In the wake of that project, Simon suffered a long period of writer's block, which was to delay the recording of his next album. Meanwhile, a double album live reunion of Simon And Garfunkel recorded in Central Park was issued and sold extremely well. It was intended to preview a studio reunion, but the sessions were subsequently scrapped. Instead, Simon concentrated on his next album, which finally emerged in 1983 as Hearts And Bones . An intense and underrated effort, it sold poorly despite its...

Another three years passed before Simon returned with Hearts and Bones (October 1983), which did not match his usual level of commercial success. Simon experimented with songwriting styles and became interested in South African music, resulting in Graceland (August 1986), which became his biggest-selling solo album and won him another Album of the Year Grammy. Four years later, he delivered The Rhythm of the Saints (October 1990), which did for Brazilian music what Graceland had done for South African...

Graceland [Bonus Tracks], Paul Simon, Music CD
An inveterate musical explorer, Paul Simon has experimented with elements of gospel, doo-wop, and Inca folk music throughout his 30-year career. But his experiments hit a nerve as never before on this 1986 recording. Simon's use of several South African styles, plus a little zydeco and Mexican rock, helped nurture a mainstream interest in world music that remains strong to this day. Moving beyond appropriation, Simon met the exotic styles halfway, insinuating the rhythms into the mix to create a...

Classic Albums - Paul Simon: Graceland (1997) - DVD in Movies: Musical & Performing Arts
Singer-songwriter Paul Simon had been on the cutting-edge of pop music throughout most of the 1960s and the '70s, first as half of the seminal folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel, and then as a well-received solo artist. But the rise of 1980s rock and new wave saw a decline in Simon's commercial success, and the singer responded by experimenting with different musical styles--most notably, world beat--that culminated in his adventurous 1986 masterpiece GRACELAND. The album's fusion of American folk-rock...
