The Collected works of Simon and Garfunkel was my very first CD purchase. Let me assure you that all three of those disks saw a great deal of rotation back in the day (1987ish onward). The third disc was my favourite back then, as it was the most ‘modern’ of the trio and “Cecilia” was track number 3 and also one of my favourites.
I like what these intrepid soundcampers brought to the table with some coffee cups, rich harmonies and of course beans to shake all about.
One of the problems they had is that many of them were unfamiliar with the song. And I was like…whaa? How can you not be familiar with Cecilia? Then I was like…daaaamn…I must be getting old. :) Anyways, here is the behind the scenes stuff that led up to the take we see in the first video.
