This is scary, Edie I also had Graceland on cassette, but never buhogt the CD. Last night, while working on this blog, I actually went to iTunes and downloaded the whole album. It immediately brought a smile to my face, and I can still picture Paul Simon singing You Can Call Me Al on SNL when the album premiered. Clapton Unplugged is another excellent one. I think I have that CD around here somewhere. I need to put it on my computer playlist.
