Album Notes
Ultradiscs are mastered from the original master tapes using Mobile Fidelity's proprietary mastering technique, then plated with 24 karat gold and housed in a stress-resistant lift-lock jewel box.
Personnel includes: Paul Simon (vocals, guitar); Art Garfunkel (vocals).
Producers: Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Roy Halee.
Simon & Garfunkel's first consistently excellent album, 1968's BOOKENDS is a brief (12 songs in less than 30 minutes) but beautiful song cycle that sums up all of Paul Simon's '60s themes of alienation and identity in a newly orchestrated and elegant style far removed from the skeletal folk-rock of their earlier albums. The entire first half, bracketed by the lovely "Bookends Theme," has a suite-like feel even though it encompasses songs as varied as the chaotic "Save the Life of My Child" and the subtle acoustic reverie "Overs," not to mention the anthemic "America" and Art Garfunkel's audio-verite "Voices of Old People."
The second half is the closest Simon & Garfunkel ever came to rock & roll, featuring not only the classics "Mrs. Robinson" and "Hazy Shade of Winter," but the lesser-known, near-psychedelic oddities "Fakin' It" and "Punky's Dilemma," two of Simon's weirdest and most playful songs. An eclectic and multi-dimensional album, BOOKENDS is probably Simon & Garfunkel's masterpiece.

Editorial Reviews
