I know he was involved in a sex scandal in 1970 but nonetheless he deserves to RIP.

I think it’s ok to enjoy the music.

That's a fair enough comment ...... although I read that your President officially pardoned him.

I believe it was more a political favor by Carter after pressure from some politicians that Yarrow previously had campaigned for. It wasn't like he was wrongly convicted. Yarrow himself even admitted it was a terrible thing he did.
