Since Legacy Recordings acquired the rights to Paul Simon's back catalogue from Rhino last year, things have gone pretty much by the book. Other than a new compilation and a planned Graceland box set, things have been pretty simple, with Sony's reissue arm re-releasing the mid-2000s expanded reissues of Simon's solo albums, with the same bonus tracks as before.

Next Tuesday, the new Songwriter compilation will hit stores alongside the reissues (re-reissues?) of One Trick Pony (1980), Hearts and Bones (1983), Graceland (1986) and The Rhythm of the Saints (1990). But eagle-eyed buyers are going to find one minor difference on one of these sets - though admittedly not so minor that it should be overlooked at The Second Disc.

What's the difference? Find out after the jump.

By and large, these reissues have been exactly that: straight reissues. The content is the same, the packaging is only slightly altered (the discs are now in jewel cases, not digipaks) and Bill Inglot and Dan Hersch's mastering has been kept intact.

However, one of these sets has been newly remastered for release: The liner notes to the new Graceland credits "Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound, New York, 2011."

One wonders if this is a new master in preparation for the Graceland box - although all the tracks on the Songwriter set are remastered as well, this time by Vic Anesini. We imagine time will tell, especially as Legacy gets closer to announcing the box set edition of Simon's 1986 classic.

Reacquaint yourself with the track lists to the new reissues below.
