MARY TRAVERS – “Follow Me” (1971)

Beautiful song written by John Denver. Mary Travers sang it in her inimitable style and produced the hit single that received airplay. Another example of folk music that is blatantly absent from oldies radio.

Mary Travers passed away on September 16, 2009. May this beautiful soul rest in peace.
