Joni Mitchell.
Exhaustive list.
That's worth a bold claim.
You have a number of probably less obvious ones, but floating points.
Pharoah Sanders and the London Symphony Orchestra.
I'm not overly familiar with it.
And the other one I was interested that you have down here is Common Tones and Simple Time by John Adams.
Yeah, you've mentioned Paul Simon a couple of times and his album Graceland is a titan, I think.
And it was just controversial at the time for obviously having gone to South Africa while the apartheid regime was still in place and he took a lot of flack for going there.
But anyone, I think, who studied the album or the making of it would see what he did with those amazing musicians.
And you've picked it almost as one of your favourite gigs as well.
But why is Graceland so important to you or why do you think it's such a good album?
We have a clip from Hearts and Bones, Paul Simon live in Hyde Park in 2012.
