The Paul Simon Special (1977) - part 4/8 - Loves Me Like A Rock

[@ilovedylan3943]

Paul Simon is the best musician I've ever heard.

[@ilovedylan3943]

Please let me say it how I meant it..... PAUL SIMON IS ONE OF THE VERY BEST AND ONE OF THE MOST UNIQUE MUSICIANS WHOM I HAVE EVER HEARD. I think he is terrific 😀 and I always have. Ta daaaa.

[@melgreensings]

Toots Thielemanns playing harmonica on this is an extra treat!

[@jen3800]

i once asked Toots to play on one of my tracks and a rep of his actually replied, declining due to health and family but seeing this makes me feel like he said yes.

[@ellepennell3706]

Love Jessy Dixon always. RIP dear Jessy.

[@adammaybloom7276]

I didn't know Jessy Dixon died.

[@StillmanVonStillman]

Very nice!

[@eloymartinez2780]

Amo la música de Simon desde niño. Si a eso le sumas a Thielemans y le añades a los Jessy Dixon Singers, el resultado es algo asombroso. Otra lección de buen gusto en estos aciagos años

[@pumukliboti]

it'S SO GREAT THAT yOU SHARED THIS, THANKS A LOT!!!

[@MikeKiker]

Now this is music!

[@ellepennell3706]

Jessy Dixon and his singers with Paul.

[@LonlyHeartsClubBand]

He's such a dreamboat, such a dish. I love him so much oh my gosh.

[@ernestkinas5973]

Paul Simon or Chevy?

[@123456BRye]

you must be very old lol

[@Lecretois]

C'est vraiment bon !

[@tyng6691]

I really like this version. I prefer this slower and more laid back version.

[@socks4070]

Oh Paul Simon...

[@JoshAlexBrian]

One thing I love about SNL in the early days is that this wasn't even a special; It was just SNL doing random shit and finding its niche.

[@dougcmelik2442]

Ummmm this was a PAUL SIMON special NOT SNL...

[@whatsithair]

is that Toots Thielemans?

[@scrabtree1]

Joan of Arc is Shelley Duvall!

[@ragingbull888]

@weirdguy75 i think 5'4 but chevy chase is also really tall

[@dexthebs]

Shelley Duvall 1:30?

[@scrabtree1]

@whatsithair Yes! For others, he's the harmonica player.

[@landztranz]

Hey, you 11- and 12-year-olds, height means nothing. It's what you do in life that's important!

[@GuadalupePicasso]

I never knew that Larry King player the harmonica, let alone that he was so accomplished on it.

[@RobertCeisler]

may he rest in pieces

[@melgreensings]

That's the very famous Toots Thielemanns

[@weirdguy75]

how short is paul?

[@CaluckoCritters]

I'm 6 years late but Im pretty sure he's 5' 3"

[@c.a.g.3130]

A little over 4 foot.

[@mariannick9418]

he's 5'2 (160cm)

[@faulsname8869]

He’s such a smol bean

[@Logjam5]

Who's the tool at the end of the video?

[@bentybaroon8938]

Logjam5 no shit.

[@TemakiTom]

That's Charles Grodin. He was playing the producer of the special, a comedic character. He appears throughout. Quite brilliant, actually.

[@ysplse]

ridiculous to the sublime. How the heck has chevy chase survived so long? He’s as funny as a train wreck.

[@LucySiskin]

but can you (and ZurpCow) sing as well as him ??? I think you don't...

[@olflatop]

4:24 instrument abuse!
