Anyone catch that show on Monday night? Some really great talent. I gather it was a re-run from last June, but was really worth seeing, for me at least.

James Taylor, Lyle Lovett, Ladysmith Black Mambazo were all great. Stephen Marley, Marc Anthony, well, depends on your personal taste, I guess. Of course, they all did Simon's stuff, and it was a real walk down memory lane; his stuff spans over 40 years...

Oh, Art Garfunkel played with Simon on "Bridge Over Troubled Waters", but I never once saw either of them look at the other. Seems the Waters may still be Troubled...
