Randy Newman & Paul Simon - The Blues from Newman's 1983 album "Trouble in Paradise".

Trouble in Paradise is the seventh album by American composer Randy Newman. Released four years after his last commercial album, 1979's Born Again, and two years after he composed the original score for the 1981 film Ragtime, it was well-received as a return to form. It spawned the smash hit "I Love L.A." in addition to a duet with Paul Simon on "The Blues."

Viewing it from a musical perspective, it was vastly different from anything Newman had previously created, full of synthesizers, drum loops, and samples. The writing also took a change, somewhat abandoning the country-tinged folkiness of his work in the 70's in favor of somewhat glossy synth pop.

    This was a pretty big hit, but Randy regrets it (finds it mean), and since its been mostly forgotten!
