Black coffee in my cup. Not very awake yet.

I think they have the most amazing harmonies, and Paul Simon alone is one of my favorite songwriter/singers ever. He re-invents himself every few years, even now. I listen to his music often, from all the eras, although I do have a particular fondness for the "Graceland" period. I love African rhythms. Did you have an idea even then that their music was something special, or were they just two among many?
