*10 OCTOBER 1966*

“SCARBOROUGH FAIR”

.

*(‘parsley’ / ‘sage’ / ‘rosemary’ / ‘thyme’) is the 3rd studio album by american music duo ‘simon & garfunkel’*

.

(produced by ‘bob johnston’, the album was released on ’10 october 1966′ in the ‘united states’ by ‘columbia records’)

Following the success of their debut single “the ssound of silence”, ‘simon & garfunkel’ re-grouped after a time apart while ‘columbia’ issued their ‘2nd album’, a rushed collection titled sounds of silence)

(for their 3rd album, the duo spent almost 3 months in the studio, for the first time extending a ‘perfectionist nature’ both in terms of ‘instrumentation’ + ‘production’)

(the album largely consists of ‘acoustic pieces’ that were mostly written during paul simon’s period in ‘england’ the previous year, including some recycled numbers from his debut solo record the paul simon zongbook)

.

(the album includes the garfunkel-led piece “for emily (whenever 1 may find her)”, as well as…)

“7 O’Clock news/ silent night”,

(a combination of news reports of the day (the ‘vietnam war’, the civil rights movement, the death of comedian Lenny Bruce) + the christmas carol ‘silent night’)

Many critics have considered it a breakthrough in recording for the duo, and one of their best efforts.

(“homeward bound” had already been a ‘top 5 hit’ in numerous countries + “scarborough fair’ / ‘canticle'” performed similarly)

.

(the album peaked at #4 on the billboard ‘pop album chart’ + was eventually certified ‘3x platinum’ by the ‘recording industry association of america’)
