(1957 – present)

Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel are American popular musicians and Singer-songwriters known collectively as Simon & Garfunkel. They formed the group Tom and Jerry in 1957, and had their first taste of success with the minor hit “Hey Schoolgirl”. As Simon and Garfunkel, the duo rose to fame in 1965 backed by the hit single “The Sound of Silence”. Their music was featured on the landmark film The Graduate, propelling them further into the public consciousness. They are well known for their close harmonies and sometimes unstable relationship. Their last album, Bridge over Troubled Water, was marked with several delays caused by artistic differences. Simon and Garfunkel were among the most popular recording artists of the 1960s, and are perhaps best known for their songs “The Sound of Silence”, “Mrs. Robinson”, “Bridge over Troubled Water” and “The Boxer”. They have received several Grammys and are inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Long Island Music Hall of Fame (2007). In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked Simon and Garfunkel #40 on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

They have reunited on several occasions since their 1970 break-up, most famously for 1981’s The Concert in Central Park, which attracted more than 750,000 people.

Early history
Close friends through childhood, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel grew up in the same Forest Hills neighborhood just blocks away from one another.

Yes, I believe Bookends is their best album. Too bad my Bookends CD is now broken. My mother bought it before I was born, and played it almost everyday. This is the most beautiful music the world has ever known. I hope this music can be preserved for generations to come.
