Peter, Paul and Mary Comeback Tour

Peter, Paul and Mary formed in 1961 in New York city. They were Peter Yarrow and Noel Paul Stookey on Guitars and Vocals and Mary Travers on Vocals. The group quickly rose to fame singing covers of folk songs of Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, Gordon Lightfoot,Ewan McColl and John Denver amongst others. They played consistent performances throughout the 1960s and released Three Top Ten Albums and a string of Hit singles between 1961 and 1970.

However, the group members decided to go their own ways in 1970 to pursue solo careers. However, this didn’t go too well to start with for Peter Yarrow. He was convicted that same year of molesting a 14 year. Old girl.

However, he was admonished in 1977 and was granted a Presidential Pardon in 1978. This is when the group decided to get back together for a comeback tour. This is their San Francisco show from that tour while they were over on the West Coast in 1979.
