I remember looking at my fathers green glowing dial on his amplifier/receiver dead on, not more than a foot and a half off the ground, listening to Paul Simon's "There goes Rhyming Simon" album, and being blown away. I think it's one of the most American albums ever made and about as good as any Beatles album. It deeply impressed me as a child, and I still love it today.

What a great album, thanks for sharing. I'm a big Paul Simon fan. I recently made a post about hiking to Machu Picchu and listening to a Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan song (I saw you replied to it). What I didn't mention in the post is that after that song I let "shuffle" pick one more song before turning off my iPod. -It landed on "The Obvious Child" by Paul Simon. It was also an amazing experience. -He is fantastic.
