Bridge Over Troubled Water, the biggest-selling pop record of 1970, was the last joint effort by the two young singers Simon and Garfunkel. Everyone knows what Art Garfunkel has been doing since then: acting in Hollywood (Catch-22, Carnal Knowledge). But what of Paul Simon, the creative half of the team, the composer of Bridge and all those other hits like Sounds of Silence and Mrs. Robinson?
