Cultural Facts:

1. Career Turning: Bridge Over Troubled Water became Simon and Garfunkel’s final studio album, closing their partnership at the height of their commercial success.
2. Personal Struggle: Tension grew while Art Garfunkel spent months filming Catch-22 in Mexico, leaving Paul Simon to handle much of the writing and recording and worsening the divide between them.
3. Studio Lore: The title song began as a relatively simple gospel-inspired composition before expanding through Larry Knechtel’s piano, Garfunkel’s soaring vocal, and a dramatic orchestral arrangement.
