Folk Music
Peter, Paul, & Mary – Long Chain On.
I've always enjoyed some of the more obscure but good non-contorversal folk songs on Side B of those old Peter, Paul and Mary folk albums.
Ride, Ride, Ride By New Christy Minstrels On 1963 Columbia LP.
Let's all sing along with Barry McGuire ...
"A cowboys life is a lonely road
Your back gets bent and your legs get bowed
Riding herd from town to town
Make your bed on cold hard ground."

WAMC had a Labor Day music special on earlier this week. I had never heard this Jim Croce song before, but apparently it was a fairly big hit during the spring of 1974.
Allan Sherman – Hello Muddah Hello Faddah

Apparently Camp Granada isn't that bad of a place after all ...
Peter, Paul & Mary – If I Had A Hammer.
As a kid, I played this song so much that I wore the groove off of my parent's album.
Love me, I’m a liberal

An old Phil Ochs song from an earlier era, not that much has changed.
