Description
Before their harmonies became synonymous with the sound of a generation, Simon & Garfunkel were crafting poetic, introspective songs that quietly reshaped folk music. The Lost Radio Sessions 1965 captures the duo at a pivotal moment — between the modest release of Wednesday Morning, 3 AM and the breakout success of The Sound of Silence.
This CD features rare radio performances, including solo acoustic renditions and early duo recordings that showcase the raw emotional clarity of Paul Simon’s songwriting and Art Garfunkel’s ethereal vocals. Among the highlights are working versions of “I Am a Rock” and “Blessed,” plus the only known performance of “Can’t Help But Wonder Where I’m Bound.” These sessions offer a stripped-back, intimate glimpse into songs that would later define their legacy — along with a few that never made it to studio albums.
A must-have for collectors, historians, and anyone drawn to the quiet revolution of 1960s folk.
