Mary Travers, of Peter, Paul and Mary fame has died from Leukemia at the age of 72. Best known Songs "Leaving On A Jet Plane" (Just played on BBC Radio 2) and "Puff The Magic Dragon" (overtly a Children's Song with some not so hidden psychedelic drug overtones) and the iconic "If I had a hammer". | ||
