SIMON & GARFUNKEL Sounds Of Silence (2018 UK/EU limited edition 11-track stereo LP - Simon & Garfunkel's 1965 breakthrough Sounds of Silence stands as a cornerstone of American songwriting in the 1960s. What began as a stark acoustic piece was transformed when producer Tom Wilson added an electric backing track - unwittingly helping to launch the folk-rock movement and sending the duo to the top of the charts. Across the album, Paul Simon's writing grows in scope and confidence, pairing sharply observed narratives with intimate reflections, while Art Garfunkel's vocal performances reveal the crystalline clarity that would become his hallmark. The record moves from the title track's timeless melancholy through the tender "Kathy's Song," the urgent storytelling of "Richard Cory," and the irresistible jangle of "I Am a Rock." Recognised for its enduring cultural importance, the album was added to the National Recording Registry in 2013. Housed inside a picture sleeve replicating the original cover artwork, factory sealed. Essential).
