I see I mispelled Garfunkel. At least you will know it was posted by me and not some imposter.

For the young folks, follow the link for more info.

> I flipped on the TV and there were Simon and Garfunkle, just finishing up "Mrs. Robinson." I had forgotten how good they sounded. Then they ran a clip of S&G in their younger days. They were singing with Andy Williams and he had managed to blend in perfectly with their sound. The good news is that they were promoting an upcoming tour. There will be people hearing that sound for the first time.

Shaw is 93 now and claims he hasn't played the clarinet in 50 years. What a pity. Thank goodness Simon and Garfunkle are still sharing their sound with the world.
