Seven or eight years ago, Simon and Garfunkel came out with an extensive box set, (including never before released christamas songs and other unreleased stuff) ...
The real revelations to that set was that they went back to the origimal first generation session tapes from the vaults and the results were a sonic quality that was amazing.
I had the "Best of Simon & Garfunkel" CD that had been marketed for years, and while it didn't have the scratches of a LP record, I was always let down by the sonic quality, even for a sixties recording.
Now, this box set not only had literally no tape hiss to these recordings, but the crispness to those acoustic guitars and other instruments was amazing!
Anybody who only has the original "Best of" CD, I highly advise the remastered/restored box set.
