        I remember my 6th-grade teacher Mr. Ciotti brought that album to class and played the song for us, stressing the lyrics, "People talking without speaking People hearing without listening" and that society -and we kids- needed to do better in understanding and relating to others.

        Same thing for me in my freshman year of high school ( Cardinal Hayes, Bronx). A turning point for me in terms of pairing lyrics to music forever more...

        I saw Simon & Garfunkel in concert in 1968--April 1. I remember meeting Paul Simon at the stage door as we were leaving the venue (a theatre in the round), and someone asked where Art was. Paul said, "He's throwing up backstage." I said it was nice to meet him & he asked me why.

        No. It was the Carousel in West Covina.

        Close my eyes and I’m crammed in a car with my friends, late fall, listening to it on the car radio.

        Going to see Paul Simon in Seattle in May. Last time I saw him was in 1973, Carnegie Hall. This is his final tour. I feel pretty old now.

        I guess the spelling of "groovy" had not yet been codified in those early days.

        The same studio that produced many classics, including Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" album. Sadly, the studio doesn't exist anymore.
