Mary is the debut solo album by Mary Travers of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was the most successful of the five solo albums she recorded between 1971 and 1978.
The album was released on CD for the first time in 2008 as part of the "Solo Recordings" three-CD set released by Rhino Entertainment and sold exclusively at Barnes & Noble. The three-CD set contains the self-titled debut solo albums of all the three members of the group.
Reception
Sounds gave the album a resoundingly positive review, praising the warmth and variety of Travers's vocals, applauding the choice of Lee Holdridge as the arranger and conductor, and saying that the songs "are all natural reflections of Mary's outlook on life, love and herself and are handled by everyone connected with the album with delicacy and feeling."
