Decent introduction, but you'll want to hear more, Sep 4 1999
Par Un client
I like this CD mostly because it's a good intro to S&G, and if you're not too into them, I think you might be inspired to get other albums of theirs. That said, I hardly count some of these as "Greatest Hits." Yes, there's Sound of Silence (the best song ever--but not the best recording), Mrs. Robinson, The Boxer (get the live in Central Park album for a couple of cool verses not included in this track), Scarborough Fair/Canticle, Homeward Bound (a horrible recording--the one on Parsley Sage, Rosemary and Thyme is million times better), El Condor Pasa, and Cecilia, but there's also For Emily..., The 59th Street Bridge Song, Kathy's Song, and Bookends, hardly primo stuff. Okay--some very good songs, some not so good songs. Yeah, it's worth the money, just to get yourself acquainted, but you can find better recordings of the good songs, and plenty of other songs that *should* have been included among the "Greatest Hits" like Kodachrome/Maybellene, Patterns, Flowers Never Bend with the Rainfall, and American Tune. Better buy if you want the full monty of S&G--try the Old Friends compilation (which I've never heard because I already own all of their albums). For individual albums, try "Parsley Sage , Rosemary and Thyme," "The Concert in Central Park" (the sound quality isn't top notch, but a great and extensive selection of songs with a really punchy beat not found in a lot of studio recordings), and "Wednesday Morning, 3 a.m."
