[dcab-l] Martin Guitar meets Simon & Garfunkel

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

Ed Schaeffer                 Lead Guitar and Bass
