Does anyone know why "Soft Parachutes", a Paul Simon song from the movie One Trick Pony, was not put on the One Trick Pony album? Everyone made such a big deal about it in the movie; I was very surprised not to find it on the tape after I bought it. Someone suggested that it was because of the song's anti-Vietnam War theme but I find this hard to believe. Dan
