SOUNDS OF SILENCE * THE GAYLADS AND THE SOUL VENDORS * COXSONE 7002 * UK
The Paul Simon and Art Garfunkle song given the Rock Steady treatment at Brentford Road. There is something about the attempted verisimilitude as it reaches for that 'sound', being not quite the same, surpasses it, giving this version a transcendental quality.
See slao: Africa * This Time I Won't Hurt You * That's What Love Will Do * My Jamaican Girl * Accept My Apologies * Can't Hide The Feeling
