Sounds of Silence is Simon & Garfunkel's second album. The title track is legendary - when the original, acoustic version of the tune was given a rock feel by adding an electric backing track, folk-rock was invented, and the duo were catapulted to superstardom. It is here that Simon starts to realize his full potential as a brilliant songwriter, and Garfunkel as a breath-taking singer. This release is propelled by the two great and memorable songs. The lyrics of the title tune are equal to any that were being produced at the time and one of those rare songs that defines a period of time and is instantly recognizable by its first few notes. "I Am A Rock," a sensitive and thoughtful song of loneliness, is poetry set to music and was the second single released from the album, reaching No. 3 on Billboard.
