Songs From The Capeman, Paul Simon's first studio album in six years, features music that forms the basis for his Broadway musical. Startlingly original and yet instantly recognizable as Simon's work, The Capeman's songs provide a gritty and powerful portrait of three decades of American life as chronicled by Simon and his co-lyricist, Nobel laureate Derek Walcott. The album features Simon along with show stars Ruben Blades, Marc Anthony and Ednita Nazario.
