Songs from Sounds Of Silence and Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme and Bookends and Bridge Over TroubledWater - part acoustic, part electric backing. In the fall of 1969, at the absolute pinnacle of their decade-and-a-half working association - and with two GrammyAwards, four multi-million selling Columbia LPs and nearly a dozen hit singles under their belts, including the #1's"The Sounds Of Silence" and "Mrs. Robinson," and their penultimate album masterpiece, Bridge Over Troubled Water,newly recorded (but not yet released) - Simon & Garfunkel undertook a major North American tour, which turned outto be their last live dates together until 1982. The performances on LIVE 1969," writes Bud Scoppa in his liner notes, "were impeccably recorded, and that is a goodthing indeed, because Simon & Garfunkel were in absolute peak form at the time, their imminent estrangementnotwithstanding." Scoppa also penned the notes for the five individual original albums that were packaged togetheras expanded editions in the 2001 box set Simon & Garfunkel: The Columbia Studio Recordings (1964-1970) - namelyWednesday Morning, 3 A.M. (1964); Sounds Of Silence (early-1966); Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme (late-1966);Bookends (1968); and Bridge Over Troubled Water (1970).
