Paul Simon performs live at Central Park on August 15, 1991

16 years ago today on August 15th of 1991, Paul Simon performed live to approximately 750,000 people in New York City's Central Park.

The show was free to all attended and was also broadcast on television. It featured many South African musicians much like his 1986 album Graceland (many of the songs performed were from this album.)

This show was almost 10 years after Simon & Garfunkel's Central Park show in 1981.

Some performances from this show:

"The Obvious Child" (The first song of the set with an intro by NYC mayor at the time, David Dinkins)



"I Know What I Know"



"You Can Call Me Al"
