Song History

This song, from Paul Simon's eponymous 1972 album, was an early cover that was dropped from the band's catalog once it had been filled with more originals. It was likely played in 1991 and 1992 more than the handful of known performances listed below.

The song made a surprising comeback at the 2001 Jazzfest show, with Paul Simon taking Dave's place on guitar and vocals. It has been performed just one other time since, at a Dave solo show in 2014, with Simon as a guest.
