Not a fan, really, but I did love the song "Marvelous Toy". That one was kinda fun.

And, love 'em or hate 'em, there is no denying their influence. Hell, their cover of "Blowin' In the Wind" did bring one Mr. Zimmerman to the attention of the public at-large.

RIP

I can take or leave nearly all their songs but the few times I had brief interactions with Yarrow and Stookey they were extremely gracious and warm people. Never met Travers.

I've been to Yarrow's house and sung along while he played songs.

Ol Blanket!

How has everyone on the board met Peter, Paul or Mary?

Also, excellent thread title.

Stookey owned media outlets in Maine for decades. Eventually every DJ or local TV dude encountered him if but momentarily.
