Following the critically and commercially successful 1997 Old Friends box set, Legacy released a single-disc Simon & Garfunkel best-of collection. The pair is, arguably, the most successful duo in pop history, and this set features all of their charting songs. The disc is also an improvement on their 1972 Greatest Hits release, with nearly twice the number of tracks, remastered sound, and wonderful liner notes by David Halberstam. "The Sound of Silence," an anthem for a bygone era, leads into the reflective "Homeward Bound." Though it may not have climbed as high on the charts, the haunting and string-laden "The Dangling Conversation" is another stand-out track. "The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)" and "At the Zoo" are the two greatest metropolitan Sunday songs in history. Also included are "The Boxer" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water," two bona fide classics, as well as the non-hit single "Song for the Asking." The album concludes with "My Little Town," from the duo's 1975 reunion. Simon & Garfunkel's influence is immeasurable, and each generation that follows gets turned on to the artists formerly known as Tom & Jerry. Whether you are a first-time listener, or rediscovering these amazing songs, this disc is a worthy purchase.
