Day 48 - Simon & Garfunkel - Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme (1966)


Hey music lovers! It’s been far too long since i’ve posted a review so think of this as my comeback :). 
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme was Simon & Garfunkel’s third album and contains the hit singles “Scarborough Fair/Canticle” and “The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy)”. I really like this album, Simon & Garfunkel harmonise really well and a lot of the songs are catchy. I think Paul has a slightly better voice though. 
The soft rock/folk style of the album was very peaceful to listen to and the song “A Simple Desultory Philippic (or How I Was Robert McNamara’d into Submission)” was very interesting for using a whole list of names throughout it to tell a story, including Art Garfunkel’s name too!
I give this album 4/5.
Tracks I enjoyed the most: Scarborough Fair/Canticle, The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy), Patterns, Cloudy & The Dangling Conversation.
