Paul was already well known and famous and had put out quality albums in the '70s before he did Graceland. He had some troubles in the early '80s trying to get hits or do a good album. His 1982 album was a flop. However he had some momentum from reuniting with Art Garfunkel In 1981. Unfortunately they are volatile pair so the plans were scrapped for a reunion tour. Later they did a tour in 1993 but it went so bad that they end the tour early stating that both could not work with each other. Still Paul Simon's Graceland revitalize his career even though he had no more hits after 1986.

Dave just being Dave that entrance priceless he’s steals the show with don’t call me Al love, every award show needs at least one Dave dance of happiness.

Susanna Hoffs, baby!!! AGELESS!!!!

I was born the year Simon and Garfunkel broke up, and grew up listening to all these wonderfully haunting songs on the radio. Some memories are better than others, but all your songs speak to me in some way. Thank you for creating them, and allowing them to speak for us.

Bridge Over troubled Water is one of the greatest song about love that didn't even mention the word love.

Paul Simon Shared his awesome talents of writing, performing, and entertain the masses of music lovers, for many decades ..... We were the LUCKY ones , and his gift to fans all over the globe, will carry on, and continue to touch MANY more .... for eternity .... "Thank you" Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I first heard TSOS when I was around 17 years old (1991), the music touched me despite I didn't understand the meaning. Years later a dear fried gave me "You're The One" album, and I began the endlessness journey of meeting my own soul while listening to Paul's numbers. Thank you Paul... you're the one.

Paul's musicality is progressing on its own path. I get the impression that he becomes more sophisticated and attractive every time I listen to him.

Susanna Hoffs killed it. Billy Porter knocked it out of the park.

This will be the best thing I've seen on KZread this month. Thank you.

He was brought to me as a 12 year old when Graceland was released. Since then his poetic melodies have pulled me out of dark spaces and put me into greatful places. God bless you Paul Simon. Cecelia heard you.

Garth and Tricia even had Dustin Hoffman singing!

One of the greatest of all times. We love you and may your songs continue to bring smiles, hope and joy to our hearts always

American Tune was amazing and loved how Paul did Sounds Of Silence hit the heart and soul.❤

Jesussss! I am speechless!

Bonnie Raitt, Rhiannon Giddons, Billie Porter, Stevie, Take 6 and Dave Matthews incredible performances from all of them. But of course the brilliant Paul Simon has still bringing joy and love to the stage.

All of the performances should be available to download! I loved ALL of them! Especially Bonnie and Brad, Stevie, Dave Matthews, The Jonas Brothers, Take 6 and I love to see Garth and Trisha together!

PAUL SIMON MUITO ALÉM DO TEMPO, MUITO A FRENTE DE SEU TEMPO. MÚSICO, COMPOSITOR, POETA E CANTOR ´É E SEMPRE SERA IINCOMPARÁVEL..

A nice Jewish boy born in Newark who grew up in Queens made good. 💙

I adore this man! Much more so than artie Thank you Paul Simon for your voice which is amazing. Your wife Eddy is a great woman taking care of you Sir 💙

Great music, great artists. So fresh that it is hard to believe it is half a century old. Thank you. 🎉👍

A great tribute. Well deserved!

Kind of a shame that none of the great music Paul has made in the last 37 years was played. We always tend to ignore the later work of great artists in favour of endless nostalgia of our youth.

All of the artists were wonderful, but top of the bill was Ms. Rhiannon Giddens....

This was absolutely amazing beautiful wonderful!! It made me remember why I love ❤️ music. Very inspiring!!!!!

Just my opinion, and I may be biased, but Paul performing Sounds of Silence was the highlight of the night

Billy Porter and Dave Mathews were stellar!

Such a great way to start my Friday. Love this talented man and all his genius!

Thank you to Billy Porter for taking us to church!

The best of the best. Thank you Paul for the music.

Hes still an amazing guitarist!!

I really loved the tribute but when I didn't see even see a recorded performance or speech from Artie, it just feels, as a Simon and Garfunkel fan, very very sad. I hope one of these days they get back together to do even a simple show, and Artie reciting to Paul his poem "The Funeral" and performing together their signature "Old Friends".
