The Boxer Fingerstyle in the Store.

myguitarshow — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 16:39:17 +0000

The Boxer is one of the most popular ballads of Simon & Garfunkel, with a phenomenal acoustic guitar and the contribution of the legendary drummer and session musician Hal Blaine, who created a new drum sound specifically for the song. It is included in their last album, Bridge Over Troubled Water, released in 1969. It entered on number seven on American music chart Billboard Hot 100. The text, written by Paul Simon, is autobiographical and is a response to the attacks received by music critics, according to which he and Art Garfunkel were going through a creative crisis. Behind the metaphor of the boxer who has to work to give and get hits, but must also know how to rise after every fall, there is a reflection on the importance of knowing how to stay afloat in life.
