Just thought I´d put this cover of Graceland up, I´ve been listening to it for months and can´t get enough of it! Love this guy...

A friend of mine suggested this artist to me a while back. He got a lot of influence from artists such as Bob Dylan and Paul Simon, and his one song, I think "King of Spain," featured a reference to Dylan´s "Boots of Spanish Leather." If anything, I respect the guy´s choice in music idols.

I like it. He does a good job only with his guitar and distinctive voice. Here is his live performance of the song. It shows how great the song "Graceland" is. Nice how he thanks Paul Simon at the end of the song.

And in "The Gardner" he ends each chorus with "babe" which reminds me of "It ain´t me babe"...

Seen him live in Dublin and he played Graceland.. at the end he said "thank you god for Paul Simon" I had to let out a cheer!

Thanks Roisin, that´s a really great version we can enjoy while Bodo waits for Garfunkel´s version...
