Podcasts about Garfunkel

This episode is a unique blend of sports analysis and British charm, as the speaker chats with Giants Insider Susan Slusser about the latest developments in the world of baseball. From the Giants' surprising comeback to the potential trades that could shape their future, this conversation has something for every baseball fan. Susan Slusser joins the show from England, where she's waiting in line for a Paul Weller concert with her friends. But don't worry, she's still got her finger on the pulse of the Giants, and she shares her insights on the team's recent performance. The conversation covers everything from Bryce Eldridge's impressive grand slam to the potential trade of Logan Webb. With her trademark bluntness, Susan shares her thoughts on the Giants' current situation and what it might mean for their future. One of the highlights of the episode is Susan's discussion of Matt Chapman's resurgence, which has been a topic of much debate among fans. She also talks about the emergence of Dylan Smith, a young player who's been making waves in the Giants' bullpen. And, of course, no episode would be complete without some fun conversation about music - in this case, the classic tunes of Simon and Garfunkel. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Hello darkness my old friend I've come to talk with you again”. How many of you remember "The Sounds of Silence” by Simon and Garfunkel? We are showing our age on this one!Art Garfunkel (yes, that's his real name) said, “the song is fundamentally about the inability to communicate and, consequently, the inability to genuinely love one another.”Joseph experienced his own “Sounds of Silence” and darkness, his old friend. Nearly killed, thrown in the pit, sold into slavery, tossed into prison, and then the “sound of silence” waiting 2 years for a former prisoner to remember him before Pharaoh. Can you imagine the level of frustration? I mean we get frustrated when someone doesn't respond to our text right away. The nerve of some people!What was Joseph's response to the “sound of silence” he endured? Hmmmm. It's amazing how God had a plan and a purpose through it all to raise up one man, to save his own family and ultimately God's people. Read Joseph's story again in Genesis. I dare you!Bill Wilkinson

Paula Arenas habla en exclusiva con La Clave Pop sobre Nada Es Permanente, su cuarto álbum independiente y el más personal de su carrera. La cantautora colombiana, con 13 nominaciones al Latin GRAMMY® y dos al GRAMMY®, lanzó un proyecto que es mucho más que un disco: una colección de memorias envasadas como conservas, con canciones inspiradas en la música de los 70 de José Luis Perales, Roberto Carlos, los Carpenters y Simon & Garfunkel.En esta entrevista, Paula conversa con Marysabel Huston sobre los dos años que le tomó hacer este álbum: el cambio de equipo, el embarazo inesperado, la pérdida de su abuelo y cómo todo eso terminó convirtiéndose en canciones. Nos cuenta cómo fue asumir un rol de coproductora junto a Sebastián Mejía y María Elisa Ayerbe, cuál es el concepto visual de cada canción del disco, y qué significa “No Te Esperaba”—el focus track— en su propia historia de vida. También habla de su uso de la inteligencia artificial en los visualizers y de su sueño de llevar este álbum a los escenarios.Sigue a Marysabel Huston en sus redes sociales: Instagram y Threads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@marysabelhuston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@marysabelhuston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Marysabel.Huston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X (antes Twitter): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@hustonmarysabel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Marysabel Huston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Créditos: Producción ejecutiva, edición y mezcla por Marysabel HustonMúsica: Una producción de Techy Fatule

"Of Ghosts And Gods" The New Jersey-born, Harvard educated David Berkeley is one of modern music's true renaissance men. Now, people throw that term out a tad lazily but in the case of Berkeley, it truly fits. Aside from releasing close to ten perfect albums, including The Confluence, Some Kind Of Cure and Oh Quiet World, Berkeley is an author, a label owner, and he's been a river rafting guide, a band manager, a travel writer and a creative writing teacher. A writer of tremendous depth, focus and sensitivity, much like Paul Simon or Nick Drake, Berkeley has the uncanny ability to slow the world down and hold it still. Informed by actual geography as well as the geography of loss and emotional reconstruction, Berkeley's songbook is a wondrous collection of compositions that gaze out at the map of the human heart with effortless poeticism and grace. He's toured with Billy Bragg, Ben Lee and Gary Jules, appeared on This American Life and played South By Southwest and he's one of the most consistently critically-acclaimed musicians around. He's also one half of the aforementioned transatlantic folk duo Sons Of Town Hall. Along with singer/songwriter Ben Parker, Sons Of Town Hall are hard to describe, but I'm going to try. Under the guises of Parker's George Ulysses Brown and Berkeley's Josiah Chester Jones, Sons Of Town Hall are fictitious 19th Century Victorian-era vagabonds who sing about their travels by way of a kind of magical hand-built raft. Falling somewhere between Coleridge, Lord Byron by way of Simon and Garfunkel's Wednesday Morning, 3AM, Sons Of Town Hall's new album Of Ghosts and Gods is a stirring collection of songs about travel, friendship, following your heart and staying afloat while doing it. www.davidberkeley.com (http://www.davidberkeley.com) www.sonsoftownhall.com (http://www.sonsoftownhall.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers The Podcast: IG + BLUESKY + THREADS: @emberspodcast

We are diving into television, music, movies, and all things pop culture in 1966.Here they come, walkin' down the street. Television in 1966 was the crossroads between black and white and color, the same old same old and new and exciting, and crafting shows to appeal to the younger generation. The Monkees, Batman, and Star Trek were new hits. My Mother the Car? Not so much.It's all incense and peppermints as we look at all things Music in 1966. The sharp turn from safe and bland pop into psychedelics and counterculture. The Beatles, the Stones, Dylan, and the Beach Boys dominated while Hendrix, Cream, and Simon and Garfunkel staked their claim as next up.The Top 5 features weird and funny news stories from 1966.

We check in with Maynard James Keenan as he comes to the same conclusion about human “modern communication” that Simon & Garfunkel did in 1964. Finally, an ER story about a Real Rocker child.

Paul Simon set the standard for a New American Songbook. Reviewing these selections one is struck by the elegance of his melodies - on a par with that other Paul from Liverpool, but with a lyrical sophistication to rival America's Nobel Laureate poet, Bob Dylan. “America”, as performed here by David Bowie, presents a barren landscape, - mirroring the mundane with the spiritual - to rival the literary prowess of a Hemingway; and the classically inspired “American Tune,” as interpreted by the wizard of New Orleans, Allen Toussaint, quietly goes to the heart of our nation's ambivalence. I can't contain my tears whenever I hear it. Simon and Garfunkel were known as a unified entity. It took awhile for Paul to extricate himself from his childhood performing partner, Artie. Garfunkel, with his singular, choir-boy voice, needed Simon to provide the words for his divine instrument.  But Simon didn't need Garfunkel, and if Artie's acting ambitions hadn't interfered with Paul's musical ones, Simon might never have had the confidence to go it alone. Lucky for us it turned out the way it did. Because, since going solo, Simon has amassed a body of work that defines America's last half century. Ray Charles: Still Crazy After All These YearsDavid Bowie: AmericaJustin Townes Earle: GracelandThem: Richard CoryWailin' Jennys: Loves me Like a RockEverything but the Girl: The Only Living Boy in New YorkAnnie Lennox: Something So RightThe Blue Airplanes: The Boy in the BubbleBlossom Dearie: 59th St. Bridge Song Allen Toussaint: American Tune

We've decided to do a deep dive on some of our favourite albums to explore the stories behind them.What did the artists really think of each other? Where did the inspirations from the songs come from?Joining Andrea to discuss is Alan Buckley from the Irish Rock ‘N' Roll Museum Experience, who's going to talk through Simon & Garfunkel's ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water'!

Send us Fan MailA Dorset walk to a walled garden. Light dancing on water. A motto whispered at crossroads: onwards and upwards. Linda Jacob invites us into a life built on fairness, quiet courage, and the everyday craft of choosing our response when events feel out of hand. We talk about here roots in Buckinghamshire, a grandmother named Florence who taught kindness without gossip, and the determined climb from leaving school early to earning skills through night classes and long bus rides. One formative moment—watching a senior leader belittle a colleague—sparked a promise to lead with dignity, a pledge she kept across decades in social work, supported housing, pubs, and company directorships.The centre of gravity is service. Linda shares intimate, hard-won stories from homelessness support, including a young father who, after months of learning and resolve, won custody and a new home for his child. These are victories measured in confidence regained, routines restored, and doors opened. Her inspiration comes from ordinary people facing extraordinary pressure and from the disciplined habit of finding a usable positive in the negative. We explore how she practises emotional agency—separating content from reaction—and why “Just for today” remains a practical anchor for focus and wellbeing.There's tenderness, too: Halcyon days in the long spring of 1975 when her first child Brennan was born; music that holds memory—Simon and Garfunkel's Bookends, the ache of Going Home; and a signature coffee cake taught by Nanny Taylor that became a small community legend. We linger at twilight, that moment when day blends into night, and consider legacy without fanfare: protect dignity, pass on what works, laugh when you can, make one good thing well and share it. Linda also speaks candidly about facing serious illness and her plan to turn hardship into guidance for fellow social workers, transforming pain into a map others can use.Come for the stories; stay for the tools. If you value humane leadership, homelessness advocacy, emotional resilience, and the restorative pull of nature, you'll find a generous guide here.

Welcome to the show. Some creative people tell stories. Others build entire worlds with language — worlds that allow us to see ourselves, our history, and our moral struggles with greater clarity. Today's guest is one of those rare builders. Jeff Meschel is a playwright, author, and lifelong student of music whose work lives at the intersection of literature, history, and the Jewish experience. Living in Israel, he writes with a perspective shaped by both the ancient pulse of Jewish civilization and the urgent complexities of modern life in the Jewish state. His work spans an extraordinary range — from theater to journalism, from blogging to music criticism — always circling the same enduring questions: Who are we? What shapes us? And what does it mean to create something that lasts? His remarkable novel, The Greatest Band That Never Was, is a deeply imaginative journey into music, memory, and missed possibility. It explores a haunting idea — that history is filled with brilliance that almost happened. Through humor, insight, and cultural reflection, Jeff captures not only the romance of music, but the deeper human longing to leave something behind that endures. As a playwright, Jeff understands that the stage is more than performance — it is a space where ideas breathe, where characters wrestle with truth, and where audiences are invited into conversations that linger long after the curtain falls. Beyond the page, Jeff's life reads like a cultural tapestry. He has interviewed a young Simon and Garfunkel, written about music since the days of Rubber Soul, and even shared a moment — a kiss — with Janis Joplin. His lifelong devotion to music has earned him his own title: Music Promulgator. Today, we'll explore his passion for storytelling, his obsessive love of music, his reflections on identity, and what it means to create art in Israel during deeply consequential times. A husband, a father, a saba, and a truly original voice — Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Jeff Meschel. Baruch ha'bah. Welcome! ——

This week I wanted to stick with movies that came out with soundtracks that felt current when the films were released. Not older songs brought in to set a mood, and not a random collection pulled together afterward, but albums that felt tied to the moment the studio was trying to sell.Fast Times at Ridgemont High, from 1982, is a good example. The soundtrack album came out that July, and Jackson Browne's “Somebody's Baby” reached number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, so the movie clearly had a connection to what people were hearing at the time. There was also some push and pull behind the scenes. Amy Heckerling later said some of the music choices reflected producer pressure as much as her own sense of the characters, which only makes the film feel more like a real snapshot of the early 1980s.Purple Rain, from 1984, is an even stronger case, because the movie and soundtrack are almost impossible to separate. The album came out on June 25, 1984. “When Doves Cry” was released in May, and “Let's Go Crazy” followed in July, so the film reached theaters with Prince already dominating the culture around it. I also like that “When Doves Cry” came out of a specific request from director Albert Magnoli. It was not just a Prince song sitting around waiting to be used. It was part of the movie as it was taking shape.Less Than Zero, works a little differently. People do not usually talk about its soundtrack with the same reverence, but it was still very plugged into late 1987. The Bangles recorded “Hazy Shade of Winter” for the film, and it went to number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, which gave the soundtrack real chart power. The rest of the album also feels very rooted in its time, with Rick Rubin producing and artists like LL Cool J and Public Enemy sharing space with a sharper, louder Simon and Garfunkel cover. It really feels like a late 1987 attempt to pull different parts of current music into one package.Then there is Singles, from 1992, which may be the best example here of a soundtrack capturing a scene while it was still happening. The album came out on June 30, 1992, a few months before the movie opened, and it included Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains, along with Paul Westerberg, who also worked on the score. Cameron Crowe later called it more of an anti soundtrack, basically a souvenir of that scene instead of a tidy album built to sum up the movie. That feels right to me. It was not trying to seem current. It actually was current. Even the gap between the album release and the film helped give it that feeling.So that is the set this week. Four movies, four different kinds of soundtrack success, and four reminders that music can tie a film to its moment just as much as clothes, locations, or dialogue can. One caught the early 1980s world of radio and mall record stores. One became a hit album right alongside the movie. One used a major single to help define its identity. One caught a local scene before it had even settled into history. Those are the kinds of rentals I always like talking about, movies that bring back not just the film, but the moment when it first showed up.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Some of the most powerful moments in parenting happen in the front seat of a truck. On a drive through Palm Harbor, Florida, Michael was listening to the Beatles' We Can Work It Out with his son Kyle when John Lennon's bridge section stopped them both in their tracks. That moment sparked a lifelong conversation about music — one that would later move his daughter Cassandra to tears listening to Simon & Garfunkel's America. From Glenn Miller's big band to the British Invasion, Michael reflects on why passing down a love of music is one of the greatest gifts a parent can give.

Kate shares her origin story as a ukulele player and she goes through her colorful resumé of odd jobs, which included a stint as a professional sand castle architect. Plus, Kate’s new children’s book, The Monster and Puppet Show, is all about setting boundaries! Hear it all on a new issue of Teen Beat!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The iconic folk duo met at an audition for the only country music band at a prestigious jazz school in Boston. They immediately clicked, and joined the rich lineage of Americana artists that stretches back centuries.In their 20s, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings discovered they had something special when they sang together, a sort of eerie emotional resonance that is usually confined to the blood harmonies produced when siblings sing together.Ever since they've been making music together which draws on the bluegrass, country and folk traditions they love.In their historic recording studio in Nashville, Tennessee (which has withstood three tornadoes in the last century), they craft haunting songs about the ugly and beautiful parts of humanity.For Gill and Dave, the DNA of folk music is something we can all contribute to, and which contributes to all of us.Gillian Welch and David Rawlings are currently touring Australia's eastern states. You can find information about where and when they are playing on their website.Their seventh studio album is called Woodland, named after their indestructible studio.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris.

Entrevista con el acordeonista y compositor francés Vincent Peirani, al que hemos podido escuchar en los últimos años en discos al frente del quinteto Living Being, a dúo con el saxofonista Émile Parisien, en diversos tríos o con el cuarteto que forma con Ballaké Sissoko, Vincent Segal y Parisien. De su prodigioso acordeón salen dos improvisaciones basadas en 'The sounds of Silence', de Simon & Garfunkel, y 'Bebê' de Hermeto Pascoal.Escuchar audio

Simon & Garfunkel singen 1964 in "The Sound of Silence" über eine schweigende und technisierte Gesellschaft. Roland erinnert das an Menschen, die heute auf´s Smartphone glotzen. Und er findet Cover, die mit dieser Stille arbeiten.

Max Pradera parte de la falsa obertura renacentista que Rod Stewart coló en “Maggie May” para demostrar que el pop siempre ha bebido de la Edad Media y el Renacimiento. De “Scarborough Fair”, rescatada por Martin Carthy y popularizada por Simon & Garfunkel, a “The House of the Rising Sun”, electrificada por The Animals; pasando por la falsa antigüedad de Maria del Mar Bonet y el medievalismo progresivo de Jethro Tull.

If you need confirmation of Hollywood's vast influence on mass culture, look no further than the pop charts. From the 1937 classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs through this year's KPop Demon Hunters, soundtracks have launched hits, defined genres—and sometimes even eclipsed the films that inspired them in the first place. Rock classics, funk jams, rap bangers, even Christmas standards: all became hits because we heard them first at the cinema.

“I will say, as someone who has auditioned hundreds and hundreds, if not over a thousand, voiceover artists and listened to very talented people doing the same take over and over again, the recording quality, the sound quality, absolutely matters. And it's an immediate… There are so many people for me where it's an immediate ‘no,' because the moment I hear the sound quality and it's not totally up to a pro level, I assume tons of things about that.” – Wil Seabrook This episode's guest is a former Warner Bros recording artist and the founder of two award-winning creative agencies, and he's produced over 8,000 videos and commercials for some of the world's biggest and most successful companies. His name is Wil Seabrook, and this week we'll be talking about how sound design affects his creative process, what people should keep in mind about sound when it comes to their own projects, and what role he sees AI playing in the short and long term when it comes to sounds of all sorts.

(0:00:01) - Musicians' Early Sound Influences and JourneysAs our conversation starts, Wil recall his earliest memories of sound, and the impression that hearing a Simon & Garfunkel song made on both him and his parents. “I came home from preschool,” he recalls, “and I was talking to my mother, and I kept saying Funkle, Funkle. She's like, ‘what the heck are you talking about? You want a pencil?' And she finally figured out that I wanted to listen to Simon & Garfunkel.” He talks about his early career as a musician, some of his missteps along the way and how he's helped his son avoid them, and how social media has transformed the music scene. “I think the rise of social media,” he says, “the way things have changed in the last ten, fifteen years, you just realize what an incredible amount of talent there is in the world… now you can just sit down with your phone and a guitar and make a beautiful noise and inspire people, and I do think that part's neat.”(0:08:57) - The Power of Music in CommunicationThe discussion continues as Wil talks about his shift from working with Fortune 500 companies to helping small businesses establish their brand, and the different approach it requires. “It's a much more emotional journey,” he explains. “But I get to be more helpful with more things. I'm not just creating content, I'm helping them put it out into the world, improve their business, and I find that fun and engaging.” He also offers some firsthand advice to voice actors who might find themselves frustrated with the auditioning process. “Don't automatically assume that you did something wrong,” he tells us, “or that you've made a mistake, or that you're not talented, or that you're not doing everything right. You could do everything right and still not be the person who gets...
