Paul Simon - Full Concert at Austin City Limits, The Moody Theater

Venue: ACL Live at The Moody Theater Location: Austin, Texas, United States Date: May 12, 2016

In 2016, during the performance at the Moody Theater for "Austin City Limits," Paul Simon was at a significant point in his career. This live recording coincided with the release of his most recent album, "Stranger to Stranger," which had come out just a month earlier, in April 2016. The album showcased Simon's continued innovation and experimentation with sounds, incorporating a blend of folk, world music, and electronic elements. Notably, "Stranger to Stranger" received critical acclaim and was nominated for a Grammy Award. The Austin performance captured Simon's introspective songwriting style and engaging stage presence, demonstrating his enduring relevance in the music scene even decades after the peak of his early career with Simon & Garfunkel. This concert also served as part of his farewell tour, marking a reflective chapter in his storied musical journey.
