Still Water 56

“He bugs me. He’s a wise-ass. But he’s also very funny - and laughs are a great tonic in life - and he’s my favorite musician. I’ve had shows where backstage I’ve hated him. And vice versa. But then we’ll be on stage and the three of us make this sound - me, him and the guitar, and we’re eleven once more, and in love all over again.”

— Art Garfunkel

rpf is literally art’s friend

randomly decided to redraw this :p

Paul Simon cape (and tie) & Art Garfunkel sweater appreciation post- London, c. October 1966.

Absolutely one million percent holding hands in the last one, it’s not even up for discussion.

“We didn’t talk to each other from the ages of 17 to 21… We were best friends. The love affair stopped with a bruise. People fall out. What else is new? I got over it because Paul was so damn good. I ran into him in Queens and he was so funny and smart that I dropped my old barrier, and when we started working together again we knew we were onto something. Paul started bringing the songs to me at Columbia College, where I was studying architecture. I was the midwife, pulling out and cherishing the babies as Paul kept giving birth.”
