Bruce Woodley

During 1965, while in London, Woodley met [[Paul Simon]], following the poor performance of ''[[Wednesday Morning 3 A.M.]]'' and just prior to the success of [[Simon and Garfunkel]].<ref name="Miles" /> All of this also happened before the success of Simon's "The Sounds of Silence." Simon and Woodley co-wrote the million-selling "[[Red Rubber Ball]]"<ref name="APRA RedRubber">{{cite web|publisher=Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA)|title="Red Rubber Ball" at APRA search engine|url=http://www.apra-amcos.com.au/worksearch.axd?q=Red%20Rubber%20Ball|access-date=1 November 2009}}</ref>—later a Top Five hit for US group [[The Cyrkle]].<ref name="Miles" /> This was the Simon and Woodley collaboration. The Seekers later recorded these three songs, and "Cloudy" became an album track on Simon and Garfunkel's hit 1966 album ''[[Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme]]''—the only Simon and Woodley song to appear on both groups' album.<ref name="Miles" /> However, Woodley's relationship with Simon had deteriorated and Woodley later struggled to get his share of the [[royalties]]—his songwriting credit on "Cloudy" was omitted from the release of ''Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme''.<ref name="Miles" /> Woodley and Simon stopped working together due to the mentioned royalty problems and creative differences, and the collaborations ended after that.
