Thread Name: Most Influential Album?
Subject: RE: Most Influential Album?
Peter Paul and Mary's first album popularized folk music and was the first exposure many of us had to it. It included "Five Hundred Miles", "Lemon Tree", "Where Have All the Flowers Gone", and the hit Pete Seeger tune "If I Had a Hammer", ("The Hammer Song.") The album was listed on Billboard Magazine Top Ten list for ten months and in the Top One Hundred for over three years.
