Mary Travers of Peter, Paul and Mary has Died

No agreement with her politics, but I loved the music. Mary Travers has died at 72.

Mary Travers, one-third of the hugely popular 1960s folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary, has died.

The band’s publicist, Heather Lylis, says Travers died at Danbury Hospital in Connecticut on Wednesday. She was 72 and had battled leukemia for several years.

Travers joined forces with Peter Yarrow and Noel Paul Stookey in the early 1960s.

I’m not going to delve into her politics here, let’s just listen to what is arguably one of the trios most well known songs.
