Peter, Paul and Mary
Peter, Paul and Mary (Limited Edition Hybrid SACD version)
Review by Gary Hill
I can’t remember a time when the music of Peter Paul and Mary was not a part of the world. Of course, that’s because this, their debut album, was released before I was born. I knew their songs before I knew who they were. Then, as time went by, I sort of forgot about them. It’s not that I didn’t remember them. It’s just that I didn’t listen to their music or hear it on the radio anymore. I just didn’t think about them. Well, this new audiophile release of their first album got me thinking about and listening to them again. I have to say that I’m glad. The songs sound better than ever here. If you’ve ever liked this group, or just like folk music in general, pick this up. You won’t be disappointed.
