From journalist and Grammy(R)-nominated music producer Leo Sacks,
and New York Times chief popular music critic Jon Pareles, Keeping
Time places Hunstein's photos in the context of musical and social
change, adding an untold chapter to the cultural history Don
Hunstein's images of music's most influential artists are
unforgettable. As Columbia Records' staff photographer for more
than four decades, Hunstein earned the trust and confidence of the
most celebrated singers, songwriters, composers, and musicians of
our time, including Bob Dylan, Miles Davis, Johnny Cash, Simon
& Garfunkel, Aretha Franklin, Leonard Bernstein, Dave Brubeck,
Tony Bennett, and Thelonious Monk, to name a few. Hunstein
photographed these greats with noticeable informality,
demonstrating a perpetual ease with his subjects. With his relaxed
approach, he was able to glean private moments from public lives
filled with fascinating, telling, and intimate details. Logging his
daily assignments, Hunstein created an archive of profound images
that parallel the soundtracks to our lives. To this day, his work
exists as a unique record chronicling the creative efforts and
energies of the world's greatest musicians. Edited by journalist
and Grammy(R)-nominated music producer Leo Sacks and with text by
New York Times chief popular music critic Jon Pareles, Keeping Time
places Hunstein's photos in the context of musical and social
change, adding an untold chapter to the cultural history of the
second half of the twentieth century.
It's a scandal that Sony Music's American catalog only offers a
late '80s vintage compilation of Art Garfunkel's music, limited to
12 songs and indifferently mastered even by the standards of the
time; meanwhile, Sony's British catalog has released this 20-song
collection which, though it's not perfect, does offer upgraded
sound along with a solid cross-section of Garfunkel's best work
across 25 years of solo music-making. There are holes, to be sure,
and not every track off of the U.S. best-of is represented -- where
are "All I Know" and "Two Sleepy People," to name but two? -- but
at least it's a step in the right direction for an artist who is
deserving of the respect implicit in an ambitious release of this
kind. Though the absent songs are, indeed, very much missed, the
clean, bright mastering of "I Believe," "Disney Girls," "She Moved
Through the Fair," "Watermark," "Break Away," "Miss You Nights,"
and "Crying in the Rain" makes this worth picking up, at least
until Sony Music gets around to upgrading its American catalog. The
clarity and crispness, and the vivid textures bring out a greater,
silky purity in Garfunkel's voice than has ever before been evident
on CD, and a presence to the accompaniment that leaves one more
impressed than ever with these tracks as an art form in themselves,
very much like Simon & Garfunkel's post-1965 productions. There
is no annotation to speak of, but the quality of the audio
justifies this disc -- if someone were to come up with a double-CD
set that combined the non-overlapping tracks from this, Up 'Til
Now, and the U.S. best-of in this quality, that would be the only
Garfunkel package anyone needed. ~ Bruce Eder
