About The Record:
Paul Simon's One-Trick Pony was released concurrently with the film of the same name, in which Simon also starred. Despite their similarities, the album and film are musically distinct: each features different versions of the same songs, as well as certain songs that appear exclusively the album. The album is best known for the Grammy-nominated track Late in the Evening which was a hit for Simon in 1980, peaking at No. 6 in the U.S. Two of the tracks (the title song and Ace in the Hole) were recorded live at the Agora Theatre and Ballroom in Cleveland, Ohio in September 1979. The rest are studio cuts.
