Ian and Sylvia were a folk and country singing duo from Canada.  In the mid-60’s they were part of the Greenwich Village folk scene that included Bob Dylan, Peter/Paul/Mary, Phil Ochs and many others.  This song “Four Strong Winds” was their first hit. PBS  ran a documentary about that period in music history.

“..but our good times are all gone..”

It was a time of turmoil including the Civil Rights struggles and the Vietnam War.
