Description
First bar of Late in the Evening, Steve Gadd’s tumbling toms push the horns forward before Simon even opens his mouth. One-Trick Pony is Paul Simon’s 1980 film soundtrack that doubles as a sleek studio set with Phil Ramone’s fingerprints. The title track glides on Richard Tee’s electric piano, while Jonah carries the weary sparkle only New York nights can give. Oh, Marion slips in those sideways rhymes that keep you smirking long after the chorus fades. This pressing lets the band breathe, imaging opens up and the low end sits deeper without smudging the percussion. File it next to Steely Dan for the late-70s studio sheen, but Simon’s warmth keeps the songs human-scale. Session heavyweights Tony Levin and Eric Gale anchor the grooves so the narratives never sag. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Paul Simon records online with us. Lyrics read like short stories, and the band gives them lift. Spin it when the house is quiet and you’ll catch tiny guitar ghosts between the lines. It belongs in the era conversation between Still Crazy and the coming Graceland, a bridge of craft over flash. Add it to your collection today, available online or in our Melbourne record store.
