30-year old Frenchman here. I was born and raised listening to this live album. I still love this music today. This is so good. Simon and Garfunkel and Paul Simon are world treasures. Thank you America for sharing them with us!
Lol those are in-ear monitors, it's so the singer can hear the balance between their voice and the mixed band more clearly than they otherwise would via the use of standard PA monitors (loudspeakers). Im certain if they were more practical and cost-effective in the 70s/80s, this group would have used them then as they do today. The lack of autotune is always nice though.
Love them both. Art's amazing voice. Paul's once in a lifetime songwriting, his gituar playing and his groove. As for their harmonising, only these two can harmonise like a choir of angels. Love them. My lockdown companions. 2021.
Hi dear I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. Thanks for your lovely comment on my post, it’s means a lot to me. I want you to send me a text message if you want to via Hangout using my personal email address and also endeavor to add your name to the text so I can know you are the one texting because I don’t reply unnecessary message on Hangout Email: fredpaulsimon@gmail.com Hope you stay safe and warm🌹
Please keep in mind they re still very popular and beloved in europe and here in France. Their talent is too great To be kept in america. Hope my english s not too poor.
Hervé Mazoyer The French speak the most beautiful language in the world. This American says you can say whatever you have to say, any way you want to say it.
Considering that its not even your native language and you were able to use “too” correctly... I’m still waiting for more than 10% of the population here to use it properly lol soooo aggravating
Bill Petersohn Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Great point. I've been a few places and heard the English language spoken better there than here. Especially now in the White House.
I' m from the Netherlands and saw them in a sold out Feyenoordstadium in Rotterdam with this show. They didn't only brought us they're wonderfull songs but they also brought us the atmosphere of the concert inCentral Park, it was pure magic.
I think this is where the sadness comes into play - the music is so pure and so beautifull that it does make you wanna go back in time to when the world was simpler and you were young and carefree but as Paul says two part harmony -there’s nothing like it !!
@@sanweinstein5342 yes San I would love to return to the 70s. I was in the United States Marine Corps from 5 Oct 73 to 4 Oct 77, I'd even repeat that time just to go back. So 40% of the 70s I was in the Marine Corps,and very proud of that. San you stay safe during this COVID19 virus and greetings from Charleston, West Virginia, USA
Two men but they sing with such harmony, it sounds like a single voice. I first came across the songs of Simon and Garfunkel in 1988 and I listen to them every single night while drifting off to sleep. I recently introduced my daughters to these timeless songs and they love them too! No one arranges music like Paul does.
As a photographer who has shot countless rolls of Kodachrome, this song rang so true when Kodak announced they were stopping production of the film and stopping the processing as well. So sad that momma did take my Kodachrome away!
I was there as well and if there was a time machine I’d sign up for Central Park with art and Paul as my first choice - so happy you were there too - two part harmony as Paul says - there’s nothing like it
Listen to these guys and you soon realize that you have two disparate talents, a musician/singer/songwriter and a man with a voice best described as angelic. How could it last anyway. We were blessed for some years with the results
that honestly feels like a part of his image as a dorky sensitive guy, but who knows, maybe he really doesn't know - only singer who sings with hands in his pockets :D
i think a lot of it has to do with the fact that this is Paul Simons song and not a Simon & Garfunkel song. its well documented that these 2 couldnt get along anymore. so maybe that has something to do with it
I was fortunate to have seen them when they were on this tour in Foxboro Ma, I rode my motorcycle, lost my damn job over it but no regrets , I always thought I would forget that job and remember Art and Paul but because of art and Paul I remember that job
I am literally obsessed with this song and this video!! Have been watching it constantly for weeks. Paul Simon is a song-writing genius and Art Garfunkel's voice is incredible!!
I understand you well !! one of the best rock songs among all I know, and certainly THE best groove here ( but I think you noticed those hell of musicians they had there.. even though Paul's own groove is amazing and can stand nobody around..) always loved this album since my father bought it quickly after its realese when I was..12 years old ..oh my god !!
So amazing the way Paul could put such good sounds together and meander his way through an instrumental, not rushing through it but taking his time allowing the horns to send out a sweet melody over the large crowd of Central Park.
Simon and GARFUNKEL 'S lyrics are always amazing. They have written some of the best songs in the 60's and 70's. I never cease to be in sheer wonderment at their many simply fantastic song as.
Continued from my last post Simon and GARFUNKEL have composed the most mysterious lyrics and melodies of songs and songs that leave you wondering about the meanings of their songs. I never tire of listening to their wonderful songs. Edna L'herault
@@ednalherault3130 Paul Simon wrote ALL the songs. Art Garfunkel only sang and didn't write or didn't help write any of the songs. Strictly written by Paul alone. And yes very brilliant songs.
vicky leeman I do that too Vicky. I subscribed to a special network so I could watch the concert in Central Park over & over again. I bought his book, What is it all but Luminous, and I’ve read it 3 times already - so interesting& enlightening. I love everything about Artie - his voice, intelligence, personality, the way he moves, his wisdom. Guess I’m obsessed - I could go in all day. 💕💕
@@normaverleni7217 I agree with everything you said. I have become maybe as you said "obsessed" by Artie. I just cannot get enough of watching this concert and he is so very interesting as a man. Love his book also.
Vicky - am an old fan of S&G from '60's & for the FIRST time heard Art singing "Travelling Boy" it sums up 60's/70's so poignantly aptly as kids were hitch-hiking all over the planet... There were loads of Amercians & Aussies in Cape Town - draft dodgers - "hell no we won't go" was famous rhetoric from protestors... SA Nazi gov was also involved in it's own shenanigans in Rhodesia & Angola & South West Africa... But these lowlife self-serving war-mongering politicians didn't reckon on the power of the boomer generation (even our parents were somewhat shocked) Lennon...Stones... Dylan...Joan Baez...Byrds.... CSN&Y...Donovan... The Music was the greatest & encouraging background sound to what was going on...
It is 41 yeas ago!! My god, feels like yesterday. I was not here (swedish), but I have seen it on TV, dvd, YT many many times. And it is still absolutely wonderful. And the music is still some of he best you can hear.
Every second of this video (and concert) is fantastic, but I can’t help but zero in on all of the nuanced talent in Art’s voice. Watch again and enjoy all of the little things he does with that gift of an instrument.
Never to be repeated again by such talent as what was in those good old days by such a top class act, not like the rubbish that we have to put up with today so hurry for Simon and Garfunkel
(Kodachrome) When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school It's a wonder I can think at all And though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall Kodachrome Gives us those nice bright colors Gives us the greens of summers Makes you think all the world's a sunny day Oh! yeah!

Me and julio down by the schoolyard. What were they doing? More than grass for how mother reacts. When beatles were popular we wondered if happiness is a watm gun was perverted pistol or sexual. Finally beatles themselves tell tale about. COME TOGETHER but cannot relate this forum. Got it?
I’ve got bipolar but anytime I feel down I put this song on & it immediately makes me smile 😊 & I start dancing round the room it’s my Friday song lol 😝
From 4:50 to 5:15 in the album, there are 2 great solos (guitar and sax) that have unfortunately been removed from this video...i really don't get why, but I advise you all to go and listen to them, it's like a kind of fireworks...what a band (singers + musicians) !!!
I'm so desperate not to see them and to see them play, it's a huge frustration. But thank you for confessing your involuntary crime to me, I wait for this moment every time I listen to the concert, it is sorely missed.
There are a short few reasons to getting old and one of them is to be able to have the ability to remember S&G and grow up knowing them. Love to both!!!
It's really not hard to figure out if you've seen either of them in interviews. Neither was blessed with humility and both knew that they were indispensable to the group's success - Paul did all the writing and the group would have gone nowhere without Art's singing. And yet they are still friends today. They were 40 years old at that concert it was not reasonable then to expect them to still be carrying on like they were half a lifetime ago. When the Rolling Stones got back together in 1989 people were shocked, it was not normal then for bands to stay together their whole lives. Five albums for Art and Paul was a good run.
@@sallybowles2781 yes you are right i thought so Art was too good looking and his voice was absolutely great and Paul writing songs and played guitar what a combination equals perfect harmonies. They are truly a legend.
Amazing concert, amazing music, amazing guys...I always listen with my heart this duo and sometimes I wonder if the youngs of today know anything about them...
as 17 year old kid and big S&G fan my uncle took me from europe to NY for a short holiday. my big suprise there was we went to the concert on my birthday 19th of sept 1981
Art doesn't need to know what to do with his hands...all he has to do is open his mouth and that incredible Angelic voice just quietly blows you away!!!!!!!
Yes!!! So funny watching his awkwardness!!! He looks like he often just wants to bust out dancing but instead, awkwardly folds his arms in front of his chest😉😉
I get it in a way. I cant sing though, but if im really moved by music or loving it and im with other people i want to dance or something. But i have zero rhythm. I feel like he is feeling what he is singing deeply. But is unsure how to express it on a physical level beyond the beauty of his voice. Makes him very endearing though for sure.
john smith Actually hes said he found it really hard. He particularly thought his singing that day in central park was weak. That kinda drive for perfection is what made them both great
My teen heroes, got me through those yrs a bit easier ;) Still, they have those voices, which touches my soul, and heart. And all those lyrics sits, since the records are so so played over and over... Thanks for your beautiful music
It was around 1999-2000 and I was 11 years old when I first came into this CD from my dad’s collection and that I wanted to listen to, for some reason. It was the Concert in Central Park and I adored it right from the start. I did not even know english very well at the time (I am italian) but I was hypnotized by the music itself. This track, Kodachrome/Maybelline was one of my favorites. I soon understood I would never be quite the girl who listened to the pop song of the moment as the other teenegers, and very soon I had gone through all Queen and Pink Floyd discography. Now that I am 31, I have a bit changed my opinions on pop music, but still I have to thank Simon and Garfunkel for letting me appreciate the great rock music of 60s and 70s. They will always have a special place in my heart ❤️
Amazing timeless talent of S&G performing one of the all time great songs! Absolutely love Kodachrome and can listen to it over & over again. I find it very up-lifting. Great advertising for Kodak back in the day. Actually I do miss my Kodachrome (gone in 2009), fantastic film perfect for the summer/fall. I've gone digital like everyone else, but I think film had a certain charm & magic to it and couldn't wait for the slides to come back from processing! Thank you Paul Simon!
1973, great song, great music, turned 18 yrs old, joined the USMC. Miss those days, dated a lot of girls back then. Transport me back to 1973, I'd stay there.
I love the music and I like just looking at the close-ups of their faces, they seems so at ease (tho I know it's hard work). Thanks a million SimonGarfunkel.

40-year old Russian here. I totally agree with you, friend.
Sometimes their harmonies are so perfect, you can't distinguish one voice from another. It becomes one voice.
No earplugs no autotune straight from the brain!
The level of talent of these guys is extremely rare in any time.
+Roy Garcia Right! so Awesome!
Roy Garcia why do singer's where ear plugs🐒
Lol those are in-ear monitors, it's so the singer can hear the balance between their voice and the mixed band more clearly than they otherwise would via the use of standard PA monitors (loudspeakers). Im certain if they were more practical and cost-effective in the 70s/80s, this group would have used them then as they do today. The lack of autotune is always nice though.
Roger Leduc Thanks I don't think they would make much difference with me as I tone death 🐒
I scrolled down comments and no one mentions that this is a version where he sings everything looks better in black and white. Great.
Either better or bitter

O
tv sure looks better in black and white. it hurt my eyes as soon as we got color tv and till this day.
I noticed that!
well spotted!!!
My Dad was a 30-year Kodak employee before he retired. Now I know why he liked buying Simon & Garfunkel albums.
Kodak was an outstanding company for a great many years!!
Are you from Rochester?
And between 1979 and 2004, I can't tell you I shot tons of Kodachrome--have at least 6,500 slides!
Kodachrome 25 was the best if you could be that steady. And of course it had to go into a Nikon camera.

Paul Simon is such a genius. One of his masterpieces 💕
Art always looks so chill live.. Like he's just humming on a street corner.. Real skill
Amazing harmony so edfortleaa..Art just so amarzing.

Arts has the voice, Simon writes the beautiful music 🎶
He sings very sexy. No instruments to worry about.. Only his voice.....he is very relax but hit the song beautifully.... Love you sir Art....
コンビを解散して10年後ぐらいの復活コンサートだったかなあ この頃の２人はまだ若い！でも2022年の今もお二人はご健在で活躍中、素晴らしい！S &Gよ 永遠に❗️

This old lady has to comment on how handsome they both are. The music is such a bonus!
I was there and a fabulous concert of all my favorite songs of Art and Paul! Great harmony and lyrics! ❤️
I was also there and was even able to purchae a poster ad t-shirt , both of which I still have, from the evening.
If I had a time machine, one of the places I would go is this concert
You are a Lucky woman😀

I love the magic that happens when you put these two voices together
i like how art never knows what to do with his hands
that honestly feels like a part of his image as a dorky sensitive guy, but who knows, maybe he really doesn't know - only singer who sings with hands in his pockets :D
Art's hands make him so tender, sweet and lovely!!!
he should have a rubik's cube and be solving it as he croons
Joey Korsmit it seems that it's an added points for him while singing in his angelic and soulful voice- makes him more charming!
i think a lot of it has to do with the fact that this is Paul Simons song and not a Simon & Garfunkel song. its well documented that these 2 couldnt get along anymore. so maybe that has something to do with it
They didn't look in each other's direction once!Wonderful chemistry.
My grandparents, who are also my Godparents played this all the time. RIP my godfather, Ralph, age 86. I miss you every day!
Hope Grandma's fine!
Oh my gosh I say 1990 in your name and I thought this coment was posted 1990 I was like "no frickin' way"

Hello Marcia
How are you doing today?
The world today is the energy of Art Garfunkel's hands
(Kodachrome)
When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school
It's a wonder I can think at all
And though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall
Kodachrome
Gives us those nice bright colors
Gives us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day
Oh! yeah!
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
Brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks better in black and white
Kodachrome
Gives us those nice bright colors
Gives us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day
Oh! yeah!
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So Mama don't take my Kodachrome away

I saw Maybellene in a coup de ville
A Cadillac a-rolling on the open road
Nothing will outrun my V8 Ford

She's bumper to bumper rolling side by side.
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh! Maybellene, why can't you be true?

A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
The Cadillac looking like it's sitting still
And I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill.
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh! Maybellene, why can't you be true?

I’ve got bipolar but anytime I feel down I put this song on & it immediately makes me smile 😊 & I start dancing round the room it’s my Friday song lol 😝
For some reason Slip Slidin does the same for me
YES!!!
Paul Simon, great talent!
Great music & memories of life, legendary hall of fame group for over 50 years
Blasting out of my car speakers, tearing down the road! 😄 The best way to experience these guys! 👍
From 4:50 to 5:15 in the album, there are 2 great solos (guitar and sax) that have unfortunately been removed from this video...i really don't get why, but I advise you all to go and listen to them, it's like a kind of fireworks...what a band (singers + musicians) !!!
Fafa Lolo right i have no idea why they were removed so weird
I'm so desperate not to see them and to see them play, it's a huge frustration. But thank you for confessing your involuntary crime to me, I wait for this moment every time I listen to the concert, it is sorely missed.
Love how this songs changes tempo at the 3' mark. Really brings it to another level.
There are a short few reasons to getting old and one of them is to be able to have the ability to remember S&G and grow up knowing them. Love to both!!!
Incredible band they had on that night.
Absolutely killed it on this cosmic night.
That band was largly made up of Pauls SImon's then current backing band some of which were in the movie One Trick Poney with him.
@@lsachs07 OK I really have to find that now
This is Paul‘s One Trick Pony Band.
This is a deceptive difficult song to sing & play. Paul & Art are the real deal.
Paul Simon was so handsome back then 😍
We all were back then 🤣🤣🤣
when my mind went insane and i lost myself ..their music brought me comfort and sanity ..
He folds his hands..it shows that he is simple and humble. I love to here all ur songs. God bless you.
Simon, my genius. If yo read this, know t hat. Love from a song-heart from the start in 1965.
Listening to them sing on my Bose headphones is a whole new experience! DAMN they're good...
I absolutely adore and love this song! It's a mixed feeling of sadness and happiness..
Those two songs are by far their best songs.And also very underated
Did you guys ever wonder what really made you break up? Break "the spell of the program". You are the greatest team ever! You are the dream team!
It's really not hard to figure out if you've seen either of them in interviews. Neither was blessed with humility and both knew that they were indispensable to the group's success - Paul did all the writing and the group would have gone nowhere without Art's singing. And yet they are still friends today. They were 40 years old at that concert it was not reasonable then to expect them to still be carrying on like they were half a lifetime ago. When the Rolling Stones got back together in 1989 people were shocked, it was not normal then for bands to stay together their whole lives. Five albums for Art and Paul was a good run.
my guess is: Paul was too talented and Art was too goodlooking :D and neither of them could take it
@@sallybowles2781 yes you are right i thought so Art was too good looking and his voice was absolutely great and Paul writing songs and played guitar what a combination equals perfect harmonies. They are truly a legend.
Fantastici S& G ho 78 anni e non mi stanco mai di ascoltarvi, siete un mito
Amazing concert, amazing music, amazing guys...I always listen with my heart this duo and sometimes I wonder if the youngs of today know anything about them...
We're all awake, knowing what you all trying to say 💖💪🙏 thank you for generations of blessings.💖
Some of the best music ever played live! 19th September 1981....
as 17 year old kid and big S&G fan my uncle took me from europe to NY for a short holiday. my big suprise there was we went to the concert on my birthday 19th of sept 1981
This song is my favorite
Art doesn't need to know what to do with his hands...all he has to do is open his mouth and that incredible Angelic voice just quietly blows you away!!!!!!!
I love this version better than Simon's solo version, I used to watch the shit out of this, bloody missed it, thanks for posting
Wow, what a masterpiece of the great Paul Simon!
How good to hear this duo, congratulations for posting this video.
D, The concert in Central Park was a landmark event, have it(on cassette!!!!!). It gave me so much pleasure, this concert, these 2 greats
This song is so catchy
brilliant stuff.... real music real live performance, doesn't happen like this anymore. Rock on.
Garfunkel not knowing what to do with his hands = everyone during school presentations
Yes!!! So funny watching his awkwardness!!! He looks like he often just wants to bust out dancing but instead, awkwardly folds his arms in front of his chest😉😉
I get it in a way. I cant sing though, but if im really moved by music or loving it and im with other people i want to dance or something. But i have zero rhythm. I feel like he is feeling what he is singing deeply. But is unsure how to express it on a physical level beyond the beauty of his voice. Makes him very endearing though for sure.
It would have been nice if he swayed a bit or stomped his feet...😊 but again not his style... regardless,i love them both.
Heather Nance YES👍
And Ricky Bobby
Love both and their music. This concert has 40 years old, OMG!!! And I watched here in Brazil at Brazilian TV in 1982.
I love how garfunkel never looks like he's trying that hard, makes it look so easy
The mark of a true professional...they make the difficult look easy!
john smith Actually hes said he found it really hard. He particularly thought his singing that day in central park was weak. That kinda drive for perfection is what made them both great
yeah, they both just look so chill up there. Maybe they smoked weed
It´s easy for him asuhushusauhuhsa
There's no maybe about it.
Grossartig, man kann sich nur immer wiederholen, bei dem Video merkt man, wie gut drauf die sind, besonders Paul!
Was wäre ich gerne dabei gewesen!
I bought my first guitar bc of Paul Simon...I will always love both Simon and Garfunkel
My teen heroes, got me through those yrs a bit easier ;) Still, they have those voices, which touches my soul, and heart. And all those lyrics sits, since the records are so so played over and over... Thanks for your beautiful music
I always loved that part with that girl sitting on that's blokes shoulders in audience, both look so happy,
This is the best live show ever.
Best nite in Central Park EVER!
It was around 1999-2000 and I was 11 years old when I first came into this CD from my dad’s collection and that I wanted to listen to, for some reason. It was the Concert in Central Park and I adored it right from the start. I did not even know english very well at the time (I am italian) but I was hypnotized by the music itself. This track, Kodachrome/Maybelline was one of my favorites. I soon understood I would never be quite the girl who listened to the pop song of the moment as the other teenegers, and very soon I had gone through all Queen and Pink Floyd discography. Now that I am 31, I have a bit changed my opinions on pop music, but still I have to thank Simon and Garfunkel for letting me appreciate the great rock music of 60s and 70s. They will always have a special place in my heart ❤️
wow both of them have that voice control
Amazing timeless talent of S&G performing one of the all time great songs! Absolutely love Kodachrome and can listen to it over & over again. I find it very up-lifting. Great advertising for Kodak back in the day. Actually I do miss my Kodachrome (gone in 2009), fantastic film perfect for the summer/fall. I've gone digital like everyone else, but I think film had a certain charm & magic to it and couldn't wait for the slides to come back from processing! Thank you Paul Simon!
They go together like peanut butter and jelly!
ironically there friendship wasn't that way
paulsimongirl damnnnn it
Oh sexy Paul Simon. Even today July 2022 at age 80. 🥰. Oh ya and always loved his music. 🎼🎸🎤
what a classic, it gets stuck in my head sometimes & I have to watch this again! what a crowd in Central Park
1973, great song, great music, turned 18 yrs old, joined the USMC. Miss those days, dated a lot of girls back then. Transport me back to 1973, I'd stay there.
I love them, real music!!
My parents used to play them when we were kids 😉
I love the music and I like just looking at the close-ups of their faces, they seems so at ease (tho I know it's hard work). Thanks a million SimonGarfunkel.
