Paul Simon Playlist
The Essential Paul Simon Playlist: The 59th Street Bridge Song, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard, The Only Living Boy in New York, 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover, Flowers Never Bend With the Rainfall and more
Earlier this year, Paul Simon teamed up with Malcolm Gladwell to write an audiobook of his best songs. Of course, the book was five hours long, because how do you talk about Simon’s career in the course of an hour? You could spend your whole life rummaging through Simon’s catalog and still not have heard everything.
