Wow -- Mary Travers is the freak'in "mom" mtRNA|DNA to Gisel Bündchen, among the recent decade's mega-top-dollar-paid fashions models ever...whereas, many contemporaneous critics et al narrow thinkers, discounted Mary's "strong looks" as, at best, a cruder version of the "Julie Christie school of peroxide-locks"; whereas, in retrospect--at least for newer generations--review of the ubber-graphical stagings, w/high-key lighting, proves my salient point. Not my type, but lookers all the same!
This is wonderful. The vocal blend is so good. I love Mary's irony: "One of [our songs the Kingston Trio] promptly snitched!" But her performance proves her gratitude they popularized it, even if they did make it seem to audiences that PPM were covering a Kingston Trio song! Hahahaha
1:41 ~ that picture up on the screen in the background...of mary...holy cow that is a gorgeous picture!! lol does anyone know where i can get it??? :P
I Love You Mary Travis. We were so lucky to have you on earth.You soothed our sorrowful and lonely hearts and healed our wounds with your loving songs. Now you sing in Heaven enchanting God and the Angels
love this song it is sad but true war is nothing but a waste of human life I am not against the soldiers I just do not like war if only mankind would learn war no more
Its amazing to see the connections between Pete Seeger, Peter, Paul & Mary, Kingston Trio, Bob Dylan, Woody and Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, Mammas and the Pappas,
I am going to post this song to Face Book as am anthem for Memorial Day... not this version.. I need to find a more somber version... Maybe by Pete Seeger

Oh, Dear Mary-- voice of Silver, Conscience of the Folk movement, miss you and appreciate your songs and singing. "Shanefire6" : hate a woman who sings of Love and Peace and Justice? Who spoke of the Gov'ment's lies? Ah, well. Maybe you'll wake up.
Roger Gamball and George Groves replaced Nick Reynolds and John Stewart. Bob Shane is the Guy with the curly white hair on the far right in the white shirt with the red/orange collar (the original guitar player from The Kingston Trio). This song is one of my very favorites and will be played at my funeral. Being a Viet Nam Veteran I can't think of a more appropriate song to have at my funeral. Peter, Paul & Mary, and The Kingston Trio can never be replaced. Their music will remain for eternity.
Mary Traver's career spans most of my life. As years passed and we all grew older, we all aged but Mary's voice remained one constant amongst the change. For many year's each time I heard Mary sing tears filled my eyes. I realized that times were indeed changing. You brought me and so many others such joy. Rest in peace Mary, we still love you.
Gosh - was born and raised on PPM...40 years ....and it is not the same in this world without her. May you be resting peacefully, and singing with the angels. Mary. You are deeply missed.
MARY WE MISS YOU.

@DCV321 I believe Pete did write it, but PPM did such a good version, they helped him popularize it.
