songs of america 1969 - simon and garfunkel




This was not that great a documentary of Simon and Garfunkel, but it had some good clips of them rehearsing, and some great live footage from the 1969 tour. This was back when Paul Simon could still write a decent song, and Artie still had the voice of an angel. A show I would definitely liked to have seen years ago, as l wouldn't be that bothered about seeing them now (unless it was cheap and down the end of our street). Just think, the people at these shows were hearing 'Bridge over troubled water' for the first time, as it had just been written. Jammy bastards.
