What the Critics Say
Though released to coincide with the film One Trick Pony, which Paul Simon wrote and starred in, the One Trick Pony album is not a soundtrack -- at least, not exactly. If it were, it might contain the Simon song "Soft Parachutes" and other non-Simon music featured in the movie. Instead, this is a studio album containing many of the movie songs; the closest thing to a band album Simon ever made, it contains some of his most rhythmic and energetic singing...The title song and the ballads "How the Heart Approaches What It Yearns" and "Nobody" are up to his usual standard...The album spawned a Top Ten hit in "Late in the Evening" and may have sold more copies than the film did tickets... ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
