Boy In The Bubble
Graceland
Crazy Love
American Tune
Rene' & Georgette Magritte with their Dog After the War

BONUS:

Got 8:

Duncan

Slip Slidin Away
Late in the Evening
Diamonds in the Soles …
You Can Call Me Al
Proof
Run Can't Run

 

The Rhythm of The Saints album has stayed in my play rotation pretty consistently since its release. It delivers so many compelling sonic textures, along with exceptional songwriting, instrumentation, engineering, arranging, and performance, that it sounds fresh to my ears and moves me still today....

 

Do you mean:

Can't Run But (?)

 

Paul Simon debut album, 1972.
11 cuts.

 

You don’t care for any other of his releases Alex?

 

Yeah! Of course.
Also like his Hearts and Bones album( and others).

Late Great Johnny Ace. Rene And Georgette Magritte.

Too many ( American) tunes.

 

Heart and Bones
Something So Right
Kodachrome
St. Judy's Comet
Love Me Like A Rock
Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard
Mother and Child Reunion
Train in the Distance
Slip Slidin' Away
Late in the Evening

 

Great list!

 

1. Mother and Child Reunion
2. American Tune
3. 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover
4. Hearts and Bones
5. Train in the Distance
6. René and Georgette Magritte with Their Dog After The War
7. The Boy in the Bubble
8. You Can Call Me Al
9. Graceland
10. Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes

 

Ha - nice intro sentence...

 

Graceland
Kodachrome
The Obvious Child
Hearts and Bones
American Tune
Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard
Mother And Child Reunion
How the Heart Approaches What It Yearns
Old
Father And Daughter

But if "Kathy's Song" qualifies, something gets bumped!

 

Great list! And yea, I’m only counting everything not released under the “Simon & Garfunkel” name, excluding “My Little Town”.

 

So many are great, I’ll have to think on my list. I don’t like the song “Still Crazy ...” though. Most everything else is good to me though, and I agree that “The Rhythm of the Saints” is great/underrated
