Late Again is the eighth studio album by folk trio, Peter, Paul and Mary and reached #14 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums Chart.

The same week that this album was released, group members Mary Travers and Peter Yarrow were part of an anti-war demonstration in Grant Park during the late August Democratic National Convention in Chicago, IL. The two were among demonstrators who were beaten and teargassed; this made newsreels across the country.[2]

Late Again featured one Billboard Magazine Hot 100 single, "Too Much of Nothing" which was written by Bob Dylan.[3] This album continued the group's transitioning sound, continuing to build a slight "Beatles-influenced" edge into their recordings.[4]
