This second S & G album sounds partly atypical for the two guys from New York as electrically vertärkte instruments were inserted in many of the songs. Although this was certainly made to establish the duo in the commercial mainstream and make them known so, does the electric guitar of quality of world hits like "Sounds of Silence" or "I am a rock" not diminish. The same applies to the usual strong, lesser-known numbers, such as "Blessed" or "Leaves That are green". However, the particular complexity of this album is especially evident in the song "April Come She Will" and "Kathy's Song" (maybe my favorite song ever). Here prove S & G that an acoustic guitar with a singing voice can still act emotional and powerful than a complete rock band. Such great songs make the two "slip" "We've got a groovy thing going" and "Somewhere They Can not Find Me" quickly forgotten. Finally, I would draw your attention to the two social-critical parts derLP in which the text is almost remarkable as the music itself, "Richard Cory" poignantly portrays the example of a multi-millionaire, that money alone can not make you happy; and "A Most Peculiar Man" denounces the loneliness and isolation of people who do not want to include 100% strength in the adjusted society. Both men put their lives though an abrupt end, however, these songs and the whole album do not be sad; partly though thoughtful, but especially happy if the beautiful sounds.
