Eighth solo studio album by the American singer-songwriter. Like its predecessor 'Graceland' (1986), the album gained commercial success and received mostly favourable reviews from critics. Following the success of 'Graceland', on which Simon worked principally with South African musicians, he broadened his interests in diverse forms of music from around the world on 'The Rhythm of the Saints'. He turned to Latin America for the musicians and rhythms which characterise much of this album, partnering with Afro-Brazilian superstars Grupo Cultural Olodum, masters of the heavily percussive sub-style of samba called Batuque or Batucada.
