Oh, homeward bound…

Oh, homeward bound… That’s right folks.  It’s a steady pace I’m keeping at the Newark International Airport before the 2nd leg of my homeward journey.  Luckily I have the Brothers K to keep me company, and the chance for a decent internet connection to let me at the blog action once again.  The wedding last...

alisa - this friend speaks my mind.

PJB - I think Alisa should win. Her contributions sounded so sincere and Paul Simon melancholy like.

alisa - sigh

Joel - Great answers! Unfortunately the location is so disputed and to this point (as far as I’ve researched) never legitimately confirmed by Paul Simon himself) that we’re going to bypass that part of the question and assume it was in the general Liverpool area, possibly Widnes North where the plaques have showed up, but who really knows. That said, Paul Simon is right, Angela! So, when you get a chance let me know what you’d like a print of, or feel free to wait and look for my upcoming nature gallery on my website. Thanks for the answers folks, and sorry Alisa!

nameless - Paul Simmon wrote it while waiting for a train at Halebank railway station.
or…….
Fleetwood Mac… they also have a song called “homeward bound”

Emily - I never knew PJB and Paul Simon were so tight. Can’t compete with that. I figured out all the correct answers as well if that counts for anything. It was produced by Bob Johnston and recorded on December 14, 1965. Awesome pictures!!

alisa - AHHHH!!!!

July 4, 2009 - 2:33 pm

PJB - Correction. Simon says it was written in Liverpool, but there is also a plaque the British Rail Station in Widnes that says he wrote it there.

PJB - So the answer is Paul Simon, Homeward Bound, Wigan.

July 4, 2009 - 2:29 pm

PJB - Simon was traveling back from Wigan when he wrote the song.

sarai - Homeward Bound, by Paul Simon, written in …London? beautiful pics, by the way. Oregon is excited to have you return!

Angela Kantz - Paul Simon
Widnes
He got stuck there and wrote the song while waiting.
