		When one considers the fastidious approach Simon is known to have adopted during his concert tours in the 1970s one might reasonably ask why proper sound balances were not carried out earlier, so the listener would not have to pay to hear people learn their craft.
		Simon and Garfunkel's rapturous reception was a testimony that, "after changes upon changes/we are more or less the same." That the turmoil of the intervening years was a bad dream, like Cambodia and Watergate had never happened.
		Simon was haunted for days afterwards, with the kid's words ringing in his ears: "Paul, I need to talk to you." That was how much Simon and Garfunkel meant to their millions of fans.

		This concert film had some fun moments, but it never felt like a full-fledged Simon and Garfunkel reunion.
		Simon's solo numbers(which make up slightly more than half the set) all get big, lush arrangements, while the SandG songs sound spare and sloppy and tossed-off.
		The duo was spectacular throughout their 2003-04 tour, and the concert on the new DVD(well, the set is actually culled from TWO concerts) is much longer.

	DVD : Simon and Garfunkel - The Concert in Central Park (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		This free concert held in New York City's Central Park in September 1981 reunited the 20th Century's most successful musical duo in their home city ("It's great to do a neighborhood concert" as Paul Simon quips early in the show).
		As a Simon and Garfunkel fan since the mid sixties, I fell in love with this album when it was first relesed on vinyl, and when I saw it was on DVD I had to have it.
		This DVD was the first installment of my Simon and Garfunkel collection, bought on a whim after watching a clip of "Late in the Evening." Many reviewers will cite the duo's past problems, tensions, and arguments but this performances either doesn't show it, or masks it very well.

	DVD.net : Simon & Garfunkel - The Concert in Central Park - DVD Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		It will be their first after almost 20 years, since the small tour that followed the Central Park concert where they played, free, to an estimated 500 000 people on a balmy September evening.
		Simon and Garfunkel were pushing 40 at the time of the show, and while both occasionally look a little bored, don’t be fooled.
		Art Garfunkel's "hands in the pockets" look is just the way he stands and his few comments to the large hometown crowd give away the fact that was vibed that night and loving every minute of it.

	Simon and Garfunkel - The Concert in Central Park
		The band is essentially the band Paul Simon adopted from the mid seventies to the early eighties and thus all the songs are given the same "sound" featured on all of Simon's solo records from that era.
		Garfunkel is handed the solo spotlight on just two occasions, the first time to perform one of his own solo songs, the apt "A Heart In New York", and again to perform "Bridge Over Troubled Water".
		As enjoyable as Paul Simon's solo songs are, particularly the lively "Late In The Evening", this is a Simon & Garfunkel reunion concert after all and it's a shame some of the solo efforts weren't curtailed to allow more time for performing such obvious Simon & Garfunkel crowd pleasers as "El Condor Pasa" and "Cecilia".

		I can vividly remember watching this concert when it was broadcast in the UK back in 1981, and it came as something of a shock to realise that twenty-two years have since passed.
		One of the blessings of DVD is that events such as this memorable concert are being captured and preserved for posterity - and are available for fans to watch repeatedly without fear of decaying quality.
		New York's Central Park played host to over 100,000 avid fans - of all ages - as the duo worked their old magic, revisiting over twenty of their classic songs.

	Simon & Garfunkel: Concert in Central Park (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The most successful folk-rock duo of the 1960s, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel crafted a series of memorable hit albums and singles featuring their choirboy harmonies, ringing acoustic, and electric guitars; and Simon's acute, finely wrought songwriting.
		But the best of S&G's work can stand among Simon's best material, and the duo did progress musically over the course of their five albums, moving from basic folk-rock productions into Latin rhythms and gospel-influenced arrangements that foreshadowed Simon's eclecticism on his solo albums.
		Simon & Garfunkel's recording history actually predated their first mid-'60s hit by almost a decade.

		What started as a suggestion for Paul Simon to play a concert in New York's Central Park blossomed, on September 19, 1981, into a full-blown Simon and Garfunkel reunion after an 11-year hiatus, and now proves a priceless snapshot of two of America's greatest folk-rock performers.
		The show features a mix of SandG and solo Simon tunes, including all the songs that appear on the CD, with the addition of a reprise of "Late in the Evening" and the first live performance of Simon's "The Late Great Johnny Ace".
		As the concert progresses, they visibly warm to each other and eventually drop all barriers and inhibitions as the penny drops that they are what they are because of each other.

	Paul Simon St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture - Find Articles
		As one half of the 1960s folk-rock team, Simon and Garfunkel, Paul Simon's place in pop music history as a first rate songwriter was sealed.
		But after Simon's split with his partner in 1970, this Newark, New Jersey-born musician went on to not only distinguish himself as a veteran songwriter with a substantial body of work, but as a performer who experimented with a variety of musical genres.
		Although Simon had experimented with a variety of styles that strayed from Simon and Garfunkel's poetic folk-rock formula when he was part of that duo ("Cecilia" and "El Condor Pasa," for example), Simon's first post-breakup solo record was more eclectic.

	Barnes & Noble.com - Simon and Garfunkel: The Concert in Central Park - DVD
		In 1981, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel -- former musical partners who had a rancorous falling-out after the success of their album Bridge Over Troubled Water -- set aside their differences and reunited for a concert tour, with the New York City date being a free concert in Central Park.
		The Central Park show was recorded and videotaped for later release, and this home video release presents highlights from the show, with Simon and Garfunkel performing their hits as a duo as well as several of their solo hits.
		I recorded it live from the broadcast in 1981 but that tape is tired so this DVD is an archive for me. They did a great job editing this so the songs and the comments between them by Paul and Art are retained.

		Concert ticket brokers used to be a last resort for people who were interested in seeing a band or a group in concert.

		Bringing together several generations of listeners, THE CONCERT IN CENTRAL PARK, as captured on this compelling aural document, delighted longtime Simon and Garfunkel fans and undoubtedly made many new ones.
		When a rock band was overdubbed onto the original acoustic version of their single "The Sounds of Silence", a hit resulted and helped further the then-nascent folk-rock movement.

		I was happy to see Simon and Garfunkle in concert on their recent "Old Friends" tour, and was more than pleased by the performance of two men who, by all rights, should've been retired and not in the best of vocal form.
		Yes this concert, though a little short at 88 minutes, is a delight to say the least.
		Paul Simon: And Particularly, you know, people that never get recognized for doing good things for the city, a group of people that have donated half of the proceeds that they're making tonight, the guys who are selling loose joints are giving the city half of their income tonight.

		Most of the show is made up Paul Simon's solo songs, after they disbanded in 1970 after the release of Bridge over troubled water, and Art Garfunkel joins Paul Simon on most of his solo songs expect for Still crazy after all these years and Fifty ways to leave your lover.
		This concert in the park album captures the two of them at their very best.

		The performance, in New York City's Central Park,was a major media event, and there's an undeniable air of pageantry to the proceedings.
		To say that this is the best Simon & Garfunkel album will perhaps offend a lot of fans who love their acoustic folk-pop of the late 60s.
		This album is much more lively than the duo's strictly acoustic outings from the 60s, and it is highly recommended as one of the very best live albums of the 80s, one that really adds something to the artists' legacies.
