Concept album, career-making moment, industry-defying creation, years-long pursuit of perfection: Simon and Garfunkel’s ‘Bookends’ adheres to all those descriptions and more, the record at once a defining statement of the late 1960s and salient reflection on relationships, identity, society, and mortality whose enduring relevance attests to its exceptional merit. Ranked by countless sources as one of the greatest records of all time, the 1968 work transcends styles, trends, and generations.
Mastered on MoFi’s renowned system at the label’s California studio and housed in mini-LP-style packaging, Mobile Fidelity’s numbered-edition hybrid SACD of Bookends presents the duo’s timeless effort in reference-quality sound. Playing with superb clarity, definition, and purity, this collectible reissue magnifies the brilliance of the extended production sessions that took place over the course of 18 months at Columbia’s iconic 52nd Street Studio.
We recommend the use of „L’Art du Son” CD/DVD conditioner for even more sonic improvement.
