Simon and Garfunkel

Simon and Garfunkel were one of the most important and successful folk acts of the sixties. Their harmonies were phenomenal during a time when people were seeking a "back-to-nature" lifestyle with peaceful music from singer-songwriters. They provided the soundtrack to the iconic film The Graduate. They broke up in the seventies, with Paul Simon going on to have a successful solo career. They were inducted their first year of eligibility, an obvious choice. They performed at the Monterey Pop Festival of 1967. They mingled a little in the psychedelia with The Sound of Silence and Scarborough Fair.
