SOURCE/PRECEDENT/CONTEMPORARY RECORDINGS

2. Peter, Paul and Mary's cover of Blowin' In the Wind released xxx 1963, reaches #xx on record charts.

COMMENTS
1. Highly productive recording sessions with 23 tracks eventually released.
2. In contrast with first album, this record is dominated by original compositions and a lighter, more youthful tone - implied in  the title .
3. The album has a strong sense of fun and humour, made more personal/imtimate by the use of asides and spoken introductions, first used on Baby, Let Me Follow You Down. #1.
4. Session musicians only appear on Corrina, Corrina, although incorrectly credited on the cover.
5. John Hammond, the original producer of the first album was replaced for the last session with Tom Wilson.
6. Bruce Langhorne had previously recorded with Bob Dylan in September 1961 on Carolyn Hester's first album.
