Who doesn't love Simon & Garfunkel! Their Live album in Central Park is amazing.

Phillip Bates

Love this album! Bridge Over Troubled Water and The Boxer always get me, emotionally. They bring back memories from childhood. A few summers ago, I was driving, with my parents, from Oklahoma to Idaho (through Colorado) to visit my sister and The Boxer came on and we all sang it at the top of our lungs. It's such a great song, like Cecelia, where it's a great one to sing along to. Loved the reaction and I was crying along with you. Paul Simon is a songwriting genius, both musically and lyrically. And their voices are made for each other. And I agree that his finger picking style on The Boxer makes you want to learn guitar. If you like that style of playing, you need to listen to Fleetwood Mac and Lindsey Buckingham.

Stephen Caruso

we had this on 8 track when I was a kid of 12 and folks played it in the car

Laura Moore

My Dad and I used to dance around and sing at the top of our voices to this album. Bye, Bye, Love is an original from the Everly Brothers. My parents sang them to me as a very little girl. If I want to remember that little girl. The 5 year old with no fears and only dreams, The Everly Brothers take me home. The brothers were Rockabilly and were enormous in the 50s. Dad took me and my Mom off to College in 1963, he heard Bob Dylan and it blew his mind.

Ronnie Mc Nairney

Great Album. Funnily enough, released at same time as Genesis Invisible Touch. Great video for Sledgehammer

Paul Zawicki

This album was released in 1970. It's a decade and half earlier than Invisible Touch.

Ronnie Mc Nairney

Sorry 😞...I made a mistake...I was making a comment about SO, by Peter Gabriel...How it was released at same time as Invisible Touch...l know all about Simon and Garfunkel....I made comment in wrong place.. Got all The Genesis Albums...Most of Gabriels. Keep Rocking 👍 Ronnie

Doug Fenske

Thanks, you two! I hadn't seen this post yet until now. Awesome album. I just acquired this and 3 of their other albums about 4 months ago. I'm discovering how detailed this music is so I'm having fun exploring it. I've been hearing their radio songs since they were first released, but had always missed the intricacies of these productions until listening now on a good stereo.

Stephen Caruso

an album we had as a 12 yr old and my parents had the 8 track and we listened to it on family trips... glad you guys reacted to it!

Nick Lynch

I know it's an older video, but I couldn't resist sharing my connection to this album as it's one of my very favourites. My dad begged his parents to buy this album. He was only a boy in 1970 but they did and he would listen to it with my grandfather. He would play it over and over and knows every note and word of every song. Years later, when my grandpa passed, we went through his album collection. Knowing I was a budding vinyl collector - and as the eldest grandchild - my grandma offered me the pick of whatever I wanted. I found this and a few others. Needless to say, when I showed my dad my picks and he came across this one, he told me the information I mention above and we shared a moment I will always cherish as he recounted his memories. I offered it to him, but he insisted upon my keeping it. I expected the record not to work as it had been played many times and was at the time 45 years old, but it worked perfectly. In the years since, I have played it many more times and it continues to work without issue, to my surprise and delight. I'm not a religious man, but I can't help but feel my grandpa is somehow involved in the record's continuing imperviousness to time and wear. For these reasons, it is one of my most treasured possessions. As a small aside, a long time after this all happened, my family was discussing this album. Both my dad and I picked "The Only Living Boy In New York" as our favourite song from it. I suppose the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree!

NicknLex

Wow this was absolutely beautiful to read. Thank you for sharing, it truly means a lot to us that you did! How lovely that you could share that moment with your dad and that you will always have this album to listen to and think about them both. Much love in music, Lex :)

Reed Sturdivant

Making this comment after only watching your reaction to the title track. I saw them live in 2003. Garfunkel could still nail the high notes. So powerful to hear this song performed live. I'm not a huge S&G fan, but I love their music. Bridge Over Troubled Water is what I consider to be a perfect song. Lyrically and musically, it's just a juggernaut.

Mark Alexander

Wow! N&L, the beauty in the music is simply mirroring the beauty in your both. THANK YOU for being so open, honest, and revealing. You are both a treasure and I'm proud to be a satellite in your solar system. Much love to you both!

Michele

“I’d rather be a forest than a street.” Reminds me lyrically of Joni’s “Big Yellow Taxi” - “They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.” Thank you both for the invitation to listen to this album today - it has not been on my playlist for some time but I find myself transported by it and I remember each word and note. This is an example of the many paths we had at that time. We had rock, folk, blues, jazz, pop, Motown, Soul, R&B, Funk, Metal, Prog, Doo Wop, Surf music, instrumentals - all getting major attention at the same incredible time. It was all being played on radios and reel-to-reels and turntables. Thanks for your big heart’s feeling so much beauty. Paul and Art each had minor acting careers as well. And their voices and harmony are angelic. Didn’t know I needed to revisit this today. A surprise. Thanks 😊

Michele

I missed naming many genres and sub-genres that the 60’s and 70’s provided. There was also Latin influence and Island influence (yes, even the beginnings of Reggae in Ska and Rude Boy). There was also Psychedelic, Rockabilly and Country & Western, Bluegrass. And the British Invasion that took early American Rock and Blues and fed it back to us with a new ear. There was protest music and lots of acoustic and electric. Classical and Renaissance sounds were incorporated. We had it all and we gobbled it up as a regular part of our daily lives - like you both are sampling now. (Feel free to include any styles I missed - “So outrageous!” Haha ) ✨🤪

Debra Brabenec

Great pick! I've loved this album since it came out when I was 13! "Bye Bye Love" is an Everly Brothers song, and Simon and Garfunkel were very influenced by Kentuckians Phil and Don Everly, as were the Beatles and countless other 60's and 70's musicians. You should listen to "Wake Up Little Susie", "Dream" and "Cathy's Clown" to see why.

Debra Brabenec

Another interesting story is about "The Only Living Boy in New York". When they first started performing they went by Tom and Jerry. The song is Simon (Jerry) telling Garfunkel (Tom): "go ahead and go to Mexico if you need to", as they had been having some differences.

Debra Brabenec

A funny story related to the above- My husband, Jerry, plays bass and he did a gig at a coffee house once with his keyboardist friend, Tom. I told them they should bill themselves as Simon and Garfunkle!

Michele

Always enjoy your comments, Debra. So informative and a great slice of history. My cousin LOVED the Everly Brothers. She’s the one who urged me to play guitar and sing their harmonies with her. I brought other songs to our duets ... “You’re Gonna Lose That Girl” by the Beatles, for example. And I loved watching the Beatles documentary “Get Back” when they seemed to start every session with early American Rock ... and the Everly Brothers were included. So ... very influential to Simon & Garfunkel ... and to many groups, the Beatles included! Here they are jamming with “Bye Bye Love” to get their creativity flowing:

Michele

And, Debra, you’ve probably seen Paul McCartney’s interview about writing “On the Wings of a Nightingale” for the Everly Brothers. ✨🤪 Cheers 🥂

Debra Brabenec

I haven't, actually. I'll check it out. Thanks for your kind words. I think we have a lot of musical tastes in common!

Michele

😂 💝

Michele

OK. I didn’t plan on watching every minute of your reaction today. But I DID! And you both gave such great reactions and open-hearted responses, so I kept watching. And Nick, you’re right about being lucky - Alexia is such a good person. And Lexita, you’re also right - you’re BOTH Lucky! Thanks for the emotional ride. You’re starting to blur the lines - I no longer feel like you both are “virtual friends,” you’re working your way into my heart (for realz!) When Lex declared, “The strumming is strong with this one,” I chuckled. The Force is strong with this couple ... and Marley (who made random visits) and your parents who gave you a love for music. The Force is strong! That was a beautiful emotional cleanse for year’s end. Thanks 🙏🥂✨🤪

Michele

I know it, Sis. Happy 2022! 🥂💗

Alan Walker

Thank you for that. Thank you for being as raw and real as Paul Simon’s writing lol. This is a seminal and timeless album. Another album that is on the same level as this is Astral Weeks by Van Morrison. Moon dance is his most popular album (and maybe rightfully so), but Astral Weeks is always ranked in the greatest albums of all time lists, and it’s because it tugs on the primitive soul, just like S & G do here. Thanks for sharing, and Happy New Year from Texas!

Michele

I agree MWalk. Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks or Moondance woukd make great albums to cover. Thanks. ✨🤪

NicknLex

Thank you for sharing this with us and for allowing and appreciating our rawness! We definitely have a lot more Van Morrison to get into so thanks for the suggestion and support! Much love and best wishes for the New Year, Lex

Murdock Moriarty

This album - for me - has some high highpoints, but also some rather cheesy moments. Great to be listening with you, though 🙂 Happy New Year, everyone. (Just as a side note, btw, el condor pasa is not a waltz, it's certainly not a 3/4 or 6/8 rhythm).

come together

When I saw Paul Simon live along with Brian Wilson (Beach Boys) in '00, he did a handful of the older tunes. It was a very good show. Paul's music around the time of the album "Graceland" is very good also, a lot of world music influences expressed.

come together

A great album from start to finish, I love that Nick and Lex show their emotions. It shows that they have a beautiful heart and soul.

Dan L.

Moondance, definitely.

Dan L.

This cost me some tears also. "The Boxer" is one of my favorite songs of all time. Such a lonely, poignant story.

Rob Gray

The story is correct about Garfunkel leaving for Mexico. It was for a movie role which, in essence unfortunately marked the end of the duo's creativity. There was supposed to be a 1971 album that never happened because Arty was going to be a movie star and basically left Paul to be the great musician he was and continues the be. Paul's first solo album tracks were mostly supposed to be Simon & Garfunkel so if you listen to that album knowing that it hits a little differently. Paul is a music genius and Arty has the voice.

Michele

As do you. Happy New Year to you and yours! 🥂✨🤪

come together

Thank you, Michele. Happy New Year to as well. 🍻

Michele

Moondance is Iconic Van. “And it Stoned Me,” “Into the Mystic,” “Moondance,”and “Caravan.” All good. Thanks ✨🤪🥂

Michele

I love world music vibes. “Playing for Change” is a great channel that teams artists like Peter Gabriel with musicians all over the world. Also, I remember hearing that when Paul Simon hired African musicians, he offered royalties but most had no idea how much the album would produce - they weren’t familiar with Paul Simon. Hopefully, it was a good payday. Thanks ✨🤪

Mike Coless

The Boxer features a bass harmonica on the second and last verses.

Murdock Moriarty

I literally had to pause the video during "The Boxer" and your very personal and emotional response to it. Phew, the stuff music and memories do to us. So kudos to you for putting your souls out there for everyone. And that's what music often is about: tapping into our very emotions.

Walter Gill

Hey Nick & Lex, You couldn't turn on an AM radio station back in the day without hearing some tracks from this album and not too surprised that you're in love with it, Lex!! Not a big fan but do respect their talent though!! - <3 <3 P.S. And as for "The Boxer", The song sounds folksy to me and that one instrument that you heard was a juice harp!! That was an Everly Brothers cover from the 50's!!

Scott Anderson

Just now getting around to this holiday reaction. Definitely a walk down memory lane haven’t listened to this album in a long time. Thanks for the reaction.

Andrew A

One of the things that’s so compelling about your reaction videos is that you allow us to not only experience your joy of discovery, but also the emotions that the music provokes. Your responses are coloured by your life experiences, so we may not have the exact same responses as you to specific songs, but we all are moved by music in our own way, and it’s heartening to see how music can elicit such sheer joy in you both or bring you to tears. Thanks for sharing with us. As for S+G, could I recommend that you explore the album “Bookends”? And if you were to pick only one track, I suggest “America”. ❤️

Rudi Becker

I had never heard the complete album, even though I already loved Bridge over troubled water as a child, was so impressed by Art's voice and the bombastic arrangement. I knew only the "hits" as El Condor Pasa (Nr. 1 in Germany), Cecilia ... all over the radio .. as well as The boxer ... still nowadays ... timeless music... I really appreciated hearing instruments in this remastered version, that I didn't know from my radio-listening ... especially in The Boxer

Mateus Muniz

Last chorus on Bridge Over Trouble Water always gives me chills, dam

Brad Watson

One of the two first albums I ever bought. I was 10 - and the first was either this or the Jackson 5's Greatest Hits. That said, Art Garfunkel on Bridge is one of my personal Top 5 vocals ever. The arc - the patience, the artistry, and that release on that glorious final high C. Serious desert-island stuff.
