Like 'Sgt Pepper' every household had a copy of this didn't they ? a great record their vocals are tremendous 'The Only Living Boy In New York' & 'The Boxer' best here.

A handful of really great tracks, but most of it feels like filler to me. "Bridge over Troubled Water" is one of my all-time favorite songs, though.

I was hoping there would be more really good stuff in the second half. Overall song average was 8. The album is a 10!

There's folk-rock and then there's wimp-rock, this falls into the latter category. Don't know who I hate more Paul Simon or James Taylor....James for sure, nothing worse than a wimpy coke head.

The seven or eight classics on this record basically make it perfect! Sure it's not all that well balanced and the weak tracks aren't that great (looking at you Why Don't You Write Me), but kinda like the Beatles White Album these shortcomings are easy to look over considering how fantastic some of these songs are. Cecilia is one of the funnest songs these guys ever made, and the Boxer is probably one of the finest peices of folk music ever written. I'm also a total sucker for The Only Living Boy In New York thanks to Zach Braff using it in Garden State. Other standouts include El Condor Pasa (If I Could), Keep The Customer Satisfied, and Song For The Asking. As for that glorious and beautiful title track, well what else is there to be said, Art Garfunkel gave the greatest performance of his life on that track, and I'm pretty sure every single person on this planet has at least once been moved to tears by its sheer beauty. Fantastic album, thanks to some of the greatest songs ever created by two of the greatest artist of all time!!!

I don't own this album and I don't think I've ever heard it but I do have a Simon & Garfunkel best of which contains 9 of the 11 songs and rightly so. An incredibly strong bunch of songs that I'm looking at and thinking this should be in my chart even though I've never heard it all.

Bridge Over Troubled Water is one of the most beautiful songs ever created along with "God Only Knows" and "Waterloo Sunset."

If the only thing on this album was Bridge and the Boxer I'd still buy it. Classic.

Fantastic album from start to finish (although without Frank Lloyd it would have been even better). S&G's take on Bye Bye Love is absolutely stunning.

this version of Bye BYE love is just gruesome IMO. the rest is high class, of course.
