Paul: Mr. Greenberg, where's Artie?

Sanford: Oh, Mr. Simon, Arthur's right beside me, my arm in his arm, guiding my way. He's my dearest friend, who stood by me when I was shrouded in darkness, following behind me and watching over me. Thank you so much for giving him to me.

Adding some detective findings for @bridgeoverstrawberryfields and @times-up-alone-tonight regarding your blog / theory on Paul’s 1960’s right hand ring. You mentioned it possibly being from Artie because Paul stopped wearing it after the break up. 💍

Randomly stumbled upon possible Photographic Evidence: 📷 Both boys wearing right hand rings 👬

Exhibit 1) Art wearing a ring on his right hand. Exhibit 2) pic probably same concert - they both have rings on their right hands. 🤔 …perhaps Art just kept his in his pocket most the time, less obvious and he wasn’t a jewelry guy. That is… If in fact they did have matching rings… 🧐

#digging deeper #mystery origins #possibilities #awww #lets just call it matching love rings #fr #further csi work remains #feel free to join the search party #more detectives the merrier #the truth is out there 🧐🤔💍

Most people’s gay anthem is born this way, but old person tumblr’s gay anthem is bleecker street by Simon and Garfunkel

Maybe already you have known, I’ve read before this.

I'll be presenting all of Simon's original compositions, and I'll start with a song that is of particular interest to us. Bleecker Street is an early indication of Paul's poetic lyrics, an oblique snapshot of a street in New York. The second verse went like this: "Voices leaking from a sad caféSmiling faces trying to understandI saw a shadow touch a shadow's handOn Bleecker Street" This was interpreted by many, and especially by many gay people at the time, as referring to a gay meeting place. It was never officially confirmed or denied, but the song was "adopted" by the gay community. For a long time, there was the impression that Simon & Garfunkel were gay, or at least bisexual. This was especially prevalent within the gay community in the 70s and early 80s. Perhaps it was the acrimonious nature of their breakup, which implied a bond that went way beyond professional concerns. I remember an American friend visiting in 1979; he introduced me to the Spartacus Gay Guide. He was also wearing a T-shirt that listed all the famous gay people throughout the ages. Among Alexander the Great, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Constantine Cavafy, there were also Simon & Garfunkel. I was pleasantly surprised, because they were already one of my favorite acts. When I asked for verification, he replied with an unwavering "of course they are". Those were the pre-Internet days.

I'd like to bring these photos to your attention.

[onlovestreetwithjimmorrison]

I want to know when and where this Artie bathtub picture is from.

[igashy]

I’ve seen these pictures in the book, its title was “Rolling Stone Visits Saturday Night Live“

I feel like I need to comment on the latest firestorm surrounding Artie’s comments in his latest interview. I feel he is being unfairly bashed. His comments are being taken out of context. I am also sick of people saying he hasn’t done anything and has faded in to oblivion. That is simply not true. Has he been as successful as Paul? No he hasn’t but that doesn’t mean he has done nothing either. Artie has a successful and interesting career and he’s done things outside of his career that are really interesting. This is a man who has read over a thousand books and has walked across America, Japan and Europe. His poetry is deep, meaningful and moving. He has a big heart and is humble and gracious. He is also very appreciative of his fans. I wish the people bashing him could take a few minutes to see he’s not the person they think he is.

Sorry for the rant but I am sick of all the Artie bashing lately. I will always stand up for him and defend him because I think he has been misunderstood and misjudged over the years.

Hello! Do you know of any photos of Paul's first wife Peggy?

Hi! There used to be a very good Paul Simon fansite called The Dreamer of Music that had a few photos of Peggy, but it was taken down last year, in part because of a request from Harper Simon that the webmasters remove all information about him and his mother from the site. 

However, here's a nice gifset from the Songs of America TV special where you can see Peggy walking with Artie and Paul. 

Thanks for your question!

I've found this before, FYI;)
