"The Dangling Conversation" #25 9/3/1966

Their music was said to be what rock would sound like if it was performed by an English major (Paul Simon) and an art major (Art Garfunkel). Very cerebral - maybe too much here, as this was only a moderate US hit and didn't chart in England. Their first three records all made our Top 5 and the Top 20 over there. Folks thought their music was either somewhat pretentious, or very articulate. I'm in the latter category.

They were very idiosyncratic, extremely unique.
When one is that arbitrary they stand out.
