Boutoutaluck, I remember them well. I loved their music and have some on one of my MP3 players, "Remember "Where Have All The Flowers Gone," "If I Had A Hammer" and others. Lovely music.
We have an advantage here in Blue Hill, Maine. Noel (Paul) Stookey lives here and frequently gives local performances to benefit some local organization.
We lived in Newport RI for ten years and were privileged to see them perform at a local pub. I asked my husband today if we ever saw them and he said "no"........ But "I" remember and probably one day he will have one of those moments when he remembers too - at that moment.
Yes, I loved them too.........So glad we can still see them on PBS.
Marsh......I recall seeing "Paul" doing many benefits when my son was attending Deerfield Academy. I believe his wife taught at Northfield Mount Herman and he often was a "guest" teacher.
PUFF was one of the first songs I remember singing....
2005 has been a ‘transitional year’ in the life of Noel Paul Stookey. He and Betty, his wife of over 42 years and former chaplain of the Northfield Mt. Hermon prep school in western Massachusetts, are in the process of returning to Blue Hill. It is the small town on the coast of Maine where they settled 30 years ago to raise their three daughters Liz, Anna and Kate. Following a move into a new house on the old property, the couple looks forward to spending part of the following spring as chaplain/artist in residence at the Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C. “The world is such a small place now. It seems as though we live in each other’s back pockets; or at least in each other’s cyberspace”, Stookey suggests
