Peter. Paul And Mary (3 Bonus Tracks)

Description

The most popular acoustic folk music group of the 1960s, Peter, Paul and Mary mixed great songs with political and social activism. They brought folk music to a new prominence in the post-McCarthy era, putting lyrics about politics and morality on the radio amid the syrupy boy-girl love tunes that dominated the airwaves. Presented here in its entirety is the trios first album, originally issued in 1962, the splendid self-titled Peter, Paul and Mary. It features some of their fine own compositions like Early in the Morning or Cruel War, and great renditions of Hedy Wests 500 Miles, and Pete Seegers song, If I Had a Hammer.
