V.A. Sounds of Simon



All of the tracks on this (single or multi volume?) Paul Simon tribute compilation are recordings of independent origin (ROIO) and hence officially unreleased.

Once again Jeffs98119's hobby is our gain as he turns his compiling skills towards another great song-writer, Paul Simon.
(And that's where the complete meltdown of Blogger on May 12th destroyed this already-published post)...

    Very cool - the Dylan series was beyond superlative, this should be either super or lative or even both.

    Keep em coming and don't be stingy baby

    I always liked Paul Simon as a songwriter. It will be interesting to hear how his work is interpreted by these other artists.

    It looks like the start of a good day!

    Thank you!

    I saw a movie where Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly danced together and I commented that Fred was a natural dancer and Gene was a craftsman. I think the same applies to Dylan and Simon.
    Paul Simon has crafted some of the best lyrics ever written but Bob just does it naturally.
    Thanks for the posting.

    Thanks so much. This will be worth it if only for the Tallest Man on Earth. Amazing singer.
    Paul Simon is pretty good too.
