysomething Simon still expands his horizons, with strings and horns. A few classics (title track and 50 Ways) have emerged from this 1975 'romantic disillusionment' based-album"

7. You're the One by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"The 'comeback' album from 2000, constructed with 3 master drummers and guitars, with North African influences. Inventive + good grooves. Low-key, well-underrated and unknown to the mortal man"

Used & New from: CDN$ 10.70

8. Songs from..Capeman (Expand) by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"Biggest flop from Simon. Still, his most ambitious musical effort: '50 and doo-wop sounds he has always loved + carribean influences. Unusual in music and subject-matter. Caution !"

9. Surprise by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"Simon collaborated with Brian Eno here, to explore another galaxy. Unfortunately, it sounds mostly cerebral, labored and without many catchy melodies. But it has several brilliant moments"

10. Hearts and Bones (Expanded) by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"For the most part, this 1983 album now sounds dated (which is unusual in Simon's case), and not that well-recorded. His best effort lyrically"

11. One Trick Pony (Expanded) by Paul Simon

The list author says:
	"The soundtrack of a forgotten movie Simon made in 1980. Famoulsy known for its hit Late in the Evening, but the rest is now devoted to hard-core fans"
