the greatest band never to do any real gigs, and one of the most underrated Paul Simon albums ever. Love Richard Tee on this...RIP

[montibass]

The band he opens for (see description) is the B52's

[ter521fad]

@montibass That's right! I'd forgotten about that.

[ter521fad]

I wish I'd been able to see this band live. Boy, do I ever! But, to quote from another Paul Simon song, I wasn't "born at the right time."

Fun lyrics:

"Once I was crazy and my ace in the hole

Was that I knew that I was crazy

So I never lost my self-control

I just walk in the middle of the road

I sleep in the middle of the bed

I stop in the middle of a sentence"
