you bought that one on DVD?

Hm, I remember I transfered this documentation from VHS tape to VCD...12 years ago or so. (I only remember because of the dutch subtitles). I got the tape from another dutch fan, he is still active from time to time.

BTW: I also remember that years ago (if not a decade now) the following thing should have appeared on DVD (we already saw a cover)
"Born At The Right Time" Documentation - 2 hours

I haven't ever seen that one. Wow.


What I really liked about the "born at the right time" documentation was the part when he was travelling in China

And the 1988 documentation is great because you see his childhood house. Has anyone ever visited that area?

The "Born at the right time" documentation was on austrian television in the nineties. I remember beeing very excited about it, because pre-internet you got very few information about PS at that time. I still have a VHS with the german synchronisation but I don´t think it is watchable anymore.

Bodo, do you mean his house in Forest Hills, NY? A few people (originally from the S&G message board) visited there when they all met up in New York in (I think) 2008. There's a photo somewhere, I'll look for it later and post it.

From memory Nancy and Barb from this forum were among those who went and had photos taken outside Paul's house and spoke to the new residents. I have a video recorded of it which was uploaded on you Tube by Joan . Don't have the link though!

Very interesting - Was Paul Simons mother really living there until 2007?
It is funny that 'normal' people are living there nowadays.you know, Elvis birthplace is a little museum now. I wonder what with other childhood homes happened (Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan...)

Bodo, Paul's mother was not living in Kew Gardens in 2007. His parents had moved to Eaglewood Cliffs NJ and were living there when his father died in 1995.

Oh I did not know that. Maybe I mixed that up when reading something years ago - maybe Art Garfunkels parents have been living there much longer?

Maybe Bodo, you are remembering in the 1988 video when Paul drives past Art's childhood home he mentions that some of the Garfunkel family were still living there.

Yes, I remember that from the documentation (Petr posted now)
Anyway I thought it have been his own parents.
