Review

Pete Seeger is a national treasure, a living American institution. Unfortunately in our fast-paced world we often forget about our treasures, our institutions, and our heritage. This wonderful collection, culled from his massive library of work with Folkways Records, is, if nothing else, a reminder of how much Pete Seeger means to America. Seeger sang for the people and their rights at a time when that could get rabble-rousers blacklisted and worse. What's more, he got the people singing for themselves. You'll know many of these songs--the title track, "Where Have All the Flowers Gone," "Turn, Turn, Turn"--you just might not know them in their original voice. If I Had a Hammer will set that straight. --Michael Ruby For over 50 years Pete Seeger's music has included songs on labor, civil rights, peace, and the hope for a better world. This CD contains 24 tracks selected from hundreds released on Folkways Records in the late 1950s and 1960s and 2 new songs recorded especially for this collection. Pete plays the 5-string banjo and the 12-string guitar, and appears on some tracks with Almanac Singers and his grandson Tao Rodriguez. Booklet contains detailed notes by Mark Greenberg and a complete discography of Pete Seeger on Folkways. 71 minutes.
