Art Garfunkel--All I Know (1973)

     Am not sure why, but have always been more of a fan of Simon & Garfunkel then of the two of them solo. It's not that they have not had moments. Paul Simon's first album post-S&G is very enjoyable and some of his 80's output (especially Graceland) is splendid. Art Garfunkel's fans are extremely loyal, but I've just never been a fan of his solo material....except for the album, "Angel Claire". One could say this release was very close vocally to "Bridge Over Troubled Water", which is maybe why I like it so much. No one could ever deny that Garfunkel had a gorgeous voice, but without the earthiness of Simon it soon  could wear one down (well...at least it did me). This song was his first single and it is amazing....
