Good god. Eddie Simon is like, an exact replica of Paul. When he went on about "the night I heard Sounds of Silence" I thought "well, you wrote the fucking song!" and then it was subtitled "Eddie Simon"... seriously, it's almost the exact same person.

Kathy's Song has got to be one of the greatest love songs of all time. What an amazing song!

Oh my God, he's so tender when he says "well, not MY Kathy"!
:')
Thanks for posting, that's such a precious stuff!

This is SO awesome!

"so by default we were our real last names" ....... as opposed to having previously been their fake first names. There's something very apropos about all of that.

Art Garfunkel has a deeeep voice!

LOL! I!!! thought it was Paul Simon as well, i mean, Eddie Simon must have been artificially created in lab somehere, he's definitely paul's clone!

Add a tag for Jackson C. Frank. Either he influenced Paul or vice versa, but my gosh the acoustic guitar riffs are similar.
Good video. Scarborough Fair is a folk song going back many centuries so Paul Simon owed no apologies to Martin Carthy for recording it, especially since he overlaid with Canticle. And Simon & Garfunkel did a beautiful job singing it. Does anybody know what became of Kathy in "Kathy's Song"?

As Paul says in the video in 1991, Kathy is very shy. I'm sure she is still living a quiet life somewhere in the UK.
If you happen to read this Kathy, can you update us?

Yes, definitely great.
(BTW, Carthy and Simon made peace with each other many many years later...)

Yeah. I was at the London concert in 2000 when Paul Simon invited Martin Carthy on stage to duet on Scarborough Fair.
