Seven Psalms - Paul Simon [CD]

This is Paul's first album of original material in seven years and it's unlike anything he's done before, both lyrically and musically. At 81 years old he has delivered a late-career masterpiece. It is an extraordinarily beautiful and moving record, built around Paul's acoustic guitar and his vocals with minimal additional accompaniment. The album runs 33 minutes and is presented as one continuous piece that breaks down into seven 'segments' or 'movements'.
