    └────────┘

     Paul Simon is one of the most successful and respected songwriters of the
     rock era. Rising to fame in the mid-60's, Simon's songs were mature and
     literate, but also melodically engaging, and spoke to the concerns and
     uncertainties of a generation. As the 1960s gave way to the 70's and 80's,
     Simon's work tended to focus on the personal rather than the larger world,
     but he also expanded his musical palette, and helped introduce many rock
     and pop fans to world music.

     Simon designed "In The Blue Light" as a way to focus attention on songs of
     his that he believed never got the acknowledgment they deserved. It's a
     reflective project, so it's fitting that it arrived in September of 2018,
     as Simon was in the process of wrapping up a farewell tour. By their
     nature, farewell tours are exercises in nostalgia, but self-cover albums
     offer an artist an opportunity to surprise. That's an opportunity Paul
     Simon seizes on "In The Blue Light".

     Working with a diverse set of collaborators, including Bill Frisell, Wynton
     Marsalis, and Bryce Dessner of the National, Simon winds up with an
     elastic, elegant album that plays with jazz and chamber music as much as it
     does folk and worldbeat. With the exception of "Some Folks' Lives Roll
     Easy", whose flowing lines now seem abstract thanks to opaque cloisters of
     piano and saxophone, the arrangements aren't radically different, yet the
     execution differs wildly from the previous versions.

     Everything on "In The Blue Light" is deliberate, gentle, and subtle,
     placing as much emphasis on the words and melody as the instrumentation,
     which isn't necessarily the case with the dense original albums. It's
     possible to enjoy "In The Blue Light" as high-end background music, but it
     also rewards close listening, not only because the arrangements invite
     appreciation of the clever song construction but what the song selection
     reveals about what Simon thinks of his own work. Taken on that level, "In
     The Blue Light" shows he has the same affection for deep tracks as many of
     his fans - "One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor", "Some Folks' Lives
     Roll Easy", "Rene and Georgette Magritte with Their Dog After The War", and
     "Can't Run But," all being the relatively better-known songs that would
     snag the curious.

     But it also shows that he thinks 2000's "You're The One" is
     underappreciated. A whopping four songs - amounting to nearly half of "Blue
     Light" - come from "You're The One", including the epic seven-minute
     "Darling Lorraine", where Simon demonstrably acts out the lyrics. Here,
     it's possible to hear the lively wit not just in the song but in the
     performance, revealing that for this singer/songwriter, this is not a
     collection of confessions: this is craft, through and through.
