The unlikely twosome of childhood friends from Queens, New York, Simon & Garfunkel would go on to become the most celebrated folk duo of the 1960s. Scoring a series of hit singles and albums throughout their long and illustrious career together, the pair is renowned for their signature choirboy harmonies – a staple sound of the American folk-rock revolution. Simon & Garfunkel are best known for songs such as "The Sound of Silence" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water", while The Graduate's best-selling anthem "Mrs. Robinson" earned the pair a Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1969. Fusing their own unique blend of folk, pop and rock styles, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel have long delighted fans worldwide while casting a special impression on the history of popular music.
Happy birthday Art! My gift to you is to say that you are a wonderful singer. Also, I think you are a great actor, intelect and a great person in general. You were good looking back in the 60s. How terribly strange to be seventy? Not really because it's 3 years from now.
Just watched a DVD of one of your reunion shows in NYC. My percussion teacher at Berklee, Jamey Haddad, was your percussionist! I knew he worked with Paul, but didn't know he played Simon and Garfunkel tunes! thats amazing!
Anyways, you guys are phenomenal. We are told time and again that we remind people of your sound with our gentle harmonies. Please take a moment to listen if you enjoy good music with good lyric.
