Description: PAUL SIMON - There Goes Rhymin' Simon Limited Edition Numbered Hybrid SACD CMFSA2217 Barcode: TBC SOURCED FROM THE ORIGINAL ANALOGUE MASTER TAPES:HYBRID SACD REVEALS "THOSE NICE BRIGHT COLOURS" Sourced from the original master tapes and housed in mini-LP gatefold packaging, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition hybrid SACD provides a clear, dynamic view of a record nominated for two Grammy Awards and that climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard charts. The expanse and depth of the soundstage, varied textures of the percussion, and natural bloom and decay of individual notes reach demonstration levels. The newly revealed transparency, presence, and immediacy provided by the SACD showcase the scope and craft of Simon's alluring melodies – not to mention the vocal performances that, arguably, remain the album's standout element. Simon's singing hits peaks on There Goes Rhymin' Simon that equal or best those on any of his other works, Simon and Garfunkel included. Assured, natural, and supple, his baritone resonates with immersive realism and extension. At certain times, he lets loose; during others, he becomes a gentle balladeer on par with a prized jazz chanteur. That solo versatility remains staggering. He also receives support on two tracks by the legendary Dixie Hummingbirds. The pairing is nothing short of magical. Hits and singles aside, There Goes Rhymin' Simon stands as a cohesive statement. To quote Rolling Stone critic Stephen Holden, it's "a rich and moving song cycle, one in which each cut reflects on every other to create an ever-widening series of refractions." Indeed, everything looks worse in black and white, and Mobile Fidelity's SACD plays with the greens of summers and those nice bright colours.Track List (LP & SACD) KodachromeTendernessTake Me to the Mardi GrasSomething So RightOne Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's FloorAmerican TuneWas a Sunny DayLearn How to FallSt. Judy's CometLoves Me Like a Rock
