I always liked that song, though it's very much a product of the mid '60s R&B style. I hadn't seen him before but I thought he had good stage presence. The audience members they cut away to didn't seem very impressed with him though.

The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind…

While Peter, Paul, and Mary were way before my time for some reason a relative of mine wanted to take me to Wolf Trap when I was visiting Virginia. PP&M were in town so that is what we saw. The crowd was all ages as you might expect as it was outside on the grass. I have to say that I enjoyed myself and the Puff The Magic Dragon singalong with the audience was great. They had a broad appeal across generations.

PP&M did this John Denver song proper. A good song well sung (1969):



"And Peter, Paul & Mary were good: they weren't corny, they were good."
-David Crosby, 2013.

Which brings to mind the young parish priest that was so nervous after saying his first Sunday Mass that during the announcements from the pulpit at the conclusion he said: "Next Saturday at 7:00 pm there will be a Peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's."

First couple of times I heard Bob Uecker (Carson show?), I couldn't believe how funny this crappy baseball player was.

Congrats, Chapman-is-Gone, you are pretty much one of us now, witnessed by the fact that you made a post here while completely forgetting to call us losers. It might be time to give you our secret initiation rites, if only concordtom can remember where he put the paddles after we initiated SBGold.

And helltopay1 is looking down at us, smiling. (I got invited to a "remembrance lunch" for him last Saturday, but instead I went to the Cal Basketball game. He approved of that, too, I'm pretty sure.)

I remember him being asked how to catch a knuckleball. "Wait until it stops rolling and pick it up."

"The biggest thrill a ballplayer can have is when your son takes after you. That happened when my Bobby was in his championship Little League game. He really showed me something. Struck out three times. Made an error that lost the game. Parents were throwing things at our car and swearing at us as we drove off. Gosh, I was proud."

"When I came up to bat with three men on and two outs in the ninth, I looked in the other team's dugout and they were already in street clothes."

-Bob Uecker
