201os - #1 - On April 8, 2011, Paul Simon released his 12th solo studi album, entitled So Beautiful or So What. The disc debuted at #4 on the billboard charts, selling almost 70,000 copies in its first week. The disc also received critical acclaim, with Allmusic giving it 4 ½ star review, while Robert Christgau gave it a grade of A. In addition, Rolling Stone ranked it #3 on its list of the 50 best albums of 2011. Simon went on tour from April to July in support of the album, then after a 2 month break, went back out on the road from October to December. This soundboard recording captures him in during the first leg of his tour, in London at the Itunes Festival on July 1, 2011, a dozen years ago today.

I saw PS on this tour and he was great! I thought I had a complete copy of this show, but not so much. Now I do! Thanks again, G.
I'm a huge Paul Simon fan and hadn't heard of this show - in fact, hadn't heard of an "iTunes Festival" - so thanks a lot for this one !!
@gman - glad I could help complete the show for you. Unfortunately, Never saw Paul Simon. As I wrote in the book, I was too tired/lazy to take the subway 3 stops from my apartment to see him for free in Central Park. Not my brightest moment
Superb Speedy! Thanks for this been playing this one all weekend! Great quality and a great venue! Thank yooooo! [Will post links across as ever]
Hello - the link is dead now I think. If it's possible to repair this it would be great. Looks like a great concert. Thanks, Jerry
new link is up - enjoy
Great - really looking forward to hearing this. Thank you for such a quick response. J
Yeah! this is great. He put together an amazing bunch of musicians for this tour. I didn't go for the album (so beautiful) at the time but hearing some of the tracks live like this began to change my mind. Thanks again. Jerry
