Simon & Garfunkel - 2003-12-20 - Atlanta, GA (SBD)

On February 23, 2003, Simon and Garfunkel reunited to perform in public for the first time in a decade, singing The Sound of Silence to open the Grammy Awards. Before the show, the duo had been presented with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, honoring their musical contributions over the past four and a half decades. The Grammy reunion led to the pair deciding to go on the road together for the first time in more than 20 years. The tour, fittingly titled Old Friends, both the name of one of their songs and a reflection of their lives, launched on October 16 and ran until December 21. As part of their set list, Simon and Garfunkel performed Hey Schoolgirl, which they said was the first song they had written and recorded together. In addition, each night, about midway through their performance, the duo brought out another famous pair, the Everly Brothers, for a 4 song set. Simon and Garfunkel said this of Phil and Don “We learned to sing by listening to their records. They were our heroes then and they are our heroes now." Of course, the highlight of each night was the long list of classics, tunes such as America, the Boxer, Sounds of Silence and Mrs. Robinson, just to name a few, that at onetime ruled the airwaves and made S & G legends. This soundboard recording captures the pair on the next to last night of the tour, December 20, 2003, 11 years ago today, in Atlanta. Download this one to hear two old friends put aside their differences and do what they do best, harmonize on stage.
