Many of us have dreamed of that moment when we attend a music concert and the star performer looks out into the audience, points to us and says, “ Will you come up here on stage and help me perform this song?”
Okay, that may not be everyone’s fantasy, but it was the dream of Rayna Ford who got to have that magical moment with singer and songwriter, Paul Simon at a live concert. Simon was about sing the song Duncan from his 1972 album, Paul Simon, when Ms. Ford called out from the audience that she’d learned to play guitar from that song. What happens next is every music fan’s dream. You can not watch this without smiling or without thinking how great a human being Paul Simon was at that moment. Simon’s album version of the song is here.
