Episode 10
Episode date - April 1, 2016
Never the most prolific songwriter, Columbia label head Clive Davis managed to squeeze a live album from Paul to serve as a stopgap measure between projects.
In the wake of “There Goes Rhymin’ Simon,” his profile as a solo artists started to soar, so Columbia Records hoped that a live release would keep the public focused on Simon and aid in his continued quest to be accepted wholly on his own rather than as half of a duo. Meanwhile, Art Garfunkel’s own solo projects were getting quite good as well. Grafunkel’s “Breakaway” album may be the high watermark of his solo career.
