JUDY COLLINS, Kingston Trio, Mary Travers - "All My LIfe's A Circle" 1982

[@allenfriedman2441]

EVERYBODY WHO'S ANYBODY IN FOLK, THE 60'S MY FAVORITE PART OF LIFE

[@coldlakealta4043]

2023: the musicians age and pass on, but the beauty of their music lives forever

[@vincentbriegel7038]

Yes

[@wfj50]

Damn lucky Tom Paxton. He had his arms around Mary Travers and Judy Collins!

[@lynntempleton9640]

Harry Chapin was only with us for a brief time, but his influence was immense...as was his joy.

[@josephlibby2066]

At age 83, this best describes life. I have been fortunate to see all of our children graduate from high school and college, get married and see eight grandchildren. My father died young of a heart attack and never saw these joys.

[@jamesdolan4042]

I think the audience clapping wiped out Mary Travers wonderful, unique contribution to this great song.

[@LLewis-vu9qf]

I was disappointed that happened as well. She made a valiant effort to be heard above the applause and almost succeeded. She can really project her voice. When the whole group sang, you could almost pick her voice out over the others.

[@isabelthomas2957]

I am smiling non stop and dedicating this song to my Daddy who passed over in 1991. He taught my little sister and i to sing harmony to the kingston trio and peter paul and mary and so many more. We learned all the great ballads and folk songs then and they are still my favorite to this day.. in 2023. I am his oldest daughter Isabel, i just turned 63. For God's purpose i am the last living Thomas in our family. But in my heart i know they are all with me as i complete my own journey. I love u all and my angels carry to you my prayers, wishes and songs. ....So.... Daddy would sing softly "Scarlet ribbons" to us,* my little sister Karen i* as a lullaby each night at bed time. So glad i could still find it.

[@johnboyle3884]

i think i,m going to play this one over and over again...........

[@Johnboy33545]

This has me crying tears of joy. Sweet memories for an old hippie.

[@elleneger6685]

Yes this song was a delight to hear after so many years.

[@robertalleman4757]

So agree; what a beautiful song and tribute

[@tommylittlefield6310]

Amen

[@hiroshi6710]

I was 3 years-old "Tears Of Joy" Amen

[@josephinerimmer6888]

Oh God! Me too! Right in front of my family. I couldn’t tell them why I was crying.

[@4estdweller4ever]

Wow! What a TREAT! There is just nothing better to soothe a troubled heart with than some kind hearted folk music with more stars than the Milky Way.

[@nicolosito]

The two most outstanding singing voices in this remarkable group of talented people are undoubtedly Judy Collins and Glen Yarborough.

[@adrianwright2884]

Fantastic those were the days.

[@jayturner3397]

2022..world in chaos am in tears wonderful this uk

[@LuckyBadger]

Back when music made you happy deep in your soul.

[@joannehardin4868]

All of these singers were/are my favorites, Mary Travers, Judy Collins, Glen Yarborough. Just wonderful memories.

[@musicfanBRA]

Also, notice the thrill in the audience when Mary Travers comes in, sweet and charismatic Mary from Peter, Paul & Mary. This clip made my day.

[@PHJimY]

Unfortunately though, the applause drowned out Mary's contribution to the song.

[@davisdurand]

@@PHJimY She definitely had an aura about her. More than anybody else in the room. However, Judy Collins had a voice that was second to none.

[@davidlenander]

@@PHJimY If you hunt up a copy of Mary's fourth solo record, _Circles_, you can hear her sing the whole song. Why it (and her 3rd LP) have never been released digitally is a mystery to me.

[@tomoconnor7229]

THAT'S how to sing the song!! Harry would approve!!

[@HeartoftheDragonColo]

RIP John Stewart, Bob Shane, Roger Gambill, Dave Guard (Kingston Trio), Phil Austin & Peter Bergman (Firesign Theatre), Lou Gottlieb & Glenn Yarbrough (Limeliters), Mary Travers & others who may have passed on.

[@ejd43]

My goodness. Such wonderful memories this brings to mind to this old (77) lady!

[@sooz9433]

Unbelievable group from my past... thank you for this share. It touched a place in my heart that was long forgotten. 🎼🖤

[@peggykrainman7216]

I remember this event and now that I'm older, it means more to me. 🙂

[@sueroork8452]

In 1957 I was in love with the music of the Kingston Trio! Was over joyed to find them again in The Villages, Fl. Took me right back 60 years ago when I was young and yet to find love.

[@relikborg]

I wish I could like this video more than once, it is beyond heavenly, it is perfection.

[@sandybrown4764]

That was fantastic! A great collection of truly marvelous voices to help us remember one of Harry Chapin's greats. Don't try to tell me you didn't sing along, because I know you did!!!

[@wfj50]

You're right, Sandy!

[@cricketbat09]

Folk music has power.

[@kaykingston7236]

God's Plan Word Spiritual Warfare is You Know No....ah 8

[@georgedemchak7905]

Harry Chapiin was a master at putting words to feelings!

[@hongdoile4133]

Www

[@mamadillo9994]

Have you ever heard his younger brother Tom? He's as good as Harry was, although he takes a slightly different path for subject matter. He still does the occasional tour, but mostly he sings close to home. And he still does kids' shows also, frequently accompanied by his own, now grown, kids. A wonderful lack of planning by the group that booked him in my town prompted me to ask if he'd like to join me for an early dinner and I'd be happy to lead him back to the airport. We ended up talking mostly about all our kids,and it was a lovely couple of hours. I'm still a groupie.

[@lbcharlie05]

Harry wrote the same way he lived! I still miss him.

[@vanessawaddle1963]

A rare gem

[@steveroberts8719]

Mary Travers brought so much joy to millions around the globe. What a voice. What compassion for life and beauty and music. We will miss her but thank the Lord we have her music.

[@Msfifisquarepantz]

Huh? Did you know Mary? I don’t think so.

[@Huineng10]

What a joy! Now in my eighties, this brought such a smile to my face. The music of my era! The music of my story!

[@paulcolli9841]

Good lord this is beautiful

[@MrBig1946]

“All my life’s a circle.” Oh, wow. Except for Judy and Mary, I didn’t recognize the faces. But once they started, I’ll NEVER forget the voices and the memories of yesteryear just came flooding back. Absolutely outstanding. We’ll never have anything like this again.

[@2023FourRunner]

My Favorite Harry Song. Got to Sing with Harry for a Whole.5 Secongs at the Greek Theater just before He Died. Marvelous Memory

[@lesjack1]

Wow, I would love to have been at that concert! What an amazing group of musicians paying tribute to one of the greatest singer songwriter and humanitarians of our time! We miss you Harry but are better for your having been here!

[@dreamyblue44]

Now that's what I call a super-group!

[@utube4619]

Lovely gathering, a happy time but my heart sinks every time i watch this concert as three of our favorites have left us; Mary, Bob and the other trio, forgot his name (one of my favorites). Wonderful hearing such beautiful repertoire but sad and nostalgic at the same time. miss miss them!

[@Thekarlskorner]

Roger Gambil.

[@seabrookthemagnificent9580]

Glen Yarborough just passed away a couple of days ago at age 86. What a beautiful voice the World lost that day!

[@jennysmallman437]

Seabrook the Magnificent u

[@Jackknifegyp]

The most unique pair of vocal chords of the era. Great surprise.

[@joannehardin4868]

Seabrook the Magnificent what a marvelous voice Glen Yarborough had.

[@GrandpaCanCook]

Loved. All that talent singing such a wonderful son. Kind of like a baby-boomer dream . I'm always so happy when someone post these gems.

[@mamadillo9994]

We Boomers know great music and great singers when we hear them. These were among the best for us.

[@rogerkiser5108]

It great to find an old song that still moves you again

[@TheBatugan77]

Saw Harry 3 times. A friend of mine was at a venue waiting for him to perform the day he died. He was missed then and always will be.

[@markthompson4804]

So much talent in one room!

[@angelsonthemountain321]

Hearing Mary singing this just melted me.

[@sanyasuk.8003]

So beautiful..

[@utube4619]

Watching this program always saddens me for the lost of Mary Travers and Bob Shane they were and have always been my favorites (so was Phil Everly!), beautiful reunion.

[@laurencedauplay5649]

Such loving ambiance then,.....lovely!

[@michelleshereck6961]

You know this was the inspiration for the final concert of the movie Mighty Wind...Live and Love them both....

[@MrBig1946]

There will be such a beloved ensemble like this again. The only two that I recognized on-sight were Mary Travers and Judy Collins. All rest got names, with a dropped jaw and an Oh!, as soon as I heard their voices. Just outstanding. Thank you very much!

[@BeatlesGirlKaren]

The beautiful voice of Glenn Yarbrough brought me here ~ RIP Glenn

A wonderful tribute to Harry !

[@cindycchesney5716]

Thanks for one of my all time favorite songs Harry! From the Cheap Seats! Your concerts will always live on,

[@paulcolli9841]

I can listen to Glenn and ms. Judy over and over again all day long. God bless them

[@wilmarmarquessouza7768]

Music is LIFE! Beautiful

[@joestephan1111]

As a musician in my younger days I can assure you that the greatest tribute of respect a fallen musical artist could ever have is when a group of colleagues & peers gather to lay down your music. Thank you Harry for everything you gave this crummy world. I had never heard this song until now. Every single word fits my own crummy life. Godspeed.

[@ftjax]

Hear the harmony, see the past....thankfully it will roll through ages just like the song

[@BeatlesGirlKaren]

Haven't seen this much talent all at once on stage since!

[@sarahmckenzie5020]

The new serif

[@jkdm7653]

Thank you SOOOOO much for this! What a gathering of talent in one place! How great to see Glenn Yarbrough, Alex Hassilev, and Lou Gottlieb or the Limeliters, the Kingstons, three of the original Brothers Four, and Judy Blue Eyes all at once.What memories!

[@dianagurman3649]

Wonderful music and wonderful singers. A pleasure.

[@kevdev123]

A great song, which was used (here in Australia), as a backdrop to the disaster of the Munich Olympics in 1972.

[@tedgurecki7657]

Beautiful.!

[@buckfan1969]

Beautiful tribute for a good man.

[@philgillmartin5053]

Judy Collins voice - amazing. Love it.

[@paulmyers7078]

Forty years have passed since this concert was performed. Has it really been that long? Seems like just yesterday. Years gone by and with them the aspirations of our youth.

[@michaelterry377]

It seems like I've been here before, I can't remember when But I got this funny feelin' that I'll be back once again

[@carolbaker654]

What a collection of singing talent !

[@nancybcastner2313]

This gathering is so wonderful....Judy Collins is my favorite..

[@terryely7341]

Wow, that really takes me back.. How lucy we were to live back in that olace in time.....

[@om92555]

A great tribute to Harry Chapin.

[@pdef1949]

I just chanced across this video today and was moved by it. All my musical heroes from my youth, my earliest musical inspirations. I was lucky enough to see some of them live....Tom Paxton, Mary Travers, Bob Gibson (who was not in this show), the Kingston Trio 1981 version.

[@mikestyles499]

Folk music was my first musical love, bc my Mom would play it on her piano, and we would all sing together as a family. That led me to like The Loving Spoonful.

[@gjm1953]

I still miss Mary so very much. This clip is fantastic. It was great to hear all these greats like Glen Yarbourough, Judy Collins and, of course, the great Mary Travers.

[@peelermac]

I'm just discovering this song and I love it. All my favorite singers from the 60's!

[@moyragrant7287]

Wow, this is some line-up. Thanks.

[@nancywalters3661]

WHAT WONDERFUL SONGS, WHAT WONDERFUL TIMES.

[@Superbri-1]

Beautiful song and so poingnant no matter what era you aspire to sad that our favourites have to leave us as we will also one day but so happy to have lived through their beauty and carry that with us always.

[@steviedepaoli2717]

That's a bad ass group of talent!

[@marymiller7865]

Judy Collins, Mary Travers, so many more! Love this video, thanks for posting. To me, the very best part was when Glenn Yarbrough came on and sang a verse. His voice always carries me away.

[@derfberfel785]

I havent seen an autoharp since Mrs Ann Weeks played in music class in 68 word up

[@derfberfel785]

Judy Collins beautiful knowxas always she is family

[@harrysnydick4994]

So glad to read another Glen Yarborough fan. He certainly is on my shortlist for top five.

Wow! Brought tears to my eyes!

Some heavy hitters here. All superstars of the folk world. Wow!

great song performed by some great performers--written by an amazing guy named Harry Chapin

[@blinko656]

[@hitoshinakai1020]

Fantastic! It's a beautiful ending of the showtime. this is one of the best American songs forever. Have a good night!

[@amrismacanfhiach9859]

Thank you to the dear friend who pointed me to this. We sang it at her and her husband's wedding in '80 or '81.

[@jamesrafferty9048]

Just one more legendary concert produced by the one & only Irving Steinbloom

[@wilmarmarquessouza2132]

Wondeful song ! Thank you my friend !

[@sebxiou-lifestyle4465]

It is beyond my comprehension why people go to listen to excellent musicians then make a racket when they appear on stage mid-song. Why do people not wait until the end to clap? The song was ruined, alas by that racket. Nonetheless, thank you for posting. Always excellent to see Peter, Paul and MARY.

[@karenfitzsimons2206]

I remember this song from when I was fourteen years of age, living in Germany with my c mother and father.I actually heard it on one of the German radio stations, rather than the Armed Forces Network.

[@leonardprovost2634]

Great memories,those were the days!

[@Miklos82]

A who's who of 70's folk music. A wonderful treat. Thanks to whoever posted it.
