 | As some of you have seen in my discussions on this forum with Bodo, Paul Simon has achieved sustained popularity in the UK - charting higher in the charts than he does even in his native US.
Part of this could be attributed to the champion of MOR music, BBC Radio 2.
Paul Simon and Simon & Garfunkel have recently charted highly in a recent listeners poll of favourite number 1 albums:

The list can also be seen here: http://www.theofficialcharts.com/info-press_albums 50.php
Paul is also mentioned in Patrick Humphries summary of the decades on the same site:
