Traveling Through Time- Music Monday #AtoZChallenge

If you are looking for my Blogging from A to Z reflections post, click here.

Otherwise, welcome to my usual Music Mondays post.

My Blogging from A to Z "S" post about the 1960's duo Simon and  Garfunkel was so popular with my readers that I have decided to use Simon and Garfunkel songs starting with the letter T as the topic for today's Music Monday posts.

Just listening to these songs makes me travel through time and space to my teenage years spent in a housing project in the Bronx.

Hence....

The Sounds of Silence.

This is the original version - the hit single came from another album called "The Sounds of Silence". More recently, this song was covered with great success by a hard rock group called Disturbed.

The Only Living Boy in New York is a song perhaps not well known, but I love the harmonies in it and the parts recorded in an echo chamber.  The song foreshadows their 1970 breakup.

One more song - a hit, The Boxer. 

Memories of my childhood in the Bronx, brought back to me by music.

I am linking today with Cathy at Curious as a Cathy as Mewsicians Celebrate their birthdays.
Come join the fun with your music post!
