I attended a Peter, Paul and Mary concert in Sydney, Australia in 1964. I waited around afterwards in case I could get a glimpse of my favourite folk group. Peter came out and was mingling with fans so I was able to get his autograph, but because fans were surrounding him, they didn’t notice Mary sneak out and quickly move toward a waiting taxi. I rushed over to her and asked for her autograph. She declined saying she had a bad cold and just wanted to get back to her hotel. I was devastated and it must have shown on my face because she hesitated and then bent down and kissed me on my left cheek. I was gobsmacked . . . Mary Travers kissed my cheek . . . I was on cloud nine. Here I was, an impressionable 13 year old getting something better than an autograph . . . a kiss from Mary Travers. I’m decades older than I was then, but I’ve never forgotten that treasured experience. I also never imagined then, that I’d hear my grandchildren singing Peter, Paul and Mary songs . . . another wonderful experience.
She was trying to give you her cold for bothering her.😂
Beautiful memories..!!!!
If that concert was at the Sydney stadium (the old boxing stadium) then I was also there.
Brilliant loz
@@allanbriggs9007 . . . Yes, The Stadium at Rushcutters Bay.
RIP Mary Allin Travers (November 9, 1936 - September 16, 2009)(aged 72) you will truly be missed.
agree 100%
My Dad always sang Puff the Magic Dragon to rock the grandkids to sleep… thanks the memory
Remember when Puff was on the radio
And contrary to popular belief, that song has nothing to do with drugs.
@@alextepe4309 But in the 60s, people thought every song must be about drugs 😃
On the 'In Concert' album one of the guys (I think is was Paul but I'm not sure) makes a wonderful introduction to 'Puff'.
@@alextepe4309 in the 60s there was an animated series of ' puff the magic dragon ' on british tv. I used to sing along to ' leaving on a jet plane's everytime it was played on the radio. I,m not a 100% sure, but I think they appeared on a show called ' top of the pops', a music chart show on british tv.
Thank you Lamont... She did have a beautiful voice... Memories of my childhood. I remember when we went on School trips we sang "Where have all the Flowers gone".
......and she had a powerful voice
Lamont. Pervert Paul & Mary. Nice. You disrespectful POS.
Hard to believe she's been gone that long. Typical that she would want such a simple stone, when she was such an exceptional person, artist and exemplary soul. RIP Mary
15 years ago already.
Her voice was smooth and beautiful. She was a treasure for sure. Thank you Lamont! ☮️
Mary was a very beautiful woman. Peter, Paul, and Mary made beautiful music!
I am a beautiful lesbian
@@ijustdidahugeshit ok so what does that have to do with this?
@@blakeh8582 My name is Mary
Yes I'm old and loved Peter Paul and Mary, Thanks so much Lamont
RIP Mary - Fly high! You are SO loved🕊
I got to see them in concert. My seat was in the gold row so I was quite close. When they all started singing Puff the magic dragon, tears were flowing down my face. Such a kind soul.
I used to LOVE that song. I think I was around kindergarten or early grade school age. It really mesmerized me.
Mary Travers ... what a dish, what a voice. RIP and thank you for making my youth memorable.
"What a DISH". . . spoken like a real old-timer. Haven't heard that saying in a LONG TIME, LOL.
I used to have their albums.
Rest in peace Mary.
I have left a gift on your front door
I will never forget you, Mary and your beautiful voice. I learned how to play the guitar on your (PPM) songs in the 70’s. Your legend will always live on.🥰
Same here
Me too.
Puff the magic dragon still brings tears to my eyes. Too this day , I'm 66 at this posting. Do love the song!!!
I listened to it at a friends house and always felt sad and I was 5 years old.
@@veronikalake6934 don't we wish we could go back to those days of play
Puff the magic 🐲 🐉 dragon was about smoking weed
@@veronikalake6934 I first heard it in class at Homer Davis school Tucson. AZ.
Now in TX
I loved listening to her sing. Was saddened when she passed. Great job as always!
My aunt was personal friends with their bassist and my family got to know them well over the years. I have a picture of them all holding me in 1988. She was such a love.
bill kniss ?
@@MikeMercury Aunt Peg called him Dick
I wish I could attach a picture. I have a great one of all of us in 88’

RIP Mary, beautiful singer, thank you Lamont. Xxx
Peter , Paul & Mary were so unique . They stood out from the rest of many entertainers of their time. Loved their songs ! And glad I was a product of the 60s.. Another good one Lamont. 🙏
I was born in the 1950s I sure do remember Peter ,Paul and Mary.
A stunning woman with a timeless stunning voice.
Lemon tree was always my favorite of Peter, Paul, and Mary. I’m sure that 100
Years from now, their music will still be considered timeless.
We were kids in NY in the 60s and our friends mom was personal friends with Mary. We always thought that was groovy.
Love the voice, sound of an angel.
I was one of her mother's nurses. Mary was very attentive to her.
O Lord I agree with you
Wtf then how old r you
I had the honor of sharing the stage with Mary when we shared an honorary chairmanship of the Christmas Seals campaign in Connecticut, 1982. She was warm, and humble and an absolute joy to work with, and she gave me a memory still vivid in my mind more than 40 years later.
Thanks, Lamont for this one. Listened to them all my life. RIP
I wouldn't call them a "band", they were a group.
It's so hard to see all of these National Treasures, these Icons, dying. Such a shame. What a great loss.
Lamont, you’ve truly carved out an interesting life for yourself. Traveling nonstop, seeing the country, discovering your soul. A beautiful thing! Excellent footage & commentary. A great example of a truly entertaining & enlightening TH-cam channel.👍 Have yourself a little break this Winter. It’s cool brother🤘
He sure has!!!
thanks for the memories my man lamont
A dream job once you put in those first few yrs faithfully💎
My parents went to one of their concerts and they bought an album and has all their autographs. Great music!!
Rest in peace Mary. We loved the trio Peter, Paul and Mary. We have their albums.
When you said "Pervert, Paul and Mary" I literally laughed out loud 🤣
Girl the same!!!! LMAO!!!!
Same here 😊
If the shoe fits... 'Nuff said.
Me too😂
My eyes bugged out and I snickered 👀
Mary's voice was so powerful that she dominated the trio and it was her voice that actually created the special sound that was their very own.
My 28 year old son loves the song "Leaving On a Jet Plane" and I loved the song as a child too. In eternal memory and gratitude for the beautiful music from Germany.❤RIP 💐
I saw them in concert in the 60's. They are still my favorite folk group. Thank you, Lamont.
I finally caught up on alllllll your video’s on Lamont at large and this channel😁
All i can say is that i enjoy all of them!They are very interesting,thanks for all you do Lamont!Greetz from The Netherlands👋
Hello. From the state of Indiana!!!! I myself Love Lamonts video!!!!!!
Loved Peter, Paul and Mary. Very simple but beautiful headstone. RIP Mary Travers. Thank You Lamony
My Mom would play their records on the old turntable cabinet record player all through my childhood.
So not my generation but still remember the music!
RIP Mary.
Your voice is beautiful.
Thanks Lamont!
Stay safe & warm out there!
💖
🤘
Ahh,Blackie and Co........Tormentor,fave song.....Very cool....Had my own band back then,but that`s a story for another time and place....
Cool thumb nail! Just heard WASP 40 year reunion but over seas. That came from Eddie Trunk though.
@@stephenmcgraw8871 🤘Horns Up🤘 my friend!
New W.A.S.P. tour next year (all overseas) ALL OLD SCHOOL STUFF!😍🤩🤘😍🤩
💖
🤘
@@waspbitch6014 Who does Lawless have backing him up?...I know Chris Holmes hates him(so he says)Great news though that he`s touring.....I always got a kick out of him--Blackie`s such a smart guy,knows what he wants and how he wants to do it.....
@@stephenmcgraw8871 Sorry so long to answer!
First & for most.
B.L./Blackie Lawless/Steven Duren/ at the helm of course as ALWAYS with lead vocals & backing guitar.🤩🤘
Mike Duda on bass/ backing vocals (been with them since KFD or even before-can't remember)
Dough Blaire on lead guitar/vocals & he shreds! Makes his guitars & plays one with a saw blade embedded in it! Very cool. Hails from my area of New England! Has been with them a long time too. Not as long as Mike though.
&
Finally we have the drummer-Aquiles Priester-who filled in on drums for the RE-IDOILIZED tour & was amazing! Hard to keep up with the late great Frankie Banali/Quiet Riot's drummer (did the drums on Crimson Idol-miss you dude🤘)& he did great!. The dude that was supposed to play quit the day before the tour starts.
But you know B.L.
He's a tough man to work with.
And goes through band members like toilet paper.😂
Whatever.🙄
And if Mr. Holmes thought B.L. was SO awful & abusive & took all his money....WHY did he quit the band & then come BACK to do KFD??? Is he a glutton for punishment?🤔?
Dude fool me once shame on YOU!
Fool my ass twice?
Blame is on ME!
All his band (Chris Holmes- he's in France last I knew with his own gig- new book too) mostly do anyway is W.A.S.P. cover tunes!😠 including "Mean Man" that B.L. wrote in his honor!🤬
Hope this catches you up.
Can you tell I'm a big fan?🤣😂🤣😂🤘
Loved, loved, loved this one🎤🥰🤗🤗 Her headstone, so thin, reminds me of the very old New England ones, how curious. And I didn’t know that about yucky Yarrow.
Almost looked like limestone.
Did you know I'm leaving on a jet plane was written by John Denver , Peter , Paul and Mary sang that song . Thank you Lamont for sharing this video and I learning something new everyday
Yes, I knew that
It was always said it was Mary's song, and at the end of her funeral that was the song that was played with everyone singing along.....
I believe "To Baby" was too. However, I can't think of that song without hearing Mary sing it. I think everyone can relate to it and think of my oldest Granddaughter as a toddler when I hear it.
Did John Denver die in a plane crash or was it that golfer, Payne?
@@robertdry5256 You didn't ask me specifically, but yes. He died when his experimental aircraft ran out of fuel over the Pacific Ocean off the CA coast. They suspect he didn't know how to switch tanks to access the full one after the other went empty.
The song was actually by John Denver, Peter, Paul and Mary recorded it and it was later recorded also by John Denver.
That is true. The song was originally called, Babe I Hate To Go. Until it was brought to John's attention that Leaving on a Jet Plane, was a better name for the song.
My chin quivered just a little watching this video. I am a big fan of Peter Paul and Mary - especially Mary. Her voice defined the group. Thank you for the video.
Thanks Lamont. I love thier music but I'm older. We all make mistakes. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. I can't walk on water either. Safe travels.
Pervert paul? That was low.very low.
Thanks for the post! I got to go backstage to speak with PP&M twice during the early 60’s, & I still have their autographed albums & performance booklet. They used to draw caricatures of themselves. Mary’s has her hair coming down & forward, over one shoulder. She seemed very nice. RIP!
Love you, Lamont, “Pervert, Paul, and Mary”! 🤣 Don’t ever lose that humour! 😁
Not funny. What Peter went to jail for seems mild compared to Mick Jagger or Clinton & Trump for that matter
I grew up in that era so I do remember them as I was born in 1965.
And I was born in 1960.
Mary Travers had a beautiful voice!!! RIP Mary.
When you get the chance give " I Dig Rock and Roll Music" that came out the fall of 1967. It is a sound alike very much like the Mama's and Papa's with a little Donvan thrown in. Has a cool backwards guitar in it too. Thank you for all you do for us who can not be there.
Yes, they were mimicking The Mamas and Papas intentionally.
Funny you say that, when I first heard it, even recently, I thought it was the Mama's and the Papa's. It's just got their "sound"
Beautiful voice Lamont I mean Mary voice of an angel. 😉
I live right down the road,5,10 miles from Noel Paul Stookey,here in Blue Hill,Maine;I grew up with his twin daughters Kate and Anna,through grammar school and high school,except Kate went to a private high school elsewhere(I know,TMI)....we all just thought of Mr. Stookey as Kate and Anna`s dad,like any other parent.....Along with my best friend,we`d housesit for him and his wife.....anyway,cool that you did Mary`s grave......
Here in Australia they toured in Dec 97. I was mid 20s and although not their biggest fan I still realised what legends they had been so went to see them on a very warm summer night. It was only a few months after John Denver's death so it was poignant to hear LOAJP. Pretty sure they didn't tour again so I am so glad I got to see them live just once and her voice was still very good even at 61.
I remember her songs,and can still sing them.
Thank you Lamont! They were one of my very favorite performers!
You have a nice voice Lamont.
1971, I was 15, first year in high school here in Taiwan and had a very preliminary knowledge about English.
One day heard Cruel War by this group from the radio, crazy about the song and went to buy the tape at once, this was how I knew them, and why I determined to study English better to know more their songs.
Mary RIP
Pervert Paul and Mary lmao you always crack me up Lamont
I remember PP&M very well. Mary Travers lived in Redding, CT. Back in 1998, I also remember going to my regular hair salon in Bethel, CT and I was getting my hair cut and then this very large woman (Mary was not petite in any sense of the word… she stood about 5’10”) sat down in the next station. Signature long straight blonde hair with bangs. It was Mary. She wasn’t the friendliest of people. I smiled at her and she like waved me away. Anyways, I felt very sad when she passed away. RIP Mary.
She's now singing beautiful songs for Jesus.
Doubt that, since she was a devout hardcore atheist. Was a good singer though.
@@TheLunarLumen , I had no clue. Thanks.
Thats not true She was a Jewish convert.@@shirleygiordano7627
How can you forget Leaving on a Jet Plane, and Puff!! love them! TY!
If I had a Hammer🎶
Thank you for doing this video, great job. they had such great music and Mary had a beautiful voice, it's to bad we lost her at such a young age. R.I.P. Mary we all loved you.
She died at the age of 72
Pervert Paul and Mary when you said that it was so funny 🤣 thanks for sharing lamont xx
I'm 24 old and I love their songs. Truly. Rest in peace
From Israel 🇮🇱
Thank you ,always loved their folk style music, just a simple grave ,just simple times.
Typical Connecticut November weather. Thanks Lamont!
One of my favorite female singers. She had wonderful talent and grace.
Mary had a beautiful voice what a great loss to the world RIP…. 👍👏👏
When I was young, I taped all of PP&M's songs so that I could work up fourth harmonies to become Peter, Paul, Mary and Bill, a fantasy and, as with men boys my age, an imagined love affair with Mary. 20 years later as an art gallery director in Wales I rented a car and picked up Mary from a town in the Welsh valleys where she's been performing as a solo act (a club in which Tom Jones also used to perform) and drove her to London. Her one stipulation was that we not sing (really the thing I most wanted us to do together, sigh). In London, we visited the Tate Gallery to see some art. As I was looking at one painting and she another on a different wall, she drifted closer to me until she rested her chin on my head and we stood there pressed together looking at separate paintings for a long time. Until that moment I hadn't realized how tall she was (or how to let go of our not being able to sing together). Thank you for showing her grave.
Thank you bro God bless be safe may the Lord angels protect you
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I met Mary Tra vets at the Newport Folk Festival in 1964. She was so talented and so beautiful.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I know all their songs and can sing them. I would sit in my room and listen to the radio and memorized a lot of songs from then.
I cracked up when you said “Pervert, Paul and Mary”
That was hilarious indeed. 😆
4:25 Aaaaaaaaahahahahahaha! 🤣🤣🤣
I laughed way too hard at that!
much respect........
He is a PERV. Peter (pervert) hit on my old college roommate back in the 80’s. I believe they had several trysts when she traveled to NY. He was old enough to be her grandfather, even back then. YUCK!!
My deceased husband knew that song Puff the Magic Dragon. He used to imitate that song and laugh! Emphasis on "Puff". 😆 Thanks for the video, Lamont!
Do you love me ❤️
I LMFAO when you said " Pervert Paul and Mary! Good one 👍 👏 👌 😄
Great singing Lamont 💖💖💖😂😂
Mary came into the lighting store where I worked in Danbury, CT back in 1980. She bought a lamp. I was just 18. She was very modest and so nice. My best friend was also buried there.
I brought my kids up to Puff the Magic Dragon when they were born in the 2000's and everytime they here PP&M, they listen. To this day, I seek out PP&M on YT to hear beautiful music. What an awesome time it was not only able to witness myself but also pass on to my kids. Hopefully they will remember and pass Mary's wonderful music on to their kids. May she rest in peace after having brought lifetimes full of memories to millions of people!
I went to see Peter Paul and Mary at Ravinia Park outside Chicago in 1990. Loved them. I had no idea about Peter Yarrow past. So sad when Mary died. She really was a rest singer and a spokesperson for a generation.
I can still remember hearing Puff The Magic Dragon when I was 5 years old. Fun fact: the muppet Jan from the Muppet Show Band was inspired by Mary Travers.
Hahaha! As soon as I read that I knew exactly which muppet you were talking about!
@@michellelangdon5134 aaq
I went to a concert with my Mom and it was Peter, Paul, and Mary.
Always loved "Where have all the flowers gone'
WOW! THAT was a GREAT song!
We really appreciate and love your channel and of course you as well😀
Great video. Brought back memories.
Love the voice and hello from Nashua NH
I've had the opportunity to visit her grave. May she rest in peace as the voice of a generation.
Hey, Lamont, you have done it again. Another beautiful tribute video & this time to a lady whose voice resonates in my mind often after listening to her music alongside Peter & Paul. That intro was on point my brother. I thank you for the labor of love that you do & share with us all. I love "Leaving on a jet plane" by the great late, John Denver. Beautiful music from a bygone era. 🙏🏼
John Denver wrote one of their best hits
A big thank you from Australia! I remember this group so well. They were huge here back then. Very similar style to The Seekers. High quality post too.
I always enjoyed Peter, Paul & Mary…my era. ❤
Personally, I'm a big fan of folk music.. ( age 73 ) so , ya, I still blast their music......gotta entertain
the neighborhood don't you know .....the 60's & 70's were the greatest groups & bands....
Mary Travers is my guardian angel. I love her so very much. Very much appreciation for this video.
💜✌🏻🎼
Bro in the beginning of the video you was singing. I found myself rocking back and forth saying sing Lamont lmao. Good job Lamont.
"If I had a hammer....there'd be no more folk singers" (famous NPR tshirt lol from the '90s)
Seriously, Travers was very talented. The first song I learned on the guitar was "Blowin in the Wind." Rest in peace, Mary Travers
Jet pet Travers was bad a$$. Love that song” if I had a hammer”. Now I got to play that song.
Was lucky enough to catch them live in concert at the Orleans in Vegas in the early 2000s...they put on SUCH a good show. I found out after I arrived that they would be appearing, one night only, so I got myself a ticket and extended my stay by one day. So glad I did!
"Very Kool".... I didn't know about "Peter the Perv"... We learn many things from you Lamont!!! 🤗
A good group! Remember them, and remember hearing/listening to them on the radio.
Thanks for visiting her gravesite + sharing! ❤❤❤
I loved her voice and their songs. Rest in peace, Mary! 😪😪😪
When I was growing up,in the late 60’s and early 70’s I used to sing their songs all the time.
I absolutely love this channel! Actually I love all your channels. You are definitely the king of TH-cam!!
Hey lamont!! Thanks for your wonderful content, take care out there and be safe..love both of your channels...
I'm still a big fan of Peter, Paul and Mary. They were awesome and still are. I have a 3 CD set of their music. I play it alot. RIP Mary Travers 🙏 🕊🌹You were loved and still are by this Canadian. 🇨🇦❤
Pervert ,Paul and Mary ! Hilarious!
From this day forward, I still love hearing folk music...especially "Puff the magic dragon. "
