On
September 19, 1981, Simon and Garfunkel reunited in a fantastic mega
concert in New York's Central Park. They went on to tour heavily.
As
an '80s kid who also loved '60s music and culture, this concert was of
great interest to me. The concert film was often played on our local
PBS station, and I taped it on our VHS player. I'd often play back the
concert, and enjoy seeing the multi-generation crowd digging the reunion
of these two "old friends."
Music
was often a multi-generation thing in the '80s, with people of many
ages often together enjoying great musical artists. Time was not a
boundary.
