I’ve already posted my review of Paul Simon’s So Beautiful Or So What. The album jumped right to #1 on my list of the year’s albums and has remained there ever since.
Revisiting it four months later, I wouldn’t change a word of that review. In fact, this album has grown even richer over time. A couple of tracks that I hadn’t fully grasped during my first listens have settled in and become familiar.
Musically and lyrically, this is one of Simon’s most assured works and an amazing achievement this late in his storied career.
