Next error... This picture, taken in 2009 - come on, that can´t be serious.

Is this maybe a pre-production book they show us on amazon? With 10% of wrong information?

I´m still going to buy the book but I sure won´t be taking it as solid fact. I see why his books are unauthorized. Thanks for the info folks.

This is Outrageous, I´m gonna have to figure out a way to get my money back. I feel like a collaboration on this forum is the only way to produce the best Paul Simon biography. Anyone got any celebrities´ numbers for interviews? lol

HA HA HA. That´s suppose to be Paul Simon in 2009! Man, if Paul read this book he may get offended at the part where this guy lists a bunch of artists he likes better than Simon, but at least he can be flattered by the fact that this guy thinks he´s so young.

Look at the reviews for Marc Eliot´s previous books, they are full of complaints of factual inaccuracies

I can´t help but wonder why this guy didn´t just write a Bob Dylan bio. That´s who he seems to Love so much

WOW, thanks for that amazon link. Think that says everything. Never seen a product rated so poor.

So maybe the always mixed up 19 with 20

1987 with 2007 and
1989 with 2009

anyway, with all the other erros, that should not happen in a serious book. To me it seems as if all this has been compiled in a hurry.
