Simon & Garfunkel

In February 1966, Simon & Garfunkel performed at the University of Toronto as part of the Canadian television series 'Let's Sing Out.' This live appearance was a pivotal moment in their career, closely following the release of their iconic album 'Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme,' which hit shelves just a few months earlier in October 1966. Interestingly, during this period, the duo was not only gaining momentum with their melodic harmonies and introspective lyrics but also starting to attract a more diverse audience, especially the college crowd, thanks to their poignant songs that resonated with the era's social changes. 'Homeward Bound,' featured in this performance, beautifully captures their signature sound and the emotional depth that would mark their continued success.
