Paul Simon—
CLEVELAND, USA (AP) — An exhibit chronicling Paul Simon’s career will debut at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.
The Rock Hall announced yesterday that Paul Simon: Words & Music will feature a first-person narrative from Simon. It is a first for the museum.
The exhibit in Cleveland will showcase more than 80 artefacts, including Simon’s first acoustic guitar, Simon & Garfunkel’s original recording contract, hand-written lyrics for The Boxer and a letter Simon wrote as a teen from summer camp to Art Garfunkel.
Simon was inducted into the Rock Hall as a solo artiste and as one-half of Simon & Garfunkel. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the duo’s debut album.
The 73-year-old Simon has won 12 Grammys.
The exhibit opens today.
