The first track, 21st Century Schizoid Man (which surely influenced Black Sabbath) was sampled by Kanye West in the track Power.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/nowPlaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nowPlaying</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/KingCrimson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KingCrimson</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RobertFripp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RobertFripp</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/progRock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>progRock</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vinyl</span></a></p>

It was the duo's breakthrough album in the UK, and contains the well known numbers America and Mrs Robinson, and the fascinating "Voices of Old People", recordings by Garfunkel of residents of old people's homes.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/nowPlaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nowPlaying</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/SimonAndGarfunkel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SimonAndGarfunkel</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vinyl</span></a></p>

By 1968 they were in London with a new lineup (Rory - guitar and vocals, Richard McCracken - bass and John Wilson - drums). This album was released in 1969, shortly after Rory's 21st birthday, and completes my collection of his official albums released in his lifetime.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/nowPlaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nowPlaying</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Taste" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Taste</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RoryGallagher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RoryGallagher</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vinyl</span></a></p>

Their 11th studio album, and first without founding member, bassist Martin Turner, it has a more funky feel than the early records.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/nowPlaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nowPlaying</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/WishboneAsh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WishboneAsh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/70sMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>70sMusic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vinyl</span></a></p>
