+DjMountainMan22 To clarify, the lyrics were indeed based on Leonard Lipton's poem, but Peter Yarrow wrote the music and adapted/added lyrics. They each get 50% of the royalties.

I love Peter, Paul and Mary---but The Seekers are in a class by themselves!

What a great song, nod I love The Seekers' adaptation. Bravissimo!

Loved this my whole life and never knew PPM did not write it. The lyrics for "Puff, the Magic Dragon" were based on a 1959 poem by Leonard Lipton, a 19-year-old Cornell University student.[1] Lipton was inspired by an Ogden Nash poem titled "Custard the Dragon", about a "realio, trulio little pet dragon."

Did they record any other sings in which each of them had a solo?

@iowa61 Ah, well that makes sense. Thank you for clarifying that for me.

@MarvelettesDude2 They did not. It was of course a Peter Paul and Mary song. Judith explains it "wouldn't be right" for the Seekers to record it anymore than asking PPM to do "Georgy Girl." But it seems they succumbed to popular demand. And the result is this wonderful gem...

Did they make a recording of this song back in the day? Or was this just something did in the later days? Do you know?
