Simon and Garfunkel rose to fame in 1965 backed by the hit single "The Sound of Silence". Their music was featured on the landmark film "The Graduate", propelling them further into the public consciousness.
The arrangement made famous by Simon and Garfunkel's Scarborough Fair/Canticle originated in the late 20th century. Paul Simon learned it in 1965 in London from Martin Carthy and set it in counterpoint with Canticle, a reworking of Simon's 1963 song "The Side of a Hill" with new, anti-war lyrics. It was the title track of the 1966 album Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, and was released as a single after featuring on the soundtrack to "The Graduate" in 1968.
