Paul Simon ~ Slip Slidin' Away You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

i am a big paul simon fan ... but i never liked slip sliding away ... as much as others ...
i loved it when Artie and he sang it together tho ... Colonel Angus may be smelly. colonel angus may be a little rough . but deep down ... Colonel angus is very sweet. | |

I love this song. Live versions are always interesting, he usually builds it up better at the end.
Itunes Originals had a version a few years ago - it might still be there, i don't know - that was almost countrified in sound. Very cool. | |
