Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 1981, this compilation came at a time when Simon & Garfunkel were largely seen as cultural icons following their split in 1970. By this point, their music had solidified its place in the American musical landscape, showcasing a legacy marked by earlier hits like 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' and 'The Sound of Silence.' This collection served as both a retrospective and an affirmation of their enduring influence in folk rock.
