Excuse if this has been posted; so many these days. But this is, by far, the best I have read:

"It should be noted that, ever since he conjured the incisive opening lines "Hello darkness, my Old friend/ I´ve come to talk with you again," Simon has been America´s finest lyricist. Even Dylan and Springsteen can´t match him for subtlety of metaphor, richness of imagery and economy of language . . . . His best since "Graceland"? Nah. It´s even better. ` Buffalo News

So imagine the link from Bridge to Graceland to SBOSW. What an amazing career!

This is excellent! Makes me so proud to be a Buffalonian that I sent this journalist an e-mail.
