Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme

by Simon & Garfunkel

The 832nd greatest album of all time

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, released in 1966 by Simon & Garfunkel, showcases Paul Simon's literate songwriting and the duo's close two-part vocal harmonies. The album blends acoustic folk roots with folk rock and touches of pop and chamber-style arrangements, moving between gentle guitar-driven songs and more ornate, layered textures. Its lyrical material mixes pastoral and urban imagery and the production emphasizes clear, intimate vocals and melodic interplay.
