Music Lovers & Songwriters:
“For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her", written by Paul Simon in a single
night, and sung by duo Simon & Garfunkel, appeared on their third album:
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme (1966). It is sung solely by Art
Garfunkel on a 12-string acoustic guitar. To me, it's an enchanting song about
being in love with the woman of your dreams, sung beautifully by my All Mixed
Up partner Barry Wendell.
First issued as a single on the B-side of "A Hazy Shade of Winter" (1966), it was
later reissued in live form in 1972 to promote the release of Simon and
Garfunkel's Greatest Hits. The track reached #53 on the Billboard Hot 100,
spending seven weeks on the chart. It has been covered numerous times by
many notable artists, and remains a staple of Art Garfunkel's live sets.
Musicians:
Barry Wendell Lead Vocal and Rhythm Guitar
