Old Friends (by Joe Morella and Patricia Barey) covers the dual biographies of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel.  While it may not be a definitive or all-inclusive look at their careers, it is still a good, entertaining starting point for listeners who know little about the duo, outside of their hits and albums.  There are a few factual errors scattered throughout, but the continuity of their parallel career paths helps the reader understand how the duo formed, how they worked together, what forced them apart, and despite the outcome, how they still remain old friends even today.  The timeline reaches back to their early childhood, up through Paul Simon’s “Rhythm of the Saints” solo release, along with their reunion concert in Central Park.  Old Friends is a good read, and I’m giving it 3-1/2 out of 5 stars.   Click here to view this book at Amazon.
