A best-of album that condenses the history of this duo, one of the most representative folk rock bands of the 1960s.
This album offers a panoramic view of the poetic worldview, with delicate acoustic sounds and perfectly blended harmonies.
Featuring timeless classics like "The Sound of Silence," "Mrs. Robinson," and "Bridge Over Troubled Water," this album showcases the aesthetics of the duo, weaving together Paul Simon's sophisticated songwriting and Art Garfunkel's limpid high tenor. From tranquil acoustic pieces to dramatic numbers featuring strings, this album also showcases the breadth of their musical expression.
