What started as a suggestion for Paul Simon to play a concert in New York's Central Park blossomed, on September 19, 1981, into a full-blown Simon and Garfunkel reunion after an 11-year hiatus, and now proves a priceless snapshot of two of America's greatest folk-rock performers. (It's also the rightful bookend to Simon and Garfunkel's acoustic Live from New York City, 1967.) Performed with a who's-who of East Coast session aces before a record-setting crowd of half-a-million fans, the Concert in Central Park finds its stars just shy of their 40th birthdays and very much in their primes, their voices sweet and pure and their playing relaxed, perfectly in tune and in synch. The show features a mix of S&G and solo Simon tunes, including all the songs that appear on the CD, with the addition of a reprise of "Late in the Evening" and the first live performance of Simon's "The Late Great Johnny Ace". This is classic material from start to finish, 87 minutes of unmitigated beauty. --Michael Mikesell

Legends is one of the most musically accomplished supergroups of all time. With Eric Clapton on guitar Joe Sample of The Crusaders on keyboards virtuoso saxophone player David Sanborn and super session players Steve Gadd on drums and Marcus Miller on bass both of whom have done time in Clapton's band the group's pedigree is extraordinary. The Legends band was put together by Marcus Miller for a European tour in 1997. They never made an album and this concert at Montreux is the only record of their stunning collaboration. The music is an intoxicating blend of jazz blues and rock which gives each of the players a chance to shine but also emphasizes the wonderful chemistry they create as a group. Tracklist: 1. Full House 2. Groovin' 3. Ruthie 4. Snakes 5. Going Down Slow 6. The Peeper 7. In Case You Hadn't Noticed 8. Third Degree 9. First Song / Tango Blues 10. Put It Where You Want It 11.
