Paul Simon is amazing! His music throughout the years has remained good. Similar to itself in many ways, but still distinct and different. He has a defined style, and its great. I have a S&G 3 disc set and two albums, and a few Simon solo CD's. I really like walking around listening to him on nice, sunny days.

I think you mean PSR&T.

I like S&G. I saw them back in 2004 on their tour. Garfunkel was much better than I expected and Simon was disppointing. Simon seemed like he'd rather be doing anything besides performing. He was just going through the motions. The only time he looked like he enjoyed himself was when they shared a tune with the Everly Brothers.

Maybe it's the film fan in me. Art's an awesome actor.

I need to get some real S&G albums. I only have their Best Of disc which I got on the cheap and enjoy thoroughly.

What the heck? Art>Paul!!?? Garfunkel sings Simon's songs. Paul Simon taught Art Garfunkel how to sing, and his voice isn't even as nice. Garfunkel's good for singing similarly to Simon so it sounds nice when they sing together, but c'mon. Paul Simon is the man. Art Garfunkel really isn't.

Bookends is pretty cool. Art was awesome in Catch 22.

My early 20s are too emotionally invested in PSR&T and Bookends to ever really talk about this duo.
