This is one of the most delightful concerts I've ever seen. Art Garfunkel is - of course - supremely talented, and his voice and stage presentation are sublime here. But what a warm, genuinely pleasant person he appears to be when he's talking with his dvd audience. <br /> <br />His duet with James Taylor in Central Park is one of the most captivating songs I've ever heard. <br /> <br />And I would be remiss if I didn't mention that his wife's (she sings as backup on some of the songs) ethereal beauty is literally breathtaking - OMG! *Viewer Reviews* Art Garfunkel's solo career is hopefully getting the long overdue recognition it deserves - several of his solo records are easily on par with his longtime partner, Paul Simon, and his body of work ranges across some of the finest American songwriters: Jimmy Webb, Stephen Bishop, and, of course, Simon himself. This beautifully produced DVD at Ellis Island is a concert from 1996 and it is both incredibly moving and heartbreaking to see images of the former World Trade Center juxtaposed with the Statue of Liberty in a brief montage that bridges two of Garfunkel's finest musical moments: "All I Know," by Webb, and "Bright Eyes" from the movie, "Watership Down." James Taylor and Garfunkel even sing a duet, "Cryin' the Rain" with the Trade Center directly behind them. This is a concert for people who love New York City and all it represents. Garfunkel singing at Ellis Island and relating his own family history only adds to the poignant and powerful concert that follows. Many of his classics with Simon are here - a pitch perfect "Bridge over Troubled Water" and an ending song, "Grateful," that could not be better played or sung. Another treat: Garfunkel's then small son singing "Feelin' Groovy" along with him and his beautiful wife, who sings backup on several songs. There's not a false note here - for Garfunkel fans, and fans of good music, it's all here. A five star treat! Back To Top
