Simon & Garfunkel: Live at the Hollywood Bowl 8/23/68

SLOW DOWN 

YOU MOVE TOO FAST

YOU GOT TO

MAKE THE MORNING LAST

Simon & Garfunkel: 

Live at the Hollywood Bowl

 8/23/68

 This recording is great.

Paul Simon trades jokes

 with the audience,

 makes fun of Art 

(nicely, they were still friends here)

 and explains the way 

they made 

Bookends.

The music is superb; 

there are different harmonies

 to be heard, 

especially on 

"The 59th Street Bridge Song" 

and as a duo,

 the tunes are

 tight and pared.

 Compare this recording with

 the Miami University set

 when S & G 

use a full band 

and introduce 

Bridge Over Troubled Water material, 

you can see the power

 of voice and guitar.

This is a comfortable recording 

with everyone enjoying themselves.

 The quality is A+ 

and all in all,

 it would be difficult to

 find a better boot.
