The Weavers had their performing/recording peak in the early'50s, and for those of a later generations and without much interest in the folk revival in the U.S., especially if you're a strict "traddie", I suppose it's possible to have missed them (and Ronnie Gilbert) completely. But, if you have any interest in the influences on your influences, you might want to look 'em up.
