Simon & Garfunkel - The Dangling Conversation (1957-81)

The original idea of this set, which I started back in 2017,  is to look at Simon and Garfunkel's career from their first recordings to now, all of their output - as if they never broke up. it makes some sense, they used the same producer, same musicians and I suspect they knew pretty well what the other was doing. It'd be impossible not to. Looking at it now, I think their '81 reunion at Central Park serves as a natural break and would also allow me to finally finish this project.

The first volume contains all of their pre-fame singles, re-compiled from the Purple Chick set. It's nice to have these, but I believe few will be listening to this one often. The good news is on this volume, you'll have all of the pre-S&G 45s in one place.

Volume two is all of their US singles in mono, as compiled by Prof. Stoned. All I did was re-tag them all with original labels and sleeves. Thanks Prof!

The last two volumes are the most interesting: all of their single a-sides from 1972-80 along with selected b-sides and other treats. I've spun it and I'm (mostly) pleased with the way it turned out. A few performances from The Concert At Central Park finishes it all up. It's as if they never split!

All @ 320 and tagged with original sleeves/labels
