Precisely the one that puts me off the record.

I really like Simon's first two albums, especially There Goes Rhymin' Simon - feels the most similar to Simon and Garfunkel too.

Exactly. You can't beat Rhymin Simon or his first album. Tons of great tracks on them. I'm not crazy about anything he did afterwards though. Although I know people love Still Crazy and Graceland.

No-brainer for me - BOTW.
I grew up with that album. But I have heard all their albums.
My next favourite is Sounds of Silence, which saddens me that so far it has got zero votes.
Personally I think Bookends is twee and overrated.

PSR&T is third on my overall. Nuff said.

I'm new and unable to vote in the poll, but Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme is the most disjointed, and for that reason I love it the most. The others feel cohesive, but that one feels like a collection of songs, all of which are just splendid.

That way you don't have to choose between Scarborough Fair, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Mrs. Robinson, I Am a Rock, Sounds of Silence and America. They're just all in the same place. And they sound really good all in a row like that. |
this.

That's a hard question to answer. I'm always between "Bridge over Troubled Water" and "Sounds of Silence", but I think i'll go with the latter.

I voted for "Bridge...". It's their best, production-wise, I think. Their most coherent album, and the songs are mostly great. But then again, all their albums are superb, with the possible exception of the first one.
