The Sound of Silence album paid most of my wages when I worked for CBS Records around 1966, so I'm quite fond of Simon and Garfunkel.
Bridge over Troubled Water came out after I left, so I was not happy about that.

Not really, I met Brian Poole after he left the Tremoloes and was never heard of again.
On Christmas they put on Nicholas Parsons as he used to be a comedian.
I did meet Lita Roza who was lovely and Liberace, perhaps I should keep quiet about that!
I was to meet and sell a load of CBS jazz deletion albums to Scott Walker which was the highlight of my time there!
All very exciting you'll agree.

Bit eccentric from what I have read?
Do not remember much of a jazz influence in his music but never really listened to any of his solo stuff.

No not for long, I was only repping for them, but we fell out over my area for which I had doubled the takings, being changed and my wages falling to half of what they were.
I had half the shops in the City and West End of London and they took them away and sent me out to do it all over again in the sticks.
I left immediately.
