Was it really the tail-end of the 60s when Simon gave us this continuation of Bookends?, an album of a similar feel. After he parted from Garfunkel, Simon wrote songs without having to consider two-part harmonies, and this in turn gave his music a freer, less folk rock flavour. 'American Tune' remains one of his greatest compositions and would make a better alternative to 'America The Beautiful' as the national anthem. Simon had to wait a long time before he topped this record artistically, but he did it in style with Graceland. This is the other Paul Simon album to own.

十代の頃、ジャケットが気に入って買ったな〜！その頃はまだニューオリンズビートとか分からなかったけどこのアルバム聴いてディキシーハミングバーズのハーモニーにびっくり！私の、ニューオリンズへの道筋は、此処から始まったんです。マッスルショールズのミュージシャンも良い仕事してます。0 people agree with this review

中学生の頃に聞いてたときは、Ｍ１やＭ６くらいしか良さが分からなくて。他は、なんだかへんてこりんな音楽でイマイチだなと不満してました。ガキには分からないよね、この良さは。ゴスペルの味わい深さや各楽器の絶妙なバランスの上で歌われる各曲は実に心地よいです。名盤ですね。0 people agree with this review

前作（ポール・サイモン）とはかなりイメージが違う。ブルースやゴスペルにルーツをもつアラバマ州の田舎町のマッスル・ショウルズでのセッションから、ポールの歌唱が上手くマッチしている。ブラス・セクションを使用したり、レゲエのリズムを取り入れたりと、当時からポールは目立たないが、かなり音楽性を先取りしている。またポール自身のプロデュースのセンスはあの鬼才トッド・ラングレンを初め数々のミュージシャンに定評がある。そしてこのアルバムから（コダクローム）が放送禁止になったり、アルバムから5曲もシングル・カットするなど、意見はあったがアルバム、シングルと大ヒットになっている。0 people agree with this review
