BEHIND THE SHOT
This was taken 3 years after Simon and Garfunkel broke up. Everyone thought that they hated each other, so when Paul came out for the encore and announced that he would like to bring out a friend to sing a few songs with him, I, and everyone else, was shocked, but thrilled to see Art come walking out! I went through a quite an ordeal earlier that night to be in the position I was to get some shots of them together...(See Concert Chronicles for the whole story!!)
What struck me about this shot when I first looked at it is that I thought that Paul was looking out at the audience, but when I looked closer, I could see his eyes were looking over at Art as he was stepping up to an incredible ovation. Art was obviously thrilled, and from this, it seemed that Paul was happy to give his friend a minute in the spot.
I think they did the song 'My Little Town' together around that time - not sure which happened first....
