By the way, Wikipedia spells his name Bobb Goldsteinn, two B’s two n’s. (Goldstein being one of the writers of the song). And has this strange paragraph about him:

Quote
In the fall of 1968, Goldsteinn returned to songwriting and crafted the lyrics for "Canterbury Road" to a melody by Curt Boettcher and friends. The song was written for pop singer Lou Christie and while it was not formally released, Roy Hallee made a copy of the mix and took it to Paul Simon; a few months later, "Bridge over Troubled Water" appeared. All master tape copies of "Canterbury Road" disappeared until 1990–1991, when an in-flight audiotape was found in a Dutch flea market. The song was finally released on a Lou Christie import album called Glory River in 1992.

This doesn’t even have a ‘citation needed’. The next paragraph scoots off into talking about Andy Warhol. Anyone ever heard of ‘Bridge’ being a derivation of another song? (Actually, there is an indirect allegation of some song stealing here.)
