Legacy Recordings has announced the June 9 release of Paul Simon: The Concert in Hyde Park, featuring Simon’s July 15, 2012 performance in London.
For the special concert, Simon and his band were joined by the original Graceland musicians and other special guests, including Jimmy Cliff and Jerry Douglas, to close the annual Hard Rock Calling Festival.
The show was an epic three-hour, 26-song performance that covered some of Simon’s best loved solo songs along with two from the Simon & Garfunkel catalogue.
Paul Simon: The Concert in Hyde Park will be released as 2-CD/1-DVD, 2-CD/1-Blu-Ray and digital download.
An abridged version of the show will be shown during the PBS pledge drive in June.
