If you, like me, spent your childhood with "Mother and Child Reunion", "Love Me Like a Rock", and "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover" playing on the radio because your elders dug them (in my case, my mother), it may come as a shock how good these songs really are. I'm sure there are better compilations of Simon's work out there, but this one does the job of bringing back those '70's summers for me (I don't know why summer, but that's my association), and I think will for others, too. For listeners new to Simon, the infectious music and lyrics that always seem to have just a little more depth each listen are as good an introduction as I can think of.
Somehow mine got scratched when it started Loves me like a rock, one of my favorites and what good is an album if the best song can't play? Was so glad to find this and I have played it for 5 days straight, no scratches. Good thing it doesn't wear down from use.

This is a really good cd for fans of Paul Simon and his 70's & 80's solo material. He is an outstanding songwriter and these songs really showcase his talent. There isn't a bad song on this disk, actually if ebay would let us rate w/ 1/2 stars this would get a solid 4 1/2 from me. My favorite songs by him are on this set, and they include: "Slip Slidin' Away", "Loves Me Like A Rock" & the catchy sing along song "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover". Most of these songs are still being played on classic rock FM radio stations across America and that is a tribute to just how good they really are.
This CD has the best of the thoughtful love songs from Simon. These are great driving songs,quiet, thoughful and relaxing.
