Peter, Paul And Mary 1962

简   介

三人组合Peter, Paul & Mary是1960年代最成功的民谣演唱组合之一。他们是被经理Albert Grossman召集到一起的，他正在寻找一个高大的金发碧眼女郎（Travers）、一个俊朗小伙（Yarrow）和一个爱开玩笑的家伙（Stookey），以组建一个“流行民谣超级组合”。

PPM的音乐紧紧抓住了1960年代早期种族和政治的紧张关系，并把它熟练地融入和声表演中。他们职业生涯的高峰出现在1963年8月，当时他们为刚刚聆听了马丁·路德·金名为“我有一个梦想”的著名演讲的争取黑人自由权利的游行队伍演唱了Blowin' In The Wind。

Brief introduction

The trio Peter, Paul & Mary was one of the most successful folk-singing groups of the 1960s. They were brought together by manager Albert Grossman, who was looking to form a "folk-pop supergroup" made up of a tall blonde girl (Travers), a good-looking guy (Yarrow), and a jokester (Stookey).

The music of PPM captured the zeitgeist of the racially and politically charged early 1960s and combined it with artfully arranged vocal harmonies. In August 1963 their performance of Blowin' In The Wind to an army of black freedom marchers in Washington who had just heard Martin Luther King deliver his "I have a dream" speech was the high point of their career.
