Simon & Garfunkel - 1967-03-11 - Medford, MA (SBD)

The artwork included with this soundboard recording leaves no doubt that Simon & Garfunkel played at Tufts University on March 11, 1967, 47 years ago today.  We have jpgs of posters for the show and newspaper articles advertising the event.  What we don't know for certain is whether the music was played at that show, or at an earlier performance at the same location.   The original uploader of this show make a compelling argument, based on the set list and comparison to other bootlegs, that this recording is actually from a late 1966 performance.  See the notes included with the download for all the details.  Regardless of the actual date the tunes were recorded, this show is an outstanding example of S&G's early work, including wonderful versions of I Am A Rock, Sounds Of Silence, The 59th Street Bridge Song and Homeward Bound.
