Songs from The Capeman is an album released in 1997 by Paul Simon. It contains Simon's own performances of songs from the Broadway musical he wrote and produced called The Capeman augmented by members of the original cast. A departure musically from his earlier work, the album features doo wop, rock 'n' roll and Puerto Rican rhythms. The play was a commercial flop, losing $11 million and the album did not sell well. It peaked at 42 on the Billboard 200.http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&token=ADFEAEE67B1DD846A5742094CA3542DA9464FB05D24AFB830D6E4F51C9A93B58AC1B66EF0AEC95C8AEF877AB7BAFFF28E85D05D6C8E457FACC0640&sql=10:sk3gtq1zmu4a~T3
