"Album 1700", the 1967 release from Peter, Paul & Mary, produced the band's greatest and final hit — "Leaving On A Jet Plane" (a John Denver-penned composition). The album peaked at #15 on Billboard Magazine's Top LP chart and was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Folk Performance category. The album was so named because its original LP issue was Warner Bros. Records catalog #WB-1700. The cover is styled after one of the promotional photographs for the movie Bonnie and Clyde that showed the gang holding machine guns.
