| One of the most beloved and successful folk groups of all time, Peter, Paul & Mary are well represented by this impressive four-CD/one-DVD Rhino box set. Formed in New York City's Greenwich Village during the early 1960s, the trio--consisting of Peter Yarrow, Noel "Paul" Stookey, and Mary Travers--garnered a huge following with their thoughtful, easy-going performances of socially conscious tunes by lauded songsmiths such as Woody Guthrie ("This Land Is Your Land"), Pete Seeger ("If I Had a Hammer"), and a then relatively unknown troubadour from Minnesota named Bob Dylan ("Blowin' in the Wind"). These songs and many revered PP&M originals (most notably the gentle "Autumn to May" and the whimsical children's classic "Puff the Magic Dragon") are included on this collection, along with lesser-known tunes, rare concert recordings, and solo tracks by Yarrow, Stookey, and Travers. This remarkably comprehensive set is mainly geared towards PP&M's most adoring fans, but listeners seeking a pared-down compilation can find many of these selections on 2005's THE VERY BEST OF PETER, PAUL & MARY. | |
Artist Overview
Though they were dismissed by folk purists at the time for being too pop, Peter, Paul and Mary did more than anyone else to bring folk music into the mainstream in the early 1960s. Not only did they champion traditional folk music, they were the first to popularize the work of Bob Dylan; their versions of Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind" and "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" reached the Top 10 in 1963, when Dylan was still largely unknown. The trio broke up in 1970, but after their reunion in 1978 they have periodically toured and released music into the 21st century, despite Mary Travers's battle with leukemia.
