Paul Simon – There Goes Rhymin' Simon (RSD Essential Opaque Orange LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Released in 1973 as Simon was hitting his stride as a solo artist following the breakup of Simon & Garfunkel, the album draws deeply from American roots traditions, weaving together New Orleans second-line grooves, gospel, and Southern soul. The Dixie Hummingbirds appear on "Loves Me Like a Rock," grounding the record in a living gospel lineage that gives Simon's pop sensibility real weight and texture.
RSD Essential 041 - ‘There Goes Rhymin' Simon’ is Paul’s Simon’s third solo studio album and one of his most critically acclaimed and beloved releases. Partly recorded at the legendary Muscle Shoals Studio, it shows Paul exploring a variety of musical textures in classic songs like “Kodachrome”, “Take Me To The Mardi Gras”, “Loves Me Like A Rock” and “American Tune.” The album was nominated for Grammy Album Of The Year and this 50th Anniversary RSD Essentials version is pressed on opaque orange vinyl.
