"You Can Call Me Al" by Paul Simon, and truly the entire "Graceland" album is very special to me. My dad had the Graceland lp, and recorded it onto a casette tape. I only found out much later that he had accidentally recorded side two before side one.
The tape started off with "You Can Call Me Al," with its distinctive trumpet and synthesizer background. We listened to this tape everywhere - vacations, trips to the store....We had it before my brothers were born, and continued to listen to it after they were. I remember all three of us bouncing in the backseat, singing along to the song, and all the other songs on the album. Good times.
We still have the tape somewhere, but now I have the entire album on iTunes. How technology has changed, just in the last ten years!
