I saw Peter and Richie do this very version of this song on a television show several years ago...I don't remember what it was, but I've been searching for the song ever since. ty for posting it.
Peter Yarrow is one of theonly musicians who has put his money where his mouth is. Aside from being a great writer/musician he is a great humanitarian.
When referring to the song I think it is "Mandella" but for this video I am talking about the "Mandala"... life. The archetypal circle with no begining and no end.
The correct word is Mandala, the wheel of life. It is not about Nelson Mandella. Peter Yarrow wrote this song in the 1960s before Nelson Mandella became known.
This is actually Peter Yarrow and Richie Havens performing at one of the PP&M and Friends concerts....ya know, up in that loft. It was a haunting and hypnotic performance.
great video, great song..
Do you know where i can find THIS recording?
Please let me know
Thanks

How many remember the little kid at 4:22? Not something I thought I ever wanted to see.
Now we are seeing it again.

I hope your husband comes back safe in mind and body and spirit.
My nephew was there too. It changed him.

Thank you. I was trying to find a away to say that war is horrible. Not just this current war but all wars... forever.
We must choose Peace.

Is it Mandala or Mandella? Because I've seen the lyrics both ways.
