Simon and Garfunkel's Greatest Hits is the first compilation album from Simon & Garfunkel, which was released on June 14, 1972, two years after Simon & Garfunkel had parted ways. The album was a mix of original studio recordings and four previously unreleased live recordings.
The album's minimalist packaging does not specifically date the latter; however, the live versions of For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her and Kathy's Song included on Greatest Hits were also included on the 2008 album Live 1969.
The liner notes to Live 1969 state that these two songs were both recorded at a November 1969 concert in St. Louis, Missouri. According to the liner notes from Collected Works, however, the version of Kathy's Song was taken from a 1968 concert in Vermont.
In a 1975 BBC Radio 1 interview, Roy Halee identified this version of The 59th Street Bridge Song as being from Simon & Garfunkel's 1970 performance at Carnegie Hall, "the last concert they did together" (prior to their disbanding later in 1970). A live version of Homeward Bound was also included on the album.
