After Simon and Garfunkel's 1970 breakup, both men entered the new decade as solo artists. Garfunkel tended toward adult-oriented pop, often interpreting the songs of composer/arranger Jimmy Webb, while Simon wrote and recorded wry, angst-filled songs (e.g., "Kodachrome," "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover") spiced with ethnic accents: gospel, reggae, Cajun, Peruvian and more.

On September 19, 1981, Simon and Garfunkel reunited for a free outdoor concert before a crowd of 400,000 in New York's Central Park. The brief liaison resulted in a live double album and a Top Forty hit - the duo's fifteenth, and their first since the one-off single "My Little Town" in 1975 - with their spirited rendition of the Everly Brothers' "Wake Up Little Suzie." Rumors of a more lasting collaboration were scotched when Simon erased Garfunkel's harmony vocals from Hearts and Bones (1983), releasing it as a solo album instead..
