Song of the Week - April Come She Will/ Simon and Garfunkel


Last Thursday I watched a repeat episode of Parks and Recreation. It was the one where April and Andy get married. When April walked down the aisle, I heard this song playing and I knew it was Simon and Garfunkel, but I couldn't quite place the tune. It's not one of their more popular ones, still, it's lush and beautiful nonetheless. I know it can be hard to get pass Art Garfunkel's angelic voice, but can I point out Paul Simon's brillant guitar playing! It took me years to realize what a genius he is on the guitar. He can make it sound like a whole band is playing. Parks and Recreation is the the coolest show on right now and that they used this song only solidifies it!

Didn't know this Simon and Garfunkel track you mentioned either. Have you heard Paul Simon's recent 2011 album? I particularly liked the tracks called Love and hard times, & The afterlife

I just picked up this CD. I have to give it a few more listens before I do a review, but the first time around I was digging it!
