Simon and Garfunkel have appeared on stage together for the first time since their reunion performances in 2003 and 2004. The pair were in Washington for that previously reported concert, a tribute to Paul Simon organised by the US Library Of Congress to mark the singer songwriter's receipt of their inaugural Gershwin Award.
Simon introduced Garfunkel as his "dear friend and partner in arguments", before the duo performed 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' and 'Cecilia'. Simon was also joined by Ladysmith Black Mambazo, the choir who appear on the 'Graceland' album, for a performance of 'Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes'.
