Featuring Simon & Garfunkel’s studious folk and the easy listening of Dave Grusin, a new vinyl reissue attests that what makes a fascinating artifact does not always make for an especially good listen. The Graduate was perfectly timed for Simon & Garfunkel, who by 1967 had released three albums of studious folk music but were nevertheless losing ground to harder rock acts and grittier folkies like Bob Dylan and Neil Young. Nichols used three songs as placeholders during production: The Sound of Silence, their biggest hit to date; Scarborough Fair/Canticle, their cover of a centuries-old ballad that subtly doubles as an anti-war anthem; and April Come She Will, a short, plaintive B-side about the changing of seasons and moods. Together, they form something like Benjamin’s internal monologue, the quiet space in his head where he retreats from the din of the adult world.
The Graduate helped introduce Simon & Garfunkel to a wider audience, who bought the album and propelled it to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. It includes several of their top hits ("The Sound of Silence," "Scarborough Fair/Canticle"), along with portions of the immortal "Mrs. Music Direct - How We Pack Your Records.
