Jackeblu	Paul Simon - Graceland I have rediscovered this gem recently. What brilliance. This won best album back in the 80s right? The whole thing is so great. Anyone else agree? Any Paul Simon fans here?

I'm a fan... his lyrics and the mixing of influences is great... and I love the old Simon & Garfunkel albums!

JPW	Graceland is in my opinion the greatest album of the 80s. You cannot beat the level of songwriting and musicianship coming together on one 80s album.

Cheek	I love this album! The drums are so huge and the bass... And the African influences and players/singers give it so much beauty and charm! When I'm listening to it feeling like I was on some kind of journey... ...one of the best albums of all time! Paul Simon
