  | Bodo - you missed Born at the Right Time which was released in 1991 in some markets to coincide with the Born at the Right Time tour.
Scaaty - Slip Slidin' Away is on Negotiations and Love Songs (and Shining like a National Guitar) and Stranded in a Limousine has been on One-Trick Pony since 2004.
But there is a CD of Greatest Hits, Etc that was released in 1987 when Greatest Hits, Etc was re-released. It's quite rare but it can be found on eBay and the prices have droped since Stranded in a Limousine has been readily available on CD.
Here's one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAUL-SIMON-Greatest-Hits
-Etc-RARE-JAPAN-HOLLAND-CD-NO-BARCODE-/36072473457

They used to go for about £60! |

| And there are two called the Collection:
1. 1991 The Paul Simon Collection (Japanese 3 CD box set)
2. 2002 The Paul Simon Collection (On My Way, Don't Know Where I'm Goin')
So I reckon we're up to 13 if you count all releases in all markets. |

 | Yeah I know the two songs are on other greatest hits & bonus tracks, but being on GH etc is the closest to the 'studio' album version which I always feel is the real song. Bodo - why does the picture make you anxious?
Btw Bodo, Ans and everyone else who braved previous Irish summers to see Paul Simon - this year we have had a glorious summer since the beginning of June!! :)) Bodo I think you got the coldest June on record. Hope Portugal is warmer |

 | Seeing Paul, meeting other fans and visiting old friends in Cork made up for the weather Scaaty :)
We also had the best summer in years :)

| About the cover picture: He looks like one of those crazy killers in a 1970's movie. The guy you believe he is the shy one who can't harm a daisy...but he tortures people only because they are listening to the wrong country music channel.
Strangely enought, I think many people in the 1970's looked like that.
He does not look very relaxed or comfortable on that picture.
Look at his eyes
What does he think at that moment? One more silly picture and I will jump into your face Mr. Photographer |

  | Hottest day ever in Sydney was 45.8 degrees and 46.5 in the western suburbs on the 18 Jan 2013. Buses and trains overheated and broke down. Sure wished I had Air con at home! |

| Well the highest we got was one day at 30 but for a whole month it was average 25-27 and even August was rarely below 20 - bliss!!
Paul's look was late 70s probably his token to punk! I think he looked scarier in the white suit on the live rhymin album! |

| One of my favourites Brenda - very comforting, I've told my family I'd like it played at my funeral sounds morbid I know but it's how I'd imagine what it's like in the afterlife.
Not that I have immediate plans of finding out!! :)) |
