Rookie
So I've been going through all my music, and "If You'll Be My Bodyguard" by Paul Simon just came on, and it got me thinking.

Art Garfunkel is a blond afro-sporting dick. Paul Simon is better off without him, and is a musical genius. I will not have a bad word said about the man.

Thoughts?

And what about acts you think were better off separated?
 
I honestly like Paul McCartney better without the Beatles. Most of the Beatles songs I like are the McCartney songs.
 
Simon did all the writing so of course he was better. Graceland is also an amazing album.

I think the oposite of used. McCartny couldn't hold a handle to Lennnon. None of his solo albums can measure up to Plastic Ono Band or All Things Must Pass.
 
ZZK, one word: Wings.

And Mikey, I am the jealous. Yes, I'm only 19, but I have taste. At my work at the moment, we've got the DVD of the Concert in Central Park, from back in '81.

Oh, man.
 
Wings released a couple good albums, but I still don't think any of them held a candle to the two I mentioned.

I do think Paul Simon is way better than Garfunkle, but I think he was better when they're together.
 
Interestingly both Simon, Garfunkle and I belong to the same fraternity. Yeah.

But I thing Paul was the superior musician. And Wings was a great band,
 
Simon and Garfunkel > Simon

As for other bands, I think The Smiths are so much better than Morrissey by himself. I usually think the band is better than the solo career, but look at people like eric clapton and phil collins.
 
I think Morrissey is just as good as the Smiths.
As for other bands/groups, Michael Jackson was better solo. Diana Ross was better solo.
I can't think of others...
 
I can't agree Tankie. While Paul is obviously the better... everything, Art has the hair of the gods.

Damn it, Kaniff, you know as well as I do, it didn't work for Vanilla Ice, just like it didn't work for Garfunkel.
