Paul Simon Still Crazy After All These Years
One of Paul Simon's most mature and sophisticated solo albums, Still Crazy After All These Years (1975) is a beautifully crafted blend of folk, jazz-pop, and introspective songwriting. This is the album where Simon moved confidently beyond the shadow of Simon & Garfunkel and proved himself as one of the finest lyricists of his generation.
The title track sets the tone immediately reflective, slightly ironic, and emotionally complex. The arrangements are elegant and understated, with jazz textures and warm production throughout.
Standout moments include:
"50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" with its instantly recognisable Steve Gadd drum groove, one of Simon's biggest solo hits.
"My Little Town" the Simon & Garfunkel reunion track, darker and more intense than many remember.
"Gone at Last" (with Phoebe Snow) soulful and uplifting.
"Have a Good Time" and "Slip Slidin' Away" (in some editions) continue the thoughtful, melodic tone.
Lyrically this is adult songwriting at its finest themes of ageing, regret, resilience, and quiet survival. The production (by Paul Simon and Phil Ramone) is clean and spacious, giving the album a timeless feel.
A cornerstone 70s singer-songwriter LP and essential for fans of thoughtful, literate rock.
