well, madi diaz is a badass. you should check her voice and her songs out
if you like good music. please don’t judge and condemn so quickly when you
don’t know full details of a particular performance. seriously, does this
look like a regular band? no, it’s from an awards ceremony, so there was

love love love madi diaz!

you guys are such wieners.

Great to see, I wondered if JD would get mentioned since Milt Okun was

Peter, Paul and Mary.John Denver.
Apparently,John Denver could have left Cherry Lane for other,bigger

been there at the start and he owed them his support.Milt & JD were a match
made in heaven.:-)
Very poor version….but nice to see continued interest in the song after
so many years.
Thank you!
