  1. Looking a little into the song, Mary Don't You Weep, I found the Silvertone's version at YouTube: https://youtu.be/d4hdWcxa0lQ.

    The listeners' comments are interesting, including that, this version anyway, is where the Simon & Garfunkel songs "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" and "Love Me Like a Rock" took root.
