Having released five albums between 1965 and 1970, Simon and Garfunkel participated in many of the key events of the era: the expansion of interest in folk and its social themes, criticisms of the Vietnam War, and creating the soundtrack of 1967&#8217;s&nbsp;<em>The Graduate<\/em>&#8212;a movie which is acknowledged as having profound effects upon the culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This website offers several avenues to learn more about Simon and Garfunkel&#8217;s music and the role it played in their time. Hopefully, it will demonstrate why they are considered to be such a leading symbol of the 1960&#8217;s era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for visiting &#8211; Please feel free to write with comments or questions to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"mailto:info@davidredd.com\">info@davidredd.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For additional lyrics, great album reviews and song analyses,<br>midis, and more, be sure and visit&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/sglyrics.myrmid.com\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Simon and Garfunkel Lyrics Archive<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Their history&#8230;A discography&#8230;The 45s&#8230;Song lyrics&#8230;Video clips&#8230;&#8230;and beyond There is no doubt that Simon and Garfunkel represent one of the central musical duos of the late<span class=\"read-more-link\"><a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/simon-and-garfunkel\/\">Read More<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-165","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/165\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":345,"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/165\/revisions\/345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davidredd.com\/music\/oldies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
