Hip Hop Dj reacts to Peter Paul & Mary. "Blowin in The Wind"

#folkmusicreactions #peterpaulandmary

[@draco4540]

i'm 60 years old. i've enjoyed listening to peter, paul and mary ever since i was a kid. early 1970's. i've never been much of a bob dylan fan (for his singing style. even though it's interesting). but bob dylan is one hell of a good song writer, especially for the 1960's and '70's. he was the right songwriter for the times (during vietnam). i always associated this song with vietnam war. in the same genre of music is: gordon lightfoot (country/folk, he's canadian), jim croce, john denver, james taylor, cat stevens, neil young, lobo,

I was but a little tyke. But, I whole heartedly remember the tears in my mothers eyes when they sang this at Dr King's March on DC. Thanks mom, for teaching me to be a good human, to be fair and just to all.

I came across Folk Music, back in '63. I did something for family friends. They gave me a Brothers Four album. Then my brother introduced me to the Kingston Trio. Saw Peter, Paul & Mary on TV. The late '50s through the mid '60s, what a time for music. Rock-a-Billy, Rock & Roll and Folk Music

[@home8630]

US had Peter, Paul and Mary, we had the Seekers. The Seekers covered Peter, Paul and Mary, and had their own folk music, that we relate to. This music was in my ear of my birth and childhood and different periods of my life, and you can never forget them, because it is full of meaning and they sing about what matters and what needs to be heard if People and the world only listen.

Folk music is actually an extremely broad and varied genre if you can call it that. With this new channel, you'll open up all kinds of possibilities including folk music from around the world if you choose and from different eras. For whatever reasons there have been very few reactions to folk artists in general, and I think that's a shame.

[@sueprator9314]

Really appreciate the background research you are presenting. So many reaction hosts don't quite "get" what a song signifies from a specific decade. Thanks for the intro. This song is so MONUMENTAL. Bob Dylan and then Peter Paul and Mary. The folk era in the US started in the 50s into the 60s. Then it became Folk/Rock. Then as the events of the 60s got darker and more violent, the music became HARDER, STRONGER, more outright specific about the injustices of the War in Vietnam and the Civil Rights movement.

[@88pjtink]

The stood right behind Dr. King as they waited to step up to the mic. What a wonderful moment! Notice the words "Black people" were never spoken in this song, but every person there knew exactly what they were singing about.

One of my older brothers was really into folk music, and they both were into Bob Dylan. I can barely remember a time when I didn’t know this music. This song has been covered many times, beautifully here by Peter, Paul, & Mary. It’s a deep song with a lot of unanswered questions for the listener. Thank you for this reaction.

[@fernmeadow20]

I was a teen during this period and this was one of my favourite albums. The 60’s were a magical time and we young folk thought we could make a better world after the wars others had fought. Sadly some who believed that way then no longer do, hence the state of the world now. So heartbreaking. Thanks again for bringing back my youth my dear. Bless you and enjoy more.

[@sarahdee374]

I think the folk movement was our wake-up-call to our consciousness and conscience. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. No in between, that was a big part of the messaging that I absorbed. I recommend Pete Seeger, he was into justice, "the people" and labor organizing. Very passionate, as I believe most folks singer were.

[@johndavidson5228]

Thanks a lot for folk on top of country. They did a great job with this Bob Dylan song.

Peter, Paul and Mary singing a Bob Dylan song. I could listen to Bob sing this all day (and have), but I have to admit, PPM's version is giving me actual chills. Beautiful song. Powerful performance. It shouldn't still feel this relevant. It should feel like something the world went through and learned from. Please check out some Simon & Garfunkel. Sounds of Silence is a good start, but I heartily recommend the original studio recording. They've done some beautiful live performances of Sounds of Silence but the studio recording has some instrumentation that they don't always do at live shows, and the pacing is just more impactful. The harmonies are insane (in a good way), too.

The true beauty of this tune is it is just as relevant now as it was then. Perhaps more so now than ever - if world leaders would only listen to what it is saying.

Honestly, one of the most profound and powerful and important songs of the 20th century. This along with "The Times They Are 'A Changing" seem to say it all. One of the reasons that Bob Dylan had to be included on the "We Are The World" collaboration, he said it all 20 years before it took place in 1985.

It is kinda weird seeing old videos like this, people that were older than me then, but look so young now. They had great songs. A generation that thought they could really change the world. They gave John Denver’s career a big boost when they recorded a song he had written, Leaving On A Jet Plane. Puff, The Magic Dragon is a great one. It gets into your head and you hum it all day. Also liked 500 Miles.

[@hooleyqueen]

Yes, speaking of John Denver, his famous song, "Country Roads" is still one of the most requested songs of all time, a beautiful song. I wanted to go see the "Blue Ridge Mountains" of Virginia after hearing this song; I was in Virginia, and finally got the chance to see them. They really are so beautiful. Everyone should get the opportunity to see one of the most lovely places in our Nation. Also, while in the area, see the Martin Luther King Monument on the National Mall in Washington, DC.

I met Barry McGuire in a tiny village named Fairfax in Northern California, where I lived for many years with my two youngest children. A former Hippie town, referred to at one time as the "Music Capital of Marin County " where Van Morrison's parents lived and owned a record shop there, before I moved there. When I shook Barry McGuire's hand, I told him that I remembered every word from that song, from my HIgh School days. Definitely one of the most powerful protest songs ever. He has updated it a bit in more recent years. The line, "Don't ya understand what I'm tryin' to say; can't ya feel the fear that I'm feelin' today?" was changed to, "Don't ya feel the fear I'm STILL feelin' today?"

[@tallestmountain]

The great stuff has survived and stood the test of time. As with any form of music, when it becomes popular, performers that should not touch it, decide to jump on the bandwagon. That happened with Country. There was a time only those that loved it would record it. Then when it became popular so many wanted to make a buck off it. Same thing happened with folk. But folk didn’t stay in the forefront of music for long. It was over run by the British Invasion. But, the dedicated found ways to keep it alive, sometimes disguised within those other genres. I am waiting for a new generation to pick up the banner and start a neo folk revival. We certainly have enough social issues they can address in song, most of them the same as what we had back in the 60s

[@noirspective8436]

Watched a brilliant doc last night about the birth of folk. Wow! I had no idea how the social and political aspects, of what was going on in the country at the time, animated the folk moment . I'll post the link for anyone interested.

[@noirspective8436]

I thought I did. Give me a little time to locate it.

[@sueprator9314]

What happened is as the 60s progressed, the War in Vietnam and the Civil Rights struggle became more violent . We lived in dark days and our music evolved into harder music (hard rock) and the use of stronger drugs incl psycheldics. It was a reaction to the 3 assassinations in same decade also. Listen to the Beatles or Marvin Gaye or many groups from the late 60s as to "why" folk was no longer strong enough to say the messages that were being felt. Peter Paul and Mary were the exception, like Dylan and Joan Baez.

Older stuff: Simon and Garfunkel, Dan Fogelberg, Kingston Trio is amazing.

Dave Van Ronk was one of the most important figures in the Greenwich Village folk music scene of the 1960's. He was an activist and a songwriter, a Merchant Marine, and a former member of a barber shop quartet. But it was his involvement in the scene that put him on the map; literally, there's a street in the West Village of New York named after him. lol Here's one of his songs "Dave Van Ronk "Hang Me, Oh Hang Me" it's an audio version but I think it's a beautiful song and I think you may enjoy it as well.

Just noticed - no lead soprano ... which had they had one instead of Mary, would have dominated the melody. As it stands, her low female voice is beautifully mellow and works with, rather than soars over, the two male voices. It's not about having "eye-candy female in thong gyrating at stage front" but just about a beautiful sound. I first noticed this trio from the track "First time ever I saw your face" which haunts me every time I hear it.

The folk genre is as deep and wide as country, rock, blues, and jazz..so many artists from these genres borrow heavily from various folk traditions. There are lots of Celtic folk artists to look into too..The Chieftains, Dubliners, Du Danaan, the Clancy Brothers, Mary Black, and a host of others I myself barely know. You’ll also want to delve into Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, Guy Clark, and John Prine…last two also played on country radio…well some of their stuff, anyway. Paradise or Hello in There is pure folksy country. I call them Social Commentary. Which circles back to Hank Williams.. Men With Broken Hearts or Pictures From Life’s Other Side…sounds a bit folky to me.

That's the "problem" with music, there is so much, in so many styles that while you are looking this way at this group or style something amazing is also happening over there, with some other group or style. It is impossible to run out of new things to listen to. The Folk Music Revival happened largely during the 60's. A lot of it was protest music of one sort or another. Woody Guthrie is the godfather of it, though his writing and performing career somewhat predate it and he is an influence for many in the new revival, including, I believe Bob Dylan. Pete Seger and Ramblin' Jack Elliot are something of a bridge between him and the younger acts, though they both remained active during that time, too. Other artists, off of the top of my head: Joan Baez, the Clancy Bothers and Tommy Makem or just Liam Clancy alone -good grief, my brain just froze, the rest of the group will have to take it up. I came into the scene after it was pretty well over, mid 70s, so a lot of what i know is learned from friends slightly older than I, who lived through it and were looking that way, or by reading. Some truly amazing music came out of that time.

PP&M... I have arrived 😅 Lots of influence cross over to country. Honestly, I often have a hard time placing many songs or artists, as genres are often more like tangled vines than trees with clear roots and branches. Some artists clearly cross lines and others try to dedicate to a genre but are still influenced by artists from around. There are also songs that jump genres. This will probably open up an opportunity to hear Simon and Garfunkel's Sounds of Silence, but also it's being reimagined by the Metal artist Disturbed. On that same note, I don't recall if you ever did Cash's Hurt. It was a rebirth of Hurt by Nine Inch Nails. If you haven't, I would throw that your way for the country channel. It would be good to hear both on that as well. These are both great crossover songs in seemingly foreign genres yet both became so much more in the process (and they are fan favorites that tend to get a lot of views).

No one I know my age doesn't know this song. It was a massive hit. It became part of the music played at Vietnam protest after Bob Dylan released it in 1963. I like the Peter, Paul and Mary sound but prefer Bob Dylan's. Bob Dylan is one of the best poet musicians of the day. His voice can sound rough but it can also sound smooth when he wants it to. It's the songs, the lyrics he wrote that touched a generation of idealist. Myself included. We put on our bell bottoms, embroidered blouses, beads and wide brim floppy hats and stuck out our thumbs. Lived in communes believing we could create a utopia of everyone respecting and loving each other working peacefully together to help the people thrive. Sadly it was a social experiment doomed to failure. Greed and debauchery took the day and love and peace had to find another way.

@@landenchantment I've encountered people that make the same argument for spoken word country influencing rap/hip hop. I really don't believe early rappers were listening to Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash. I believe that the similarities between spoken word American Folk, spoken word Country and spoken word Blues exist do to a common ancestor in African Folk. Basically every type of American music was developed in the South and was influenced at least partially by "Spirituals" and "Work Songs" that were in turn influenced by African Folk. American genres tend to bleed into one another. For example, go listen to Led Zeppelin (who are actually British) "When the Levee Breaks". Is it Rock, Blues or a Spiritual. I think it's all three.

You missed it actually. It wasn't hippie music at all. IT PRECLUDED THE HIPPIE thing. I know cuz I was born and raised in SF and graduated from High school same year as the Summer of Love -1967. Folk music goes back to the 1950s with the Kingston Trio and then in the early 60s (Joan Baez, Mimi Farina)Bob Dylan etc. It evolved into Folk/Rock. Then 1966-67 the Hippie era was born. Music became darker by late 1968. Doesn't matter whether you heard the BEATLES or Marvin Gaye. It was a stronger more painful message. Folk music, other than Peter Paul and Mary gave way to Hard Rock and even stronger message music from Motown.
