This is a fine Simon CD which I hope is not really his last...
However, it does not, as I discovered when listening to my son's download. include the several extra live tracks that one gets from the streamed version. Otherwise it's one of Paul's finest, with intelligent, thoughtful songs well arranged, and beautifully performed.
It's right up there with Hearts and Bones and Still Crazy After All These Years, and if it has to be, a great way to go out in style, with grace.

A great movie nearly sabotaged by its Blu-ray presentation, so buy the DVD!
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is a superbly compressed film that is probably gibberish to those who haven't experienced either the Le Carre book, or the 8-part BBC series where Sir Alec Guinness inhabited the role of George Smiley.
I liked the movie because I have done both, but was disappointed in the intrusive and obstructive mechanics of the Blu-ray disc's access menu, and one of my players would not go beyond the main menu. Why does Hollywood screw up Blu-ray releases with so much gratuitous crap (previews, especially), difficult navigation, and other intrusions into the movie experience? What's next, stale popcorn?
That said, it's a good value with the DVD included, and next time, that's probably what I'll watch just to avoid all the Blu-ray hassles!
