The Best of Simon & Garfunkel

From: $10.97

Augmenting 1972's Greatest Hits with additional tracks, Best of... now stands as the preeminent one-disc introduction to the music of Simon & Garfunkel. Containing everything Greatest Hits offered except for the live version of "59th Street Bridge Song" (the original studio hit resurfaces here) and the incandescent "Kathy's Song," the updated retrospective boasts 20 tracks, in contrast to its predecessor's 14 selections. Added to the mix are the likes of "Hazy Shade of Winter," "The Only Living Boy in New York," "Song for the Asking," and "My Little Town," a one-off the twosome did five years after they ended their phenomenally successful partnership. Remastered from the original source tapes, Best of... also boasts far superior sound to the earlier hits collection. --Steven Stolder

I was impressed how good Simon and Garfunkel still sound and how their songs are not outdated. A great CD of two great singers. Highly recommend.

From: Amazon Posted: Jul 10, 2008 Type: User Review The Best Remastered Issue To Date

For a truly definitive and distinct collection, this remastered disc really brings out all the nuances and subtleties of all the Simon & Garfunkel classics. With twenty great songs, I have to admit that even the over-played, "Bridge Over Troubled...

This is the S&G collection to buy. Too bad some of the early recordings were so poor.

From: Amazon Posted: Jan 20, 2008 Type: User Review Essential to Any Music Collection

Loving these artists but not being a total hard-core fan and thus someone who probably would want a box-set or individual albums, this disc was perfect for me. If I were compiling a list of top 100 CDs, this one would be on it for sure.
