CAFFE` LATTE` 
TOP 1200 CHOICE TRACKS


#385 ALL I KNOW Art Garfunkel
Following the end of Simon & Garfunkel, the latter half of that famous duo issued his solo debut album in 1973. 'Angel Clare' featured a big ballad in the vein of "Bridge Over Troubled Water" entitled "All I Know". Art Garfunkel was taking no chances here in song choice. Vocally, however, the performance is majestic throughout. Garfunkel is allowed to shine here, just as he had on the duo's signature song. Jimmy Webb penned "All I Know". The recording of the lush ballad found Garfunkel co-producing with Roy Halee. The single peaked at #9 Pop in America and reached #1 on the Adult Contemporary Chart.

This is a list made up of the songs I enjoy the most, ranked in order of preference: the higher we go, the more I cherish them. Some were released as singles, others as album tracks. Some are obscure; others were worldwide hits or have universal appeal. They aren't always the most famous or popular, but simply a personal choice. I have excluded songs from the last few years in order to get a better idea of a song's lasting impression. I hope you find some new tracks to love, or re-discover some past favourites.
2 new songs are added each day (every 12 hours)  with a mid-week bonus every Wednesday.
