Paul Simon

Paul Simon is a famous Folk Singer, born on October 13, 1941 in United States. As of December 2022, Paul Simon’s net worth is $75 Million. His and Art Garfunkel’s work was famously used in the film The Graduate, which starred Dustin Hoffman.

He met Garfunkel while performing in Alice in Wonderland for their sixth grade graduation and they went on to perform at school dances together.

Between early and mid 1977, while playing gigs with Neo, he joined Radio Stars, with former Radio’s bandmate Martin Gordon, and recorded the “Good Personality” 7″ single and some songs which were released in their Radio Stars Somewhere There’s A Place For Us (1992); the time of his two bands were very full, dropping out from Radio Stars, who were preparing for a Japanese tour, while Neo had to do a gig at Marquee Club, being leal to North and his brother, rejoining for full-time with the latters, although Gordon and company asked him to tour in Japan. That line-up in Neo continued until February/March 1978, when his brother Robert decided quit and join to Ultravox, so Paul was sacked by North shortly afterwards.

After Neo, he integrated a number of bands in the late seventies and early eighties. By 1979, he formed part of The Civilians, where began to team up with Trevor Herion; in 1980 joined Cowboys International, replacing ex-The Clash Terry Chimes, recording some songs and doing the last tour before the split of that band; later, he was briefly in Girls At Our Best, recording their single “Politics!”/”It’s Fashion” (November, 1980); later he and Herion dissolved The Civilians and formed The Fallout Club, with Thomas Dolby, releasing a number of singles, in 1981. By the time he collaborated with his ex-Cowboys International bandmate, singer Ken Lockie in his album “The Impossible” (1981), Glen Matlock’s The Mavericks and The Philistines as member, and with John Foxx and Sue Rachel as collaborator.
