Art Garfunkel - All I Know, Live SNL 1978

Hear this short but brilliant rendition of Jimmy Webb's song by Artie during his only hosting gig in Saturday Night Live (1978).

[@billyhall53]

One of the most beautiful songs sung by the finest voice I've ever heard. I'm 71 and Art is the best.

[@lizarosa156]

1978 ... my senior year of high school. 2024 ... still playing this song.

I was the class of 76 ..

[@patricialescano8323]

This is such a beautiful song even after all of these years! He's the perfect singer for it too.

[@jazzcode3711]

The addition of the cellist accompaniment is what made this particular rendition so memorable to me. Can't hear Art's tune without thinking of this minimalist performance.

[@doodlebug36]

Jimmy Webb and Art Garfunkel = sublime.

[@patriciadavies5389]

I’ve adored this man since forever and his voice brings back so memories of my life. Sometimes it just breaks my heart, sometimes it brings me joy. What a legacy.

[@1jimifox]

I feel exactly the same Patricia...

[@maureenobrien9815]

@@1jimifox. ...me too..

[@kalmia01]

Feel the same, though only recently I rediscovered him and Paul. I listened to them as teen through my dad's music.. I truly believe it's impossibile not love them together and Artie's voice and unique, lovely personality

[@alanbooth1281]

One of the greatest Jimmy Webb songs. By the definitive artist.

[@Bluetreez]

This has stayed with me since seeing it live, so happy to find it here ❤

[@sandilobianco6734]

Thanks for this song. I miss the 70’s.

[@ellepennell3706]

Oh Artie. What a beautiful voice. Coming out of a beautiful man. You will always be my best. Old or young you are always my best.

[@litaanderson1589]

I agree with you what a beautiful angelic voice can’t get enough of his singing the All I Know song has a beautiful meaningful lyrics and Artie sang it so beautiful. I loved the harmonies it is different from the other videos but I loved them all. Thanks for uploading this segment.😢👍 Loved the violin.

[@tomcampbell9645]

Amen !!

[@JoanVioletStretch]

I love Art's solo album Breakaway and I still have my original vinyl copy. Love this Jimmy Webb song sung by Art its so beautiful and Art's voice and that cello is something else. 💗🎶🎵🎶

[@StevenCarinci]

Breakaway is one for the ages. Masterpiece extraordinare.

[@Tanmag11]

Flawless performance

[@dorismoses6845]

Art Garfunkel love his voice so much, beautiful song!

[@codicolog01v]

pietch-perfect, driving and beautifully refined. Perfect instrumentalization. One of my favorites and from the days when tv didn't handle live musical performances all that well.

[@pauldeanify]

Beyond words !!

[@litaanderson1589]

This episode is truly a sublime his perfect angelic voice makes me 😢 Thank you Mr. Garfunkel for your unending beautiful voice up to now(2021) I adored you and Mr. Simon duo over the years. I had watched snl specially the 1978 episodes with those good actors, what a very good show. Anyway thank you for posting.👍👍👍loved the added violin it complemented Art’s angelic voice. Thank you!!

[@QuesQueriosityQuabinet]

Incredible performance.

[@trevorflarty1811]

I actually liked, Artie's, version of:"I only have eyes for you". Very dreamy!

[@gerrydooley951]

Yep, I thought it was great as was the whole album.

[@joealexander3268]

I saw this when it aired when I was a college sophomore. As I watched I was in awe of the beauty of Art Garfunkel's rendition of Jimmy Webb's lovely song. Thanks so much for posting this. I have searched for it many times until I found it today. It is a startlingly wonderful and comforting memory.

[@lisabunnie22960]

I didn't want to cry today..but.. I love you.

[@thegoose858]

Personally, I prefer this live version to the studio. The latter is fine, but still I thought the arrangement and Art's singing were both a little more, um, "overwrought" maybe is the word, than needed. Here Art's vocals are perfect, and the relatively sparse arrangement highlights the beauty of the voice, melody and lyrics. Wonderful!

[@edwardcaulfield67]

from one of the classic albums of all time

[@joelcampbell1491]

Love this Been a fan since childhood ❤

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

Birds, perched on a elm tree branch, are listening intently ...and they are impressed with Art 🐤🐥🐦

[@bryanbordelon9784]

Incredible song, love the violin and Jimmy Webb's lyrics. This version is better than the studio album cut.

[@johnmorris7262]

Superb!! 🎼

[@Bonbontango]

love this lovely lilycs

[@linjicakonikon7666]

Art Garfunkel. The Singer.

[@Vince7503]

Will there ever be song writers like this again? Will anyone bring such beautiful words to life like Paul and Art?

[@tomcampbell9645]

The only duo I can think of that could match their virtuosity were the Everly brothers.

[@tiagocamargo6782]

Choro ouvindo as canções de Simon & Garfunkel..... Lindo demais!

男性でエンジェルヴォイスとは唯一無二の存在です

[@hobbygamer6220]

[@allenoshana7461]

This song I dedicate to the one woman who broke my heart…….she died 24 years ago 😢.

[@StevenCarinci]

Wow 😂!

[@Steven-jq2dr]

Five For Fighting also did a great version for the Disney movie Chicken Little.

[@JohnStopman]

The gain settings are wrong: the sound is a bit distorted... :-/
