      My dad sent me the recording of this concert several years back and I used to listen to it whenever I felt sad and down, it always helped and made me feel better. Last year he died and since then I always feel a strong connection to him whenever I listen to Simon and Garfunkel. I hope that he is at peace, wherever he might be.
