Peter, Paul & Mary 1962 Warner Bros. Records, Inc. Originally Released CD Edition Released January 1988 AMG EXPERT RE VIEW: The debut album by Peter, Paul & Mary is still one of the b est albums to come out of the 1960s folk music revival, a beautif ully harmonized collection of the best songs that the group knew, stirring in its sensibilities and its haunting melodies, crossin g between folk, children's songs, and even gospel ("If I Had My W ay"), and light-hearted just where it needed to be, with the song "Lemon Tree," which became their first hit single, and earnest w here it had to be, particularly on "If I Had a Hammer." Ironicall y, the trio's version of the latter song, which Pete Seeger and L ee Hayes had written in the early days of the Weavers' history, h elped push popular folk music in a more political direction at th e time, but it was another song in their repertory, Seeger's "Whe re Have All the Flowers Gone," that also helped indirectly jump s tart that movement. The group had performed it in Boston at a con cert attended by the Kingston Trio, who immediately returned to N ew York and cut their own version, which charted as a single earl y in Other highlights include "It's Raining" and "500 Miles ." Peter, Paul & Mary, which hit the top spot on the album charts as part of a 185-week run, is the purest of the trio's albums, l aced with innocent good spirits and an optimism that remains infe ctious even 40 years later. Along with the rest of the trio's ear ly catalog, the album was remixed for CD from its original three- track master tape by Peter Yarrow in 1989, which resulted in some of the best sound on any Warner Bros. CDs of material dating fro m the early '60s. -- Bruce Eder Amazon.com essential recording The legendary trio's eponymous debut produced two classics --"Lemon Tree" and Pete Seeger's "If I Had a Hammer." Because the y were always hipper and more political than the Kingston Trio, P eter, Paul & Mary were soon frequently credited as the group that transformed American folk music into '60s pop. It would be anoth er six months before they really exploded with "Puff the Magic Dr agon," and then another six before they brought Bob Dylan into th e mainstream via their hit covers of "Blowin' in the Wind" and "D on't Think Twice." Which is why 1970's 10 Years Together: The Bes t of Peter, Paul and Mary remains the essential buy; nevertheless , the debut features their gorgeous covers of "Cruel War" and "Wh ere Have All the Flowers Gone," making this disc mandatory for fo lk fans. --Bill Holdship Amazon.com Customer Review Pure Pop for Folkies, July 10, 2000 Reviewer: Mike Halloran (San Jose, C A United States) The Weavers were a folk group trying to make i t as pop singers - as were the Kingston Trio, The New Christy Min strels, Joan Baez and countless imitators. It took a manufactured pop group, however, to truly bring folk to the masses. Nevermind that Peter, Paul and Mary sang almost no folk songs - the closes t thing that you will find to a folk song on this album are heavi ly re-worked versions of "This Train" and "It's Raining". No matt er: They had a fresh look and the right sound. This album was a c lassic from its first release. "500 Miles" alone would qualify it as such in my book. "This Train", "The Cruel War", "If I Had a H ammer" and "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" (three of these fiv e were Weavers' songs) solidify this as a (the?) must-have pre-Be atles album. It was not the biggest seller of (but who cares about "The Singing Nun"?). It launched thousands of similar grou ps and its influence was huge. Not all is gold, however: Dave van Ronk's "Bamboo" was sappy then and has not improved. The perform ance of "It's Raining" sounds as embarrassing now as it was earne st and cute then (a much better version is found on the live "In Concert"). If you gotta have just one PP&M album, I would recomme nd "Album 1700" but their first one is a classic - it will be jus t as good 40 or 400 years from now. Highly recommended!
