Review: Paul Simon delivers a commanding incantation at Disney Hall
""Seven Psalms" belongs alongside David Bowie's "Blackstar" or Johnny Cash's "American Recordings" albums in the canon of wide-lens looks at the mystery of late life."
"The set opened with a full run of "Seven Psalms," a short yet profound song cycle in which a dense, ornamental acoustic guitar figure recurs over several songs in an intimate valediction."
Paul Simon initially announced his farewell tour in 2018, marking what many believed to be his final performances. However, in 2023 he released a new album titled "Seven Psalms" and launched a new tour, including multiple nights at the Disney Concert Hall. This tour provided fans a chance to reconnect with Simon, featuring both new material and classic songs from his extensive career. The final show highlighted his skillful performance, opening with a series of songs from "Seven Psalms," which presents a thoughtful reflection on late life.
