    The ‘friend’ he was referring to turned out to be a connection Simon made because of Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels. During the time that Michaels had stepped away from SNL to produce the short-lived The New Showin 1984, he had brought Heidi Berg from the SNL band to his new project as the bandleader. When the show was canceled, Berg ha...

    When he returned home, he started using all the elements of the tracks that were recorded and building them into songs. “It was very difficult, because patterns that seemed as though they should fit together often didn't,” Simon told The New York Times. “I realized that in African music, the rhythms are always shifting slightly and that the shape o...

    More than three decades later, the album is still hailed as one of Simon’s greatest works. It was on the charts for 97 weeks, peaking at No. 3 on April 4, 1987. Looking back now, the controversies may seem even greater that he went to South Africa when he did, with the end of apartheid finally coming in April 1994. “The intensity of the criticism r...
