that would be a shame. paul simon was a big part of my musical education. what high school kid doesn't at some point sit there going "yes! I too am a rock, and an island!"
I remember something about Ed bashing him for doing some kinda tour or something with an African choir. Like he was exploiting them or something. Yes I know Ed recorded with the Walmer HS Choir. Someone must remember this story and the details, I can't recall the specifics. Maybe I shouldn't comment on something I don't know the details of huh.
Yeah...there's a video interview w/ Eddie and Jeff from around the time of Vs where Eddie talks about meeting Paul Simon at that Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary thingy back in 1992. I think he called him a "Little Troll" or something and ripped him for exploiting African music. I think Jeff laughed and sang a verse of "You can Call Me Al" and both Eddie and Jeff called Paul Simon lame.

There's a constant ringing in my ears
Sense of humor's void and numb
And I'm bored to tears.......
