Mary Travers has said she was influenced by Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and the Weavers. In the documentary Peter, Paul & Mary: Carry It On — A Musical Legacy members of the Weavers discuss how Peter, Paul and Mary took over the torch of the social commentary of folk music in the 1960s.
Manager Albert Grossman created Peter, Paul and Mary in 1961, after auditioning several singers in the New York folk scene. After rehearsing them out of town in Boston and Miami, Grossman booked them into The Bitter End, a coffee house, nightclub and popular folk music venue in New York City's Greenwich Village.
They recorded their first self-titled debut album, Peter, Paul and Mary, the following year. It included "Lemon Tree", "500 Miles", and the Pete Seeger hit tunes "If I Had a Hammer" (subtitled "The Hammer Song") and "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?". The album was listed in the Billboard Magazine Top Ten for 10 months, including seven weeks in the #1 position. It remained a main catalog-seller for decades to come, eventually selling over two million copies, earning Double Platinum certification from the RIAA in the United States alone.

Lyrics:
When the whale get strike and the line runs out And the whale makes a flounder with its tail And the boat capsized and I lost my darlin' man No more, no more Greenland for you, brave boys No more, no more Greenland for you
Twas in eighteen hundred and fifty three On June the thirteenth day That our gallant ship her anchor weighed And for Greenland sailed away, brave boys For Greenland sailed away
The lookout on the cross tree stood With a spyglass in his hand There's a whale, there's a whale, there's a whale fish, he cried And she blows at every span, brave boys She blows at every span
Well we struck and whale and the line played out But she gave a flounder with her tail And the boat capsized and four men were drowned [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/greenland-whale-fisheries-lyrics-peter-paul-mary.html ] And we never caught that whale We never caught that whale
Oh, to lose that whale, my captain cried It grieves my heart full sore But to lose four of my gallant men It grieves me ten times more, brave boys It grieves me ten times more
Oh, Greenland is a dreadful place It's a land that's never green Where there's ice and snow and the whale fishes blow And daylight's seldom seen, brave boys And daylight's seldom seen
When the whale gets strike and the line runs out And the whale makes a flounder with its tail And the boat capsized and I lost my darlin' man No more, no more Greenland for you, brave boys No more, no more Greenland for you
