That was a hoot; thanks for that. Here's the Purple Onion track (starts at about the 5 minute mark)

You're welcome. There was another one on youtube that was the Smothers Brothers, Peter Paul and Mary and Donovan all performing together. Good stuff, but the interesting thing was that after you watched it, you could then watch a whole lot more videos of PP&M. I stayed up until about 2 watching videos of them. God, they were good. Paul Stookey singing The Wedding Song could just about move you to tears.

I love Peter Paul & Mary. My dad would make his own mix tapes (8 track tapes, to be specific) for road trips and he loved 60s folk, so it was a lot of Peter Paul & Mary, the Kingston Trio, Simon & Garfunkel, etc.

PP&M's harmonies sure could move you to tears. Hell, even "Puff the Magic Dragon" can make me cry, especially now that I've got a kid of my own.
