Happy Birthday, Paul Simon!
Name: Paul Fredric Simon
Birthdate: October 13, 1941
What do you say about Paul Simon? Two-time Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame member (and rightfully so), multiple Grammy Award winner, guitar player and songwriter extraordinaire, long-time off and on partner of Art Garfunkel...the man truly eludes description.
My favorite Paul Simon song/album? You gotta be kidding. There's no way I can narrow it down. I've loved Paul and his music since I was a teenager and he continues to be a favorite to this day. 
It is amazing to me that he continues to have a successful career long after so many of his contemporaries have hung up their guitars and microphones. Plus, he has the good sense to be able to laugh at himself...a rare quality in a star of his caliber.
His music has touched and influenced my life possibly more than any other musician/songwriter today. You can have your overhyped, overglossied, overplasticed so-called "artists" of today...give me Paul Simon, a guitar, and a microphone.
