Simon & Garfunkel - The Only Living Boy in New York

Columbia 45133, 1970

The single is a little different, in a good way. The lead vocal isn't so heavily processed like on the album (that cheezy ADT effect that makes everyone sound like a robot). Instead there's just some reverb over everything, which is very Classic Rock.

Garfunkel still sounds like a ghost on this one.

A reminder that Columbia has never issued most of the S&G mono mixes on CD. What's the hold-up? Those of us who bought these as youngsters aren't gonna be around forever!
