<p>Dragonmom- I just looked, the above CD set, “Around the Campfire” by PPM is available on itunes for 9.99. I just bought the 2CD set “the Very Best of PPM” a few days ago. Will have to compare and maybe purchase a few more individual tracks. It’s funny how it’s the songs from all the years at Girl Scout camp that I still remember ALL the lyrics to!</p>
<p>Thanks for the tip on the music; I will look for it on itunes.</p>
<p>What camp did you go to, CBBBLinker?? That musta been incredible!
I went to a celebration of Pete Seeger’s 90th birthday which occurred simultaneously withehe one held up at the Garden in NY this summer. Brought back so many memories…</p>
<p>I’m not CBBB, but the Girl Scout camps I went to in the late 60s sang the entire PP&M repertoire regularly.</p>
<p>The GS camp in question is Camp Bonnie Brae in the Berkshires (MA). Hence the CBB in my screen name here. And, as an added piece of info, somewhat unrelated to PP&M or Peter Seeger, it’s the oldest continually operated GS camp in the country.</p>
<p>Cool, CBB!</p>
<p>I’m listening to a PPM double concert album my D got at a thrift sale and gave to me this past (Parents) weekend. I had seen them in college eons ago, and twice within the past few years with our daughter. Makes me sad for Mary, and nostalgic for those days. I haven’t talked to anyone of my generation, regardless of politics or religious beliefs, about this loss without their being sad, but smiling at the memories. I must admit I’m not totally into today’s music scene, but is there anyone around now uniting crowds with music and song?</p>
