Today, May 3 2009, is Pete Seeger’s 90th birthday. I can’t make the big concert at Madison Square Garden to celebrate it, so this is my small tribute to him, an amazing man with an amazing wife, and an amazing life. This was performed at the “We Are One“ Presidential Inaugural Concert, January 19, 2009.
The song was written by Woodie Guthrie in 1940, first recorded by him in 1944 at Folkway Records, but not released until 1951.
RIP Pete Seeger May 3, 1919 -- January 27, 2014, Toshi Seeger July 1, 1922 -- July 9, 2013
Discussion, pro and anti Seeger, this song, government, whatever, etc is allowed. However, exceedingly vulgar or hateful comments, and obvious trolling with no reasonable intellectual value, will be deleted.
