I've heard this song, many times before, LOVED It - but did Not Know, it was Paul Simon.In fact I've even hummed along to most of his his but was ignorant of the artist. Well, NOW I Know - he's SUPERB!

At the time Graceland came out they said it was his masterpiece. It introduced African melodies to western music. Western music is still influenced by it. .

[LightninLu]

Agree and disagree, Paul Simon is a GENIUS, but he was a genius long before Graceland. Pretty much everything Simon and Garfunkel put out was all Paul Simon, Garfunkel was really good at harmonizing.

I've always loved this song since the first time I heard it; it's quite unique in its composition . . "that's one way to lose these walking blues .. diamonds on the soles of our shoes ...!" Thanks, Paul

I love this song. Graceland was a masterpiece.

[JohnnieNaked]

If anyone can be classified as a complete GENIUS, it's this man.

The Graceland album was the turning point for Paul Simon. Africa's influence upon his music is still seen today. Bravo for Paul

[JayGOS117]

@JohnJLima Indeed, plus many people have albums by 'Ladysmith' and other African groups from hearing on African music on this album.
