A Simpler Time


Today is strange.
I am in front of my computer, using the cutting age of technology and was sent a video via face book to a Monty Python skit. After I had seen a few Python skits it occurred to search for Peter, Paul and Mary.
I was tossed back to my youth. Many of the songs in concert were in black & white. I remember going to their. concerts at Place des Arts. I was in my teens, as I remember the tickets being about 8$ Songs were of the anti war /peace type. They were the full show no fancy stuff, no opening act. They sang, there was a 15 minute intermission and they sang again. I sang along to every song: “Times are a Changin”, “500 Miles “ “Blowin in the Wind”,"Puff the Magic Dragon (yup just about a little boy & his dragon)"There is a Ship" "If I Had a Hammer" I knew the words cause I had all their albums.
Two guitars, three voices.
Thank-you P.P.& M.
