Briefly: Simon and Garfunkel, Wu-Tang Clan, George Huff

Simon & Garfunkel's 2003-04 reunion tour has spawned a deluxe, double-CD/DVD package dubbed "Old Friends: Live On Stage," due on Nov. 30. Warner Bros. will also issue the two-CD set and DVD separately.

Material for the collections was culled from the duo's Dec. 3-8, 2003 performances at New Jersey's Continental Airlines Arena and New York's Madison Square Garden.

Besides live performances of well-known songs, the CD features the bonus track "Citizen of the Planet," originally written by Paul Simon in the early '80s to be a part of the duo's repertoire, but never recorded until Art Garfunkel added vocals for this release.

The CD features the standards "Silent Night," "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," "Go, Tell It on the Mountain," and a medley of "Angels We Have Heard on High" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing."
