ABOUT THE RECORD Graceland, by Paul Simon, won the 1986 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, while the title song won the 1987 Grammy for Record of the Year. In 2007, the album was added to the United States National Recording Registry, along with another 24 significant recordings that year. It is included in many greatest album lists including both Rolling Stone's and Time's. Graceland features an eclectic mixture of musical styles including pop, a cappella, isicathamiya, rock, and mbaqanga. Much of the album was recorded in South Africa, and it features many South African musicians and groups. The worldwide success of the album introduced some of the musicians, especially the vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo, to global audiences of their own. The Everly Brothers sing harmony on the title track and Linda Ronstadt appears on the track Under African Skies. Graceland was Paul Simon's highest charting album in the U.S. in over a decade and has sold over 14 million copies, making it Simon's most commercially successful album.
