Editorial Reviews

Product Description

The most celebrated American folk-singing group ever their very name is synonymous with a certain sound and ethic Peter, Paul And Mary united 40-plus years ago in Greenwich Village. An instant phenomenon then, today their musical legacy is universally beloved thanks to timeless hits including: "Blowin' In The Wind," "If I Had A Hammer," "Leaving On A Jet Plane," and "Puff, The Magic Dragon." IN THESE TIMES showcases PP&M's unwavering commitment to America's folk heritage and social justice . . . and, of course, their extraordinary voices, which shine on this uplifting release.

The first new studio album in nearly a decade from the legendary trio.
Produced by Peter, Paul and Mary themselves!
Contains 12 new recordings including originals by Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey, and Mary Travers, plus selections by Pete Seeger, Anne Feeney, Gene Nelson, Bill Staines, Bob Franke, and more.
Complete lyrics reprinted in CD booklet including a new poem by Mary Travers.

Amazon.com

Peter, Paul and Mary released their first LP in 1962, and--apart from an early-'70s hiatus--they have been going strong ever since. In These Times, their 2004 release, doesn't really tinker with the formula that propelled them into the spotlight all those years ago, but if the canny blend of traditional tunes, social commentary, and contemporary compositions still works, why change it? Their voices no longer have the vigor and clarity they once did, but on songs like "Jesus on the Wire," a stark mediation on the death of Matthew Shepard composed by Thea Hopkins, or the folk classic "Wayfaring Stranger," the whispery tone and wobbling harmonies add poignancy to the hard-earned authority of the performances. In its basic format, In These Times recalls Peter, Paul and Mary's earlier recordings, but the songs themselves, most of which were composed in the last few years, show that the trio has successfully resisted the urge to wallow in nostalgia. --Michael John Simmons

Their Fight Hasn't Changed

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2005

Verified Purchase

Most of the groups that started in the sixties have either disbanded, died, or moved far away from the sounds and ideas that got them their popularity in the first place. Not so this group, a group that I think can appeal to almost every segment of American (and even world) society. Their voices have changed over the years; Mary no longer soars, but instead has a warmth and mellowness that you can wallow in; Peter now has a serious case of the wobbles, but which fits perfectly with the type of songs in this album; Paul perhaps has changed the least, with his distinctive phrasing and solid bass.

But this album proves that the type of songs they started with back in 1962 is still the focus of this group, songs that celebrate the unity of all mankind, that strike out against prejudice, bigotry, and the inhumanities against both spirit and body that are still all too prevalent in the world today.

"Jesus on the Wire" is a truly haunting portrait in song of just these points; Mary's current voice seems almost perfect for this image of a truly horrendous act. Regardless of your own views of homosexuality, this song will drive home what being a human is.

"Invisible People" highlights the blinding arrogance of some people and groups, and its deadly effects on those left outside of their closed vision.

"Some Walls" harmonically doesn't work as well for me as some of the other songs here, but it is still a very pretty song with an acid bite.

"Don't Laugh at Me" will probably strike a chord with everyone, as I think we've all been subjected to ridicule or ostracism at one point or another for some perceived flaw in character or looks.

"All God's Critters" highlights the fact that this group can still have fun, that they still enjoy children and children's songs, and I don't see how you can't end up singing along with this one.

Musically, most of the songs here are simple, done with only a few acoustic instruments, almost a complete return to the type of sound they had on their very first album. It's striking, haunting, and richly enfolding. I just wish this group could go on singing forever.

The Message Remains The Same

Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2004

Verified Purchase

God bless Peter, Paul and Mary. Their music may not sound quite as good as it did 40 years ago-- although they have nothing to be ashamed of on this album-- their message remains the same: we must fight oppression wherever we find it. (Actually this great group now includes positive songs about gay people, something they probably couldn't have gotten away with in the early 60's.) According to the information included with the CD, a portion of the royalties from the sale of it goes to People For The American Way Foundation, an organization dear to many of our hearts.
Most of the songs on this CD are new, according to the copyright dates, and most of them celebrate diversity. There are of course some of the classic composers of this sort of song included here from Woody Guthrie to Pete Seeger. But there is also a moving tribute to Matthew Shepherd ("Jesus Is On The Wire") and one of my favorites called "Some Walls." Pete Seeger's "Oh, Had I A Golden Thread," the final cut on this CD will make your spine tingle and/or your eyes burn. The group sings this beautiful classic very slowly accompanied only be a mandolin and a obbligato-like lick by a harmonica. Moving beyond words. These folks still sing well!
Listening to this CD, however, is bittersweet. I could not call a dear friend with whom I first attended a P, P and M concert many years ago and tell him to rush out and buy this great new CD. He fell to AIDS in 1988 during the reign of an American president who for years into his presidency could not utter the word in public, let alone, by his example, fight for better treatment if not a cure.

Their last bow

Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2010

Verified Purchase

As far as I know this was the final album from the folk-singing trio, Peter, Paul and Mary, who had been singing together not quite continuously from 1962 until 2003... the date of this release. Some reviewers have complained about the difference between the voices on this recording and those heard on releases of the 1960s. You need to wind your calendars, numboids! Last time I looked it was 2010. At the age of 70, I sound quite different than I did as a callow youth of 25.

There's much good stuff here, including my favorite song of the set, "Some Walls." The album ends with two songs, "Oh, Had I a Golden Thread," and "Mi Caballo Blanco," which have the sound of a moving farewell bow, and end with well-deserved audience applause.

I also liked the medley of union organizing songs from the 1930s, which opens the CD, and "Jesus is on the Wire," which deals with a hate crime which was shocking 10 years ago, but alas has now become so common, as the US spirals ever deeper into polarization and Nazification, that it's back page stuff. "All God's Critters" is a song for kids that gives Peter, Noel and Mary a chance to do animal imitations. The album's low points are probably "It's Magic," most of the lyrics of which are sung in an unintelligible mutter, and "Don't Laugh at Me," which here at least gets a fuller performance than the usual. There are a number of spirituals, very well done.

This would have been worth the money just for "Some Walls." The other very good tracks are just more icing on an already satisfying cake.
