Paul Simon Performed By Simon & Garfunkel Additional Music By Dave Grusin - The Graduate FLAC album
Simon and Garfunkel Bootlegs.
The Graduate is an album of songs from the soundtrack of Mike Nichols' movie The Graduate, featuring many songs from the folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel as well as several instrumental pieces by Dave Grusin. Released on January 21, 1968, the album was produced by Teo Macero. Although the album features two versions of the acclaimed "Mrs. Robinson", neither is the full version as featured on Bookends.
Director Mike Nichols propelled the story with songs by the folk-rock duo and jazzy instrumentals by composer Dave Grusin. Released on Jan. 21, 1968, the film's soundtrack reached No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart. Nichols, who died in 2014, was surprised that "The Sound of Silence," performed by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, meshed so well with the film's narrative.
Simon & Garfunkel and Dave Grusin recorded a number of tracks for the movie soundtrack in 1967, but nothing coherent or useable. The Columbia Records Hollywood Crew were unable to assemble this material into a soundtrack album and the movie was about to be released. Columbia needed a soundtrack album fast. Columbia Records President called Jazz producer Teo Macero, who was not familiar with this project, into his office and told him that he had four days to assemble a soundtrack album for release with the movie. Simon & Garfunkel never acknowledged Mr. Macero’s efforts in producing two of their greatest hits. Anyway, the versions of the songs in this album are probably not the versions that you are familiar with.

The album began its life because of Nichols' enthusiasm for the duo's music, and Columbia Records chief Clive Davis' ability to persuade the pair of the importance of a soundtrack LP. Davis turned the actual making of the album over to producer Teo Macero, who approached it with skepticism - Paul Simon and Mike Nichols had discovered that they really weren't on the same page, with Nichols rejecting "Overs" and "Punky's Dilemma," songs that ended up as highlights of the Bookends album, issued two months after The Graduate soundtrack. The first is an instrumental, while the second is abbreviated, tapering off as it does in the film. However, the other major song of the album, "The Sound of Silence".
