Peter, Paul & Mary Artist Snapshot:

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.

Title Note

Peter, Paul & Mary: Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey (vocals, guitar); Mary Travers (vocals).

Includes original release liner notes by Bob Dylan.

In the early 1960s Peter, Paul and Mary sweetened folk music with their genial harmonies and crystalline performances, making folk acceptable to the unenlightened masses. It's true that their version of Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind" is infinitely more commercial than the original. However, commercializing an impassioned protest song like "Blowin' in the Wind," and therefore getting its message out to a much larger audience than Dylan himself could hope to garner in his early FREEWHEELIN' days, is actually a pretty subversive thing to do. Late 1963's IN THE WIND features two more Dylan songs, along with versions of the standards "Tell It on the Mountain" and "Freight Train" among other folkie favorites.
