SIMON & GARFUNKEL LIVE 1969 - First and Only Official Album to Document 1969 Concert Tour - Arrives in Stores September 18th

In the fall 1969, at the absolute pinnacle of their decade-and-a-half working association, Simon and Garfunkel undertook a major North American tour. It would turn out to mark their final tour together for the next thirteen years.

Chronologically situated in the aftermath of Woodstock, and just weeks before Altamont, comes SIMON & GARFUNKEL LIVE 1969, a seventeen-song chronicle of the final tour, raising the curtain on what the duo felt like and sounded like in their seminal years. Gathering songs that were recorded during October and November in six cities -- Detroit, Toledo, Carbon dale, Illinois, St. Louis, Long Beach, and New York -- reissue producer Bob Irwin has seamlessly re- created the magic of those concerts. This eagerly anticipated C-D will arrive in stores September 18th on Columbia/Legacy.
