Popular Post Charlie E Posted April 25, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) I've been wanting to do a Paul Simon for my shop and while browsing some images last night I ran across this concert poster from 1968 which had an almost ready to scroll image. I've got a snapshot memory of being in a pool in Panama City, Florida 50ish years ago and hearing Cecilia for the first time. I picked up some 1X5" X 18" quarter sawn white oak at an estate sale for $1 a board. I edge glued it for this and the Bob Marley portrait. Love me some cheap hardwood!

Marg Ha, I hadn't notice the ticket prices. One of my favorite songs of theirs is, "The Sound Of Silence". In the "not judging a book by it's cover category" this group that I would never normally listen to did a fantastic cover of the song. I like it much better than the original. Disturbed "The Sound Of Silence" 03/28/16 - YouTube It made me realize how powerful the lyrics are.

spirithorse Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 Great work on the pattern and the cutting, Charlie, and thank you for the YouTube. I had never even heard of Disturbed. That was a powerful performance but, I also preferred the Simon and Garfunkle cover. Have you heard a version by a group called Pentatonix? They are an acapella group.
