Subject: CHILDREN ONE & ALL -- MARY TRAVERS SONG From: WyoWoman Date: 23 Feb 07 - 05:45 PM I'm trying to find a recording of "Children One & All," which was on Mary Travers "Mary" album, recorded around 1971. I haven't been able to find any recordings of this album -- apparently no remastering to CD has been done on this one. Anyone out there have a copy of the LP they'd be willing to record to tape or -- could it be possible? -- CD for me? I'd love to perform that song now that my voice is all growed up ... --ww |

Subject: RE: CHILDREN ONE & ALL -- MARY TRAVERS SONG From: GUEST,Joe Offer, at the Women's Center Date: 23 Feb 07 - 08:37 PM Hi-ho, Wy-o- Gee, I wish that Warner would reissue those PP&M solo albums. I think all the Noel Paul Stookey solo albums are available on CD, but not Peter and Mary. The first ones were best - titled
All I can remember is this:
Some of us live in small Some of our children wear white linen, Some wear nothing at all. But..... ..... Children one and all. It's way back there in the recesses of my memory and won't come out. Nice to see you've been around a bit lately. I enjoyed meeting your singing friend at Camp Harmony. -Joe- |

Subject: Lyr Add: CHILDREN ONE AND ALL (Rod McKuen) From: BK Lick Date: 23 Feb 07 - 10:45 PM Found here (click me): I wrote "Children One And All" in 1964 and finally published it in 1968. It was meant to celebrate the differences of people yet to show that beyond those differences we are all alike in our need for (and deserving of) respect, understanding, tolerance and fair treatment from each other. Mary Travers first sang it when she guested on my BBC TV series and later made a very moving recording of it. The words and music to "Children One And All" can be found in Songs of Rod McKuen Vol.1. I've reprinted the words below. -- Rod McKuen |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Children One and All -- Mary Travers Song From: GUEST,Katy Date: 06 Feb 08 - 09:37 PM I have the Album "Mary" with "Children One and All on it" If you still would like a copy of the song I could record it onto a cassette tape for you. First time I've been to this site... stumbles upon it... so I don't know how things work here. Let me know. |

That way you can speak with people who are also members via messages that are not posted for anyone to see except the person you messaged. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Children One and All -- Mary Travers From: Rapparee Date: 06 Feb 08 - 09:52 PM It's really a very nice place. And there are even some people here who are real musicians (people like, I hate to say, Peace). I'm a librarian, myself. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Children One and All -- Mary Travers Song From: Joe Offer Date: 07 Feb 08 - 01:46 AM I'm glad this thread was revived. My son gave me a copy of the Mary LP, and I've been meaning to rip it to MP3. I have WyoWoman's e-mail, so I'll send her a copy. I don't want to usurp your offer, Katy, but it might be easier to rip the song and e-mail it. It's a wonderful album, isn't it? I've always like this song, and would never have guessed it was by Rod McKuen. I've always had an amount of disdain for Poor Old Rod - but I guess I have to admit he had a few moments of brilliance (as long as you don't have to listen to him sing). -Joe- |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Children One and All -- Mary Travers Song From: GUEST Date: 08 Feb 08 - 10:47 AM Joe, O.K. you can do that. I don't think I know how to rip anyway. :-) I just happened upon this site looking for the lyrics "Children One and All"... my album is way away somewhere. :-) You all got me in the mood to listento it now. think I'll go get that out and play it again. I do have a new turntable plugged into my CD stereo set. Oh, yes, I loved Mary's albums, including "I wish I knew how it would feel to be free", and "The First Time" (think that's the name of it) and others. Anyway, I will take you up on your invitation to register here. Thanks. Katy |
