  • @veltmaat1108 That Dutch duo "Nick en Simon" will sound just the same when they are older too! You can't compare like this. Unfair. I for one think that it is a wonderful job Simon & Garfunkel are doing at their age.

  • Legendary duo. They were and still are good at close harmony!

  • I don´t want to offend anyone - but the preference arguments look ridiculous. Paul´s talent (of a graduated anglicist) seems more concentrated, Art´s talent (of a graduated mathematician) more dispersed. They are entirely different people - but both of them wonderful. Shouldn´t we just be grateful for the fact that they got together in the right time? That they live?

  • Paul Simon is the talent here. A rich, distinct, clear, unique voice. Art is good at providing tenor-level harmony. Thank you, Paul. You lifted this duo to heights and then went on to a distinguished career of your own. i especially appreciated your counterpoint in Scarborough Fair/Canticle. You made that version awesome

  • Great performance... but I think omitting the orchestral build up and the power that was generated as it repeated and other instruments joined in-- loses power-for me,anyway.

  • @ctwomey There are thousands and thousands of distinct voices out there. The songwriting genieus of Guys like Paul Simon is like one in a million. But in a sense your right. Without Garfunkel it probably never would have lifted to the same height. 

  • @TheBigDelicious Art's distinct voice is what made S&G stand out. Let's face it, Simon's voice is forgettable. His forte is songwriting and arranging. He could be resentful all he wants, but you can't change that fact.

    Together, they've insured their place in musical history, that's for sure.

  • @TxKimberly i agree, the music is amazing.

  • @Ukuleleboy100 And you may feel free to make people smile in what ever fashion suites you and I will continue to do the same. In the mean time, how about we get back to commenting on the music?

  • @TxKimberly you can make people smile using good grammar
