If I Had a Hammer, 500 Miles, Leaving On a Jet Plane were my favorites.

For some reason, I used to confuse them with The Mamas & The Papas.

They did a version of "I Dig Rock and Roll Music." That may have created the confusion.

I remember we used to sing their songs during protest demonstrations and sit-ins - Blowin' In The Wind was a standard.

OMG, Sylvia... Blowin' in the Wind was the very first non-JW song that I committed to memory. I love that song, and it still get's to me sometimes, especially when I'm feeling sentimental or melancholy.

I remember my cousin singing it and getting chastised by our grandma.
See, we lived on this man's plantation and she was afraid that cousin would be viewed as an agitator.
