Well...what we hear on the "original recording" is not really what Simon and Garfunkel recorded. If I remember the story correctly (and I probably don't) Simon and Garfunkel recorded the lyrics (and maybe Simon's guitar) and then sort of ignored it. Some session musicians somehow got a hold of it and added the drums and the rest of the instruments to create the version we now call the original. All without Simon and Garfunkel's input. The rest is history...
