The Rhythm of the Saints

by Paul Simon

Following the massive success of 'Graceland', Paul Simon shifted his global exploration to the polyrhythmic sounds of Brazil with 'The Rhythm of the Saints'. The album utilizes heavily layered batucada percussion to support his highly introspective, poetic pop songwriting, creating a deeply atmospheric and warm tropical journey.
