- Simon and Garfunkel (RockHall.com)
"The dulcet harmonies of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel remain one of the more cherished sounds of the Sixties. The music made by the Forest Hills, New York, natives was fueled by a mutual love of early rock and roll and a search for inspiration beyond the conventional borders of folk and pop." 9-03
- Simon, Paul (InfoPlease.com)
Provides a short biography of the singer, songwriter, and guitarist. 2-02
- Simon, Paul (RockHall.com)
"Paul Simon is among the most erudite and daring songsmiths in popular music. After the breakup of Simon and Garfunkel in 1970, Simon embarked on a fruitful solo career that’s been notable for lyrical acuity, impeccable musicianship and stylistic daring. While Simon and Garfunkel worked largely (but not exclusively) in the folk idiom, Simon the solo artist has roamed wherever his muse has taken him - and that has literally meant around the world. His is not so much a conventional career in music as an odyssey of discovery using 'intuitive flashes, synaptic leaps and shorthand logic' (in Simon’s own words) to help him on his way." 9-03
