Garfunkel Stood In Simon’s Shadow
Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel were an incredible duo. They created folksy, melodic tunes with honest lyrics that tug at your heartstrings. And while each member added his creative genius, only one received most of the credit for it. Songwriter Simon was being praised for his lyrics, and Garfunkel, who added the harmonious sounds, stood in his shadow.
Their bad blood eventually tore them apart in 1970, and although they have tried to reunite over the years, they failed time after time. Simon once commented: “I regret the ending of our friendship, and I hope that one day before we die, we will make peace with each other.”
