Simon and Garfunkel’s Beloved Swan Song: Bridge over Troubled Water Features Meticulous Production, Gorgeous Songwriting, and Healing Spirit
Sourced from the Original Master Tapes: Mobile Fidelity’s Numbered-Edition Hybrid SACD Brings You Closer to the Record Rolling Stone Named the 172nd Greatest Album of All Time
Unifying, soothing, comforting: Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge over Troubled Water quickly became the album of an era upon release in 1970, the benchmark set serving as a beacon of hope and hymn of reassurance during a time marked by polarizing changes, social unrest, uncertain politics, and the dawn of a new era. These uplifting reasons – to say nothing about the gorgeous songwriting, meticulous production, and watershed performances – attest to why it is more relevant than ever in our current climate. Bridge over Troubled Water simultaneously suggests and proves that music heals all wounds and lifts all boats.

A remarkable job has been done with the 55 year old master tape here.
It was very well recorded to begin with, but Rob LoVerde and Shawn R. Britton have combined brilliantly to do this SACD mastering.
It sounds natural, balanced and detailed - more so than I have heard it previously. The separation between elements in the mix, the sound stage are just as they should be too. There is a good chance that even if you are familiar with this album you will hear things you have not noticed before and think it now sounds as it should.
Very much recommended.
