    Simon or Garfunkel

    Which one do you think has the better voice? I'm not talking about the most hits. I"ll go with Garfunkel.

    Tough call Ed.

    I like Paul Simon though. Kodachrome.

      I think Paul Simon is better voiced to be flexible with his choices of genre. Art Garfunkel is a marvelous singer, but I think folk music is his niche.

        Without a doubt, Paul Simon, although some of his later stuff sucks.

          Another one for Paul. and, his guitar work is very clean and crisp. Artie's voice is nice but not as soulful.

            I really like them together. Can I cheat like that? if not, I prefer Simon.

              Given a choice between a singer who plays an instrument well and one who doesn't I will usually choose the one who plays. Of course, I'm a musician not a singer so...

                Artie.

                I met him once in an elevator. Nice enough, though he has his eccentricities...

                  Uh uh...

                  Simon AND Garfunkel, or

                  Simon alone, or

                  Garfunkel alone.

                  Yeah, cheating.

                  BOTH great, better together.

                    It's really hard to argue that point.

                        Well, that would be pretty bad. Let's just say there was an "herbal" smell about him...
