| Paul Simon Stranger to Stranger Stranger to Stranger Concord Records 2016 Paul Simon has made some great records in the last 20 years or so, most of which don't seem likely to reach his old audience that still wants the 60s and 70s plus Graceland stuff.

| The Go-Go's Automatic Beauty and the Beat CAPITOL CATALOG MKT (C92) 2016 When this record was new, and I was playing it all the freakin' time, I didn't much care for this song because it wasn't as punchy fast as the other cuts. I was a numbskull that way sometimes.
