Paul Simon's Concert in the Park

Paul Simon's Concert in the Park is a live album and concert film recorded by Paul Simon as part of his 1991–92 "Born at the Right Time" Tour, with an extensive live backing band comprising top studio and touring musicians as well as a guest appearance at the start by the Brazilian percussion group Olodum.

The concert took place in New York City’s Central Park on August 15, 1991, and was broadcast live on the HBO television network as well as being recorded for audio and video release.

A DVD release was not made for many years due to contractual difficulties but finally appeared in 2018 as a PBS exclusive.

[7]On AllMusic, William Ruhlmann gives the album four stars out of five, and writes: Simon made such stylistically various material work together by front-loading the set with the newer stuff and rearranging some of the older solo stuff, so that "Kodachrome," for example, was refitted with a guitar line courtesy of Graceland player Ray Phiri ... Simon also toned down the Brazilian percussion that had dominated the Saints material and sang it more convincingly, so that "Born at the Right Time," for example, was far more effective than it had been in its studio version.

[10] The long delay could be due to the contract with Pioneer that restricted the re-issue of concerts by artists signed to Warner on any future format.
