JUDY COLLINS, Kingston Trio, Mary Travers - "All My LIfe's A Circle" 1982 

EVERYBODY WHO'S ANYBODY IN FOLK, THE 60'S MY FAVORITE PART OF LIFE

Unbelievable group from my past... thank you for this share. It touched a place in my heart that was long forgotten. 🎼🖤

This has me crying tears of joy. Sweet memories for an old hippie.

2023: the musicians age and pass on, but the beauty of their music lives forever

That was fantastic! A great collection of truly marvelous voices to help us remember one of Harry Chapin's greats. Don't try to tell me you didn't sing along, because I know you did!!!

Damn lucky Tom Paxton. He had his arms around Mary Travers and Judy Collins!

Thank you SOOOOO much for this! What a gathering of talent in one place! How great to see Glenn Yarbrough, Alex Hassilev, and Lou Gottlieb or the Limeliters, the Kingstons, three of the original Brothers Four, and Judy Blue Eyes all at once.What memories!

Loved. All that talent singing such a wonderful son. Kind of like a baby-boomer dream . I'm always so happy when someone post these gems.

Wow! What a TREAT! There is just nothing better to soothe a troubled heart with than some kind hearted folk music with more stars than the Milky Way.

At age 83, this best describes life. I have been fortunate to see all of our children graduate from high school and college, get married and see eight grandchildren. My father died young of a heart attack and never saw these joys.

Judy Collins, Mary Travers, so many more! Love this video, thanks for posting. To me, the very best part was when Glenn Yarbrough came on and sang a verse. His voice always carries me away.

The two most outstanding singing voices in this remarkable group of talented people are undoubtedly Judy Collins and Glen Yarborough.

All of these singers were/are my favorites, Mary Travers, Judy Collins, Glen Yarborough. Just wonderful memories.

Wow, I would love to have been at that concert! What an amazing group of musicians paying tribute to one of the greatest singer songwriter and humanitarians of our time! We miss you Harry but are better for your having been here!

I wish I could like this video more than once, it is beyond heavenly, it is perfection.

Harry Chapin was only with us for a brief time, but his influence was immense...as was his joy.

I think the audience clapping wiped out Mary Travers wonderful, unique contribution to this great song.

RIP John Stewart, Bob Shane, Roger Gambill, Dave Guard (Kingston Trio), Phil Austin & Peter Bergman (Firesign Theatre), Lou Gottlieb & Glenn Yarbrough (Limeliters), Mary Travers & others who may have passed on.

Also, notice the thrill in the audience when Mary Travers comes in, sweet and charismatic Mary from Peter, Paul & Mary. This clip made my day.

THAT'S how to sing the song!! Harry would approve!!

Watching this program always saddens me for the lost of Mary Travers and Bob Shane they were and have always been my favorites (so was Phil Everly!), beautiful reunion.

What a joy! Now in my eighties, this brought such a smile to my face. The music of my era! The music of my story!

My goodness. Such wonderful memories this brings to mind to this old (77) lady!

Harry Chapiin was a master at putting words to feelings!

Now that's what I call a super-group!

Back when music made you happy deep in your soul.

Lovely gathering, a happy time but my heart sinks every time i watch this concert as three of our favorites have left us; Mary, Bob and the other trio, forgot his name (one of my favorites). Wonderful hearing such beautiful repertoire but sad and nostalgic at the same time. miss miss them!

Judy Collins voice - amazing. Love it.

i think i,m going to play this one over and over again...........

In 1957 I was in love with the music of the Kingston Trio! Was over joyed to find them again in The Villages, Fl. Took me right back 60 years ago when I was young and yet to find love.

This is fantastic! Never heard this song and the lyrics are incredible! Is there more footage from this concert?

2022..world in chaos am in tears wonderful this uk

I am smiling non stop and dedicating this song to my Daddy who passed over in 1991. He taught my little sister and i to sing harmony to the kingston trio and peter paul and mary and so many more. We learned all the great ballads and folk songs then and they are still my favorite to this day.. in 2023. I am his oldest daughter Isabel, i just turned 63. For God's purpose i am the last living Thomas in our family. But in my heart i know they are all with me as i complete my own journey. I love u all and my angels carry to you my prayers, wishes and songs. ....So.... Daddy would sing softly "Scarlet ribbons" to us,* my little sister Karen i* as a lullaby each night at bed time. So glad i could still find it.

rip mary travers and harry chapin great

“All my life’s a circle.” Oh, wow. Except for Judy and Mary, I didn’t recognize the faces. But once they started, I’ll NEVER forget the voices and the memories of yesteryear just came flooding back. Absolutely outstanding. We’ll never have anything like this again.

The beautiful voice of Glenn Yarbrough brought me here ~ RIP Glenn

Folk music has power.

It seems like I've been here before, I can't remember when But I got this funny feelin' that I'll be back once again

Thanks for one of my all time favorite songs Harry! From the Cheap Seats! Your concerts will always live on,

Some heavy hitters here. All superstars of the folk world. Wow!

Such a great songwriter and wonderful song. The performance is superb, but am I the only one that was put off a bit by the audience applauding a bit beyond "normal" etiquette, Mary Travers was drowned out at the beginning :-(

Fantastic those were the days.

Hearing Mary singing this just melted me.

As a musician in my younger days I can assure you that the greatest tribute of respect a fallen musical artist could ever have is when a group of colleagues & peers gather to lay down your music. Thank you Harry for everything you gave this crummy world. I had never heard this song until now. Every single word fits my own crummy life. Godspeed.

Great group of singers.. a shame ole Harry Chapin wasn't around to be with them. Wish a description of the event was included. I too would like to have dvd of it. But thanks a lot for posting.

Wow! So looking forward to seeing 1,000,000 views of this epic group singing Harry Chapin's song. I just love it , as did the appreciative audience.

Beautiful song and so poingnant no matter what era you aspire to sad that our favourites have to leave us as we will also one day but so happy to have lived through their beauty and carry that with us always.

WOW - awesomeness ! R.I.P. Harry Chapin- Happy 73rd Birthday today - what a joy you have been in my life and still are !

I remember this event and now that I'm older, it means more to me. 🙂

I still miss Mary so very much. This clip is fantastic. It was great to hear all these greats like Glen Yarbourough, Judy Collins and, of course, the great Mary Travers.

Mary Travers brought so much joy to millions around the globe. What a voice. What compassion for life and beauty and music. We will miss her but thank the Lord we have her music.

A who's who of 70's folk music. A wonderful treat. Thanks to whoever posted it.

Glen Yarborough just passed away a couple of days ago at age 86. What a beautiful voice the World lost that day!

This gathering is so wonderful....Judy Collins is my favorite..

great song performed by some great performers--written by an amazing guy named Harry Chapin

Thanks so much for this - I followed all of them and filled my room with vinal!

Such loving ambiance then,.....lovely!

What a collection of singing talent !

Wondeful song ! Thank you my friend !

The Limeston Four and Mary! Yeah, MAN!

I'm just discovering this song and I love it. All my favorite singers from the 60's!

I just chanced across this video today and was moved by it. All my musical heroes from my youth, my earliest musical inspirations. I was lucky enough to see some of them live....Tom Paxton, Mary Travers, Bob Gibson (who was not in this show), the Kingston Trio 1981 version.

Just one more legendary concert produced by the one & only Irving Steinbloom

Fantastic! It's a beautiful ending of the showtime. this is one of the best American songs forever. Have a good night!

Fresh load of goosebumps from these fantastic people!

There will be such a beloved ensemble like this again. The only two that I recognized on-sight were Mary Travers and Judy Collins. All rest got names, with a dropped jaw and an Oh!, as soon as I heard their voices. Just outstanding. Thank you very much!

So much talent in one room!

Music is LIFE! Beautiful

It is wonderful. He is Dick even if it calls it the Kingston trio. Although it is only Reynolds, it is co-starring with the brothers four. An image is seen for the first time. Video of TV program by which bob Dylan co-starred with B4 was up(ed) by you tube. Around 1960 is American. I think the time of fork music being the highest.

Great version. also love The New Seekers version which was a big hit in Europe back in 72

Does Tom Paxton have his arms around Mary Travers and Judy Collins at the same time? What the ...

Good lord this is beautiful

Forty years have passed since this concert was performed. Has it really been that long? Seems like just yesterday. Years gone by and with them the aspirations of our youth.

WHAT WONDERFUL SONGS, WHAT WONDERFUL TIMES.

Haven't seen this much talent all at once on stage since!

Love to know the name of the concert

Fantastic! It's a beautiful ending of the showtime. this is one of the best American songs forever. Have a good night!

You know this was the inspiration for the final concert of the movie Mighty Wind...Live and Love them both....

Entering between Glenn Yarbrough & Judy Collins are Philip Proctor, Phil Austin & Peter Bergman of the Firesign Theatre! (Phil & Peter have passed as well as several of the other singers).

Holy Mackerel.

Glenn Yarbrough!

memories memories all beatifull what a great gathering of talent

A great song, which was used (here in Australia), as a backdrop to the disaster of the Munich Olympics in 1972.

Wow! I wish I could have attended this show! It was shortly after Harry Chapin died (one of the saddest days of my life) as and it was love,y of them to pay tribute. Does a tone know if the full show is available on RU-vid?

Oh, to have been there in person...

A great tribute to Harry Chapin.

Just realised that Bob Haworth who's in the Brothers Four in this video (guy with the beard playing banjo) later joins the kingston trio in the early 2000s. I just found that cool :D

thanks for sharing this! This was one of my dad's favorite songs. Today is his birthday. He passed 12 years ago... Great to hear this song!

Does anybody know if the whole concert is on RU-vid somewhere ?! Would love to see this !

Toppers

Mágico !!!! .-All my life's a circle, sunrise and sundown Moon rolls through the night-time till the daybreak comes around All my life's a circle I can't tell you why Seasons spinning round again, the years keep rolling by Seems like I've been here before, and I well remember when I've got a funny feeling that we'll all be together again No straight lines make up my life, all my roads are bends There's no clear-cut beginning and so far no dead ends I've found you a thousand times, I know you've done the same Then we lose each other, it's like a children's game If I find you here again the thought comes through my mind Life is like a circle, let's go round one more time

Thank you to the dear friend who pointed me to this. We sang it at her and her husband's wedding in '80 or '81.

I can listen to Glenn and ms. Judy over and over again all day long. God bless them

Hear the harmony, see the past....thankfully it will roll through ages just like the song

Glen Yarbrough. Songs

I remember this song from when I was fourteen years of age, living in Germany with my c mother and father.I actually heard it on one of the German radio stations, rather than the Armed Forces Network.

Damn Glen Yarborough and Judy Collings and Mary. Wow

This is really something !

All I can say is...groovy!

A wonderful tribute to Harry !
