How times have changed! I thought Peter, Paul & Mary were “weird-looking” in 1962. This is now embarrassing as I see nothing weird in their look today.
A couple of years ago, I was with them for the first time since the reference on this tape. They were most gracious and, because it was so early in their career, actually remembered my working with them in Milwaukee. Paul Stookey told my oldest son, Barry, “Your dad taught us how to use a microphone.”
The drummer on the #1 record that week, Sheila, is Mike Clark who, together with Bill Lowery owned Southern Tracks Studios where some of today’s giants, such as Bruce Springsteen, recorded smash hits.
