156--The Sounds of Silence

SIMON AND GARFUNKEL-1965

Written by: Paul Simon
Produced by: Tom Wilson
Released: Nov. '65 on Columbia
Charts: 14 weeks
Top spot: No. 1

Simon wrote this as an acoustic ballad, but Simon and Garfunkel's first single version died. While Simon was in England, Wilson, who was producing Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone," asked members of Dylan's studio band to add electric guitar and drums to Simon's song. Columbia released the amplified "Silence," which became a hit before Simon and Garfunkel had even heard it.

Appears on: Sounds of Silence (Columbia)
