This is really beautiful. One of that slew or run of brilliant records S&G issued in the 60s and early 70s. Although I would say I like Sounds of Silence followed by Bookends then Bridge Over Troubled Water more. This is still awesome!

I first discovered Scarborough Fair when I was around five. I've been a fan of him for years. Scarborough Fair is easily one of my favorite songs.

Funny, I was just listening to this the other day. Absolutely amazing album, it doesn't get much better than prime S&G

Undoubtedly my favorite S&G record. There's a particularly wonderful atmosphere to this record that's not found on any of their other releases.

Patterns and Cloudy are two of their very best tracks, and Flowers Never Bend With the Rainfall is one of my favorite songs ever. I think Scarborough Fair may actually be my least favorite track on the record

Probably my favourite S&G. Homeward Bound, Dangling Conversation and Flowers Never Bend are perfect

Easily their folkiest record. I prefer Bridge Over Troubled Water and Sounds of Silence, but all their stuff is great.
