Pe scurt:De cate ori Simon & Garfunkel s-a rupt, Paul Simon a reusit sa-si formeze/ sa-si consolideze si o cariera solo, iar fiecare dintre albumele aparute sub numele lui au demonstrat pe mai departe imensul sau talent de compozitor.Graceland pune la bataie acest talent si aduce alaturi influente/ ritmuri sud-africane care aveau impreuna sa-i castige lui Paul premiul Grammy in acel an. Unul dintre cele mai bune albume ale anilor '80, Graceland lanseaza si un superhit, You Can Call Me All, al carui videoclip face senzatie si datorita aparitiei lui Chevy Chase intr-o postura amuzanta. Ar fi fost oarecum redundant sa postez mai jos aceasta melodie care de-a lungul timpului a atins probabil majoritatea urechilor umane, asa ca am ales o alta care pe mine ma binedispune de fiecare data...Me
