Oh, interesting! I didn't know that Mark Hanson had published a Paul Simon songbook, so that is very good to know. It sounds like you have everything you need to work this song out, but I'm glad that my version might also be helpful, too. Regarding the hip joint thing, I also had my left hip joint replaced. My surgeon told me that for some reason about 60-70% of hip joint replacements are left side, which I found very interesting. You probably already knew this. I'm very glad that your hip joint replacement went well and that you are happy with the result. I know that they don't want people to continue running on these artificial joints, but I have been away from running for some years now. I am about 10 years older than you are, so I can't complain too much about the need for this surgery. I am doing pretty well considering the short time since surgery. I need to have my right joint replaced, too, but I might wait another year before going after this. The right side is not nearly as bad as the left was. Thanks for your feedback on all issues here, Bob! - Glenn

Does Paul Simon play that one on a 12-string on the studio recording? I seem to recall that he did not, but I could be wrong. Anyway, as usual, you nailed it. Very lovely. Thanks, Glenn! |

Yes, he played "For Emily" on a Guild F212 on the original recording. Here is a YouTube of that original recording. I note that Art Garfunkel's voice is doubled on the recording, which I don't think I recognized when I was younger, but now it seems so obvious. The Guild F212 may also be doubled, but I can't be sure. There sure is a lot of reverb on the recording based on today's generally much more spare use. I saw Simon & Garfunkel in concert in September, 1967 at Purdue University, a performance I will never forget. For the encore at the end, they came back and played "For Emily" and he used a Guild F212. Regards, Glenn
