This week’s podcast is all about Andrea’s favourite weird little guy and second favourite Paul – Paul Simon!
Andrea takes us through her love of the songwriter’s music, voice and guitar-playing, from Simon & Garfunkel to his big hit album Graceland, and the criticism, cultural boycott and art as politics argument.
We focus on a handful of songs including ‘The Sound Of Silence’, ‘Graceland’, ‘The Obvious Child’, ‘America’ and ‘Diamonds On The Soul Of Her Shoes’.
