Chod, the drum machine hadn't been invented when this was recorded. This song took over 100 hours to record in multiple locations, including NYC, Nashville, and St. Paul's Chapel at Columbia University. "The legendary session drummer Hal Blaine created the huge drum sound with the help of producer Roy Halee, who found a spot for the drums in front of an elevator in the Columbia offices. As recounted in the 2011 Making of Bridge Over Troubled Water documentary, Blaine would pound the drums at the end of the "Lie la lie" vocals that were playing in his headphones, and at one point, an elderly security guard got a big surprise when he came out of the elevator and was startled by Blaine's thunderous drums."

"I have squandered my resistance for a pocket full of mumbles, such are promises". That line slays me every time. The opening segment of the first episode of Saturday Night Live after 9/11 Paul Simon ( a NYC resident) sang this song while surrounded by NYPD & Fire Fighters. When he sang the lines "but the fighter still remains" is still one of the most emotional moments of my life.

That line in the last verse..."in the clearing stands a boxer...I am leaving, but the fighter still remains" hits home so hard. It conveys that feeling of being in that untenable situation, that you can't bear, but you do... You suffer through. Your still remain because, in that instance, you have to. It's so powerful to me. Paul Simon was a masterful lyricist.

The song has only one drumbeat, and played during the 'lie-la-lie' refrain. The session drummer Hal Blaine created the heavily reverberated drum sound with the help of producer Roy Halee, who found a spot for the drums in front of an elevator in the Columbia offices. The recording of the drum was recorded as the song was being played live by the musicians. Blaine would pound the drums at the end of the "Lie la lie" vocals that were playing in his headphones, and at one point, an elderly security guard got a big surprise when he came out of the elevator and was startled by Blaine's thunderous drums. Hal Blaine recounted the recording process, "There we were with all these mic cables, my drums, and a set of headphones," says Blaine. "When the chorus came around - the 'lie-la-lie' bit - Roy had me come down on my snare drum as hard as I could. In that hallway, right next to this open elevator shaft, it sounded like a cannon shot! Which was just the kind of sound we were after."

Drum machine?????? That's the late great Hal Blaine, one of the brilliant, ubiquitous at the time, L.A. session musicians collectively known as 'The Wrecking Crew'. That unique, heavily reverberated snare sound was famously recorded in an elevator. The deep sound that came in right at the end is orchestral brass, I'm guessing tuba.

I grew up with Simon and Garfunkel and when I heard this I immediately thought the sound of that drum to be the 'punch' being thrown at the man by life as he struggled. The end of the song, speaking of the boxer being struck down and getting up was a note to the man to do the same. Simon and Garfunkel were fabulous storytellers. They were geniuses in using their music to help in the protests at that time. I'm forever a fan.

There's so much "interpretation" involved that the song itself dies under the "microscope". I was 23 yrs old at the time. The message was completely different from what the "modern" (80s, 90s 2010,etc) people seem to be able to interpret. They're not able (or probably even totally incapable) of capturing the essence or true intent of Messrs Simon and Garfunkle's lyrics. In short, you really had to "be there" to know what they meant at the time. --- Another example of "time" vs "intent."

Emmylou Harris did a beautiful bluegrass style version of this that is well worth a listen.

There are no machines in this song. This is way before there were drum machines and Auto-Tune. You really had to play an instrument. Imagine that

No electronic effects or drum machine in 1969. The crash sound after "Lie Lie Lie" is a drum placed in front of a elevator shaft and recorded.

There is bass harmonica in this song. Is that what you asked about? Quincy Jones created perhaps the most famous bass harmonica lick in the opening notes of the Sanford & Son TV show theme song.

“Seeking a connection with the human race,” Continue striving despite being knocked down. Isolated loneliness, selling out, living with lies from within and without
