Mary Travers & The Kingston Trio - Where Have All The Flowers Gone

The Kingston Trio & Friends Reunion Concert - 1982.

[@elviejodelmar2795]

I saw the Kingston Trio on my way to Vietnam in 1969 and heard this song. Being young and stupid, the true impact of the lyrics went right over my head. Now, at 77 and watching the world slide into chaos and violence again, the inevitability of the words, "When will we ever learn?" is a poignant reminder that mankind can't seem to stop slaughtering each other.

[@rvnmedic1968]

This was and still is a great anti-war song. I had the 45 RPM record in 1962 and played it when I was introspective about the Vietnam War. I went there in 1968. Like you, I'm 77 this year. Welcome Home. Bob Powell, CMSgt, USAF (Ret)

Vietnam and the Mideast wars had rules of engagement forced on the military, that made these wars last longer so their buddies in the "Military Industrial Complex," could get richer supplying the wars. If you got fired on, you had to call for permission to fire and warning shot at them, before you could shoot back to kill them. President Eisenhower warned about when he was leaving office. He said. "Beware of The Military Industrial Complex." Ask anyone that was in Vietnam or the Mideast wars.

[@kevincrosby1760]

@@sandragruhle6288 The common reason stated for Vietnam was to protect South Vietnam from the NVA, and to halt communist forces in the North. It is generally considered that we lost the war. In actuality, you need to go back a few decades and look at the Japanese strategy during WW II, and how well "island hopping" worked for them. The war did serve to deny China the ability to seize Vietnam, which was very much their goal. This would have given them unrestricted access to the Paracel and Spratley Islands, making it a short jaunt to the Philippines. From there, follow the Japanese path to Hawaii. The underlying reasons for Korea were much the same. At that time, the Chinese lacked the ability to directly attack the US, but was quite capable of using the Japanese "one island at a time" approach. A Chinese presence in Hawaii would have given them the foothold needed to directly attack the US. What was found in contemporary news releases and school textbooks from that era to present do not really line up well with what is available to a bored sailor sitting in the library of a US Navy ship reading USN/DoD books about naval strategy. China is NOT our friend, and never has been. While the USSR/Russia has been the bogieman in the forefront, our military posture has been to reign in China as much or more than the Soviets/Russians over the past 75+ years. Speaking to Vietnam specifically, the Democrat-controlled US Government outright lied to us. The white House was quite aware that the whole Gulf of Tonkin affair was a combination of equipment issues and human error, and was NOT an attack by the NVA on US Naval Forces. While Johnson was sabre-rattling on the evening news, the USN was dispatching instructions for equipment upgrades and personnel training to prevent a similar mistake. The second major mistake with Vietnam was to simultaneously commit troops in-country AND set overly restrictive Rules of Engagement. We are all adults here, so I will be blunt. The sole purpose of the US (or any other) military is to kill people and blow shit up. That is what they are trained and equipped to do. What SHOULD have happened was to directly, immediately, and harshly stomp on any incursions by the NVA, China, and the Viet-Cong with all the force and means available...then go back to base or back to the ship. Instead, we opted to basically attempt to occupy an entire country, with an R.O.E. which prevented our even pasting the airbase where the planes which just bombed our troops were landing, just because it was 5 miles past an arbitrary line drawn by politicians in WA DC. Putting line troops on the ground in a situation which could have been handled primarily with Naval air assets and selective ground assaults cost the lives of thousands of troops and civilians on BOTH sides.

My first record album was the Kingston Trio. Our "Men's Trio" ( me Tenor) sang some of their songs at a HS performance. I survived my 4 years as a Soldier (US Marines) Out in 1969. Some of my buddies went to Graveyards. Long time ago.

Ah, the world famous Mary Travers head flip!! She was sooooo good!

[@johnborzcik3058]

There is nothing more than to compliment Mary Travers. A favorite of mine since the late 60's. What a treat to to enjoy this vidio! THANK YOU!!

[@warplanner8852]

Kid at a boarding school in Menlo Park on the peninsula in the early 1960s. Me and my bud went to the Hungry I to catch the Kingston Trio. (Bob Shane and Nick Reynolds attended the same boarding schools and its associated junior college. Dave Guard attended Stanford.) A couple of years later, same friends, same venue, caught PP&M and fell in love with Mary Travers. God almighty was she gorgeous with her blonde hair and blue eyes! I am still in love with her memory.

[@gibsalisbury]

She had such a beautiful voice. Loved Peter,Paul and Mary.

Where have all the great singers and bands gone ? this is from a wonderfull time when they could sing, was sweet and funny and great times, , , todays they can mot even make one hit. ,

[@raymondhummel5211]

I remember singing Peter, Paul & Mary, Kingston Trio, the Limelighters, etc. in the 1960's. Folk music was so popular then and still is. Mary with her long blonde hair and loving voice captured the hearts of those that seen and heard her. Peter and Paul were wonderful singers and guitar players too. Yes, for sure they were loved back then and still are. Let their music play on! ❤

[@skipkirkwood9935]

Terrific harmonies from one of my childhood favorites.

[@chrisarcher6972]

I'm a rocker (by which, I mean when rock was rock, not that 80s 'hair band' crap, etc) - but beautiful voices, perfect harmonising, people who can actually play instruments... gets me every time, baby! Wonderful stuff.

I was so blessed to become almost a driend of Mary's during her solo years in the 70s. I attended many of her shows and eventually was invited backstage , which became a regular occurence each time I saw her. She was so gracious, smart...and beautiful. Ilove the PPM stuff, but there was something somagical about Mary's solo shows. It's a shame that her solo albums have not been reissued. I still miss this wonderful, warm, talented woman.

A Young Mary Travers as i have never seen her before. So alive vibrant, happy, humorous. Fabulous

[@nikhilsoneja4257]

It's amazing how different her speaking voice is from her singing voice. Both beautiful timbres but so distinct.

[@stephensmith60]

Wow! Fabulous! 👏🏻😁🙏. Gone - but NOT forgotten!

[@SteveSmith-eb6ze]

Mary had one beautiful voice.

[@RonSafreed]

I remember this song when I was 7 years old in 1963 on am radio of that day & time & hearing it again after so many years, it is just as beautiful as back then now in 2023, 60 years later!1

Had the pleasure of seeing PP&M at Blue Hill, Maine, many years ago. Sung their songs in college in the 1960s, have all their albums up to 1970 or so. Mary Travers was a national treasure!

[@awkwarddude]

I also was in college in the mid to late 60s. Got to see PP&M at our college in Youngstown at the college stadium I think Summer '68. Folk ballads of the 60s were unique and powerful. An era likely never to be seen again.

[@thepic4139]

My goodness, what a beautiful performance. These 4 brilliant performers, when they come together, blend so seamlessly that the performance has a New Seekers feel to it, three men and a strong female lead. Some other commenter mentioned Judith Durham, the late lead singer for the New Seekers, and while you cannot compare the two ladies as they each had their own brilliance, you just get the feeling that this was done by the New Seekers, it was that compelling a performance. God bless the memories of both Mary and Judith.

[@rorysullivan4913]

As South African never realised the significance of these songs in the early sixties but loved them. Fills me with so much nostalgia as my Mom used to listen to them. Time has just gone!!!

[@LynnWestland]

Saw them in !999 summer. Mary was still singing strong. A cherished memory was so fortunate to have her here in my journey. Surely to outlast its significance in times far beyond the life of the artist short time on this earth. Thankyou Mary, Peter and Paul. You have shown us what love on earth is all about

[@johnmcclain3887]

I grew up to this, some overseas, then "stateside" , and then into the Marines, back overseas. Fifty years later, I look back and wonder why I couldn't get it, then, as I see so clearly now. I have great grandchildren now, eight and five, and I can only hope, pray they can get it better than I ever did.

[@chrisdevalcourt648]

Keep praying John! The wisdom grandpa shares will be remembered.

Mary had a one of a kind voice. I was fortunate enough to see PP&M in Mary's later years. Thank you for the video.
