Product Description
Amazon.co.jp
ボブ・ディランの『追憶のハイウェイ61』や『ブロンド・オン・ブロンド』といったフォーク・ロックの名盤を手掛けたボブ・ジョンストンのプロデュースのもと、完成させた3rdアルバム（66年発表）。全米ナンバー・ワンになった前作『サウンド・オブ・サイレンス』にひきつづき、最高4位まで上がる大ヒットを記録。前作のフォーク・ロック路線を踏襲しながらもイギリスの民謡を下敷きにした「スカボロー・フェア／詠唱」など、その他のフォーク・ロック勢とはやや異なる多彩なサウンドに早くもアプローチしている。美しいハーモニーに加え、フォーク・ロック・ブームを皮肉った「簡単で散漫な演説」や「きよしこの夜」に当時の騒然とした社会状況を物語るニュースを重ねた「7時のニュース／きよしこの夜」などでは硬派な社会批評精神もアピール。そもそも「スカボロー・フェア」は反戦歌だった。（山口智男）
Amazon.com essential recording
When a retrofit of electric guitars transformed "Sounds of Silence" into Simon & Garfunkel's folk-rock entrée, the partners and their label hastily followed with a like-titled album mixing Paul Simon's acoustic folk songs with plugged-in bids for radio play. By contrast, this successor, released less than a year later, more coherently and convincingly reveals Simon's broadening horizons as a writer and the duo's nascent studio perfectionism. The title song remains a haunting signature piece, relying on acoustic guitar and harpsichord to carry its contrapuntal marriage of English ballad and antiwar plaint; such acoustic delicacy prevails throughout and has proven more durable than by-the-numbers wattage. The first great S&G album, the set includes "The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)," "Homeward Bound," "Dangling Conversation," and Art Garfunkel's luminous solo piece, "For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her." (The 2001 reissue adds a pair of unreleased demos to the original work.) --Sam Sutherland
