Experience the timeless brilliance of Simon & Garfunkel with their fourth studio album, "Bookends," now available on limited 180gm vinyl LP. Housed in a gatefold jacket and including a digital download, this iconic album, released on April 3, 1968, by Columbia Records, is a masterpiece of poetic lyricism and harmonious melodies. Produced by Paul Simon, Roy Halee, and Art Garfunkel, "Bookends" explores a life journey from childhood to old age, with side one marking the successive stages in life and side two featuring unused material from their work on the soundtrack for the 1967 film "The Graduate."
A concept album at its core, "Bookends" delves into themes of youth, disillusionment, relationships, old age, and mortality. Paul Simon's poignant lyrics and the duo's enchanting harmonies are complemented by the production work of John Simon, who helped craft the album during a period of writer's block for Paul Simon. Recorded gradually over a year, with an increased pace towards the end of 1967, "Bookends" remains a significant work in the duo's discography. Add this beautifully crafted album to your vinyl collection and immerse yourself in the profound and enduring music of Simon & Garfunkel.
