Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel are elementary friends, and they used that connection to build a synergy that soon will pay off. As teenagers, they starred as Tom & Jerry and had their first minor breakthrough in the song Hey Schoolgirl in 1957. The major spotlight was on Simon & Garfunkel when they released their second album, Sounds of Silence, which was featured in the film The Graduate. Like in every partnership, disagreements are causing their break up in 1970, but their music still lives on as their final album, Bridge over Troubled Water, becomes one of the best-selling albums in the world. They also received Grammy Awards and were also inducted in the Hall of Fame of Rock and Roll.
