Simon & Garfunkel "Bookends"

LP (NEW) - Vinyl, Columbia, US, 2018, KCS 9529, 0190758749716, Reissue, Incl. Digital Download

Simon & Garfunkel’s 1968 release, Bookends, is widely considered one of the duo's masterpieces, a stunningly concise 29-minute record that elevated them from a pleasant folk-rock act into major icons of the 1960s countercultural movement. Released on the heels of The Graduate soundtrack, the album functions as a beautifully executed, bittersweet exploration of a bewildered America in search of identity. Critics and fans regularly debate whether Bookends or its commercially colossal successor, Bridge Over Troubled Water, represents the peak of the duo's discography.
