Grizzly Bear, "Mother and Child Reunion" (Paul Simon) From April's Paul Simon tribute show at BAM, this excellent cover — which recasts Simon's 1973 original basically as a Grizzly Bear song — sort of makes us wish Vampire Weekend would ditch Graceland and buy a couple of Grizzly Bear albums.

Last night in my local area, PBS hosted the first Library of Congress Gershwin Award, which was presented to Paul Simon. Watching the musical guests honor Simon by singing his songs gifted me with two Ah-Ha moments: Simon wasn't being honored for his singing, his hits, or his record sales. He was being honored as a song writer. He received the honor not because he wrote hits but because his lyrics...

Wow, there was a time when Bob Dylan looked like this! I just happened to see this picture with a Guardian report about Dylan's Tell Tale Signs double album coming out in October. Dreamin' of You, one of the tracks...
There is no doubt in my mind, and it was backed up by the press release, a major influence in Joel Harrison’s musical career is Paul Simon. This CD is packed with Simonesque style. I happen to be a big fan of Paul Simon, so this CD fits right into my world. Joel Harrison uses a [...]

I've been pretty obsessed with everything Grizzly Bear lately, motivated in part by the new song they debuted on Letterman last week , and by the fact that I'll see them perform in less than 24 hours in Chicago's Grant Park . In additon to playing Yellow House and the two new songs on repeat, I keep returning to this heartrending Paul Simon cover that the band performed live at a Simon tribute in NYC...
