Overview
Paul Simon is set to tour his critically-acclaimed album 'Graceland' next year to mark its 25th anniversary.
The singer's jaunt will see him reunite with the musicians that worked with him on the 1986 album, including South African vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
The album was named Record Of The Year at the Grammys in 1987.
In addition to the tour, Simon will also release a new 'Graceland' box set, which features a documentary about the making of the record.
"The documentary took me back to the artistic aspects and the political aspects of making Graceland and the controversy that surrounded it and how it was resolved, plus what remains of it and what we learn from it,” Simon said.
Simon was among the performers at this summer's Glastonbury festival in Somerset.
