Art Garfunkel Breakaway (CD)

(Music On CD) 10 tracks,.

This second solo album sounds as fresh as when it was released in 1975. Here Art Garfunkel shows his most romantic, lush side, and he hits every song, every note, beautifully. Songwriters like Antônio Carlos Jobim, Stephen Bishop, Stevie Wonder, Gallagher & Lyle and Bruce Johnston, to name a few, provide lyrics and melodies that complement his unique voice beautifully. Tracks like "My Little Town," a Paul Simon tune, they sing together.

"I Only Have Eyes For You" is a song that originally dates back to 1934, and thanks to Andrew Gold's excellent musicianship and Stephen Bishop's backing vocals, they create a great version of this song. The album was produced by Richard Perry and supported by Steve Cropper, Crosby & Nash, Klaus Voormann and Nicky Hopkins, among others.
