Free Music Notes for Pete Seeger's Greatest Hits
Free Music Review: Rediscovering an old friend
Hit: 5 Stars
For years I've been listening to other people recording songs that Pete has been doing for years. To hear him doing the originals again, and knowing the efforts he put into doing good for this country is - well - good for the soul. His voice is true and flexible, and the music just plain makes you feel young again.Free Music Review: A Grateful Nation Thanks You

With all the hubbub about Bruce Springsteen's latest CD (a worthy purchase I might add) I thought I'd also send a kind note thanking Pete Seeger. Being a child of the '60's I saw Pete Seeger more times than I can count at every protest rally, do-gooder function, event celebrating freedom of speech, protesting war, injustice, violence, pollution, environmental issues, human decency, and down right good neighborliness. Always wearing a well-worn paisley cotton shirt, rolled up sleeves, cordoroy cap, and lived in jeans. If we have a troubador in this lifetime, Pete's it. His heart and soul is in his music. It's also in the right place. Listening to Pete Seeger can't help us to be better human beings. This is as good a place to start. He's as close to Woodie Guthrie as we're going to get in this century. Cherish him. Free Music Review: Pete Seeger's Greatest Hits Review

The CD is OK. I bought it mainly for "Waist deep in the Big Muddy" since I am constantly reminded of the tune with the present situation in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, I have to agree with Pete Seeger on what are considered "Greatest Hits". Surely he didn't pick some of them. His repertoire is truly so vast that covers of other people's songs is not needed. It's rare that I enjoy live recordings as well and I skip the filler "Lion Sleeps Tonight" live recording every time because it's barely audible with all the noise at the concert. I'll remember next time to listen to the audio samples more closely before making a choice. Pete Seeger is a national treasure and I have a "Weavers" CD as well. I guess this could be termed a primer for some unfamiliar with his work.Free Music Review: Very Talented Songwriter

I wanted to explore His Work having heard alot about Him.I liked "We Shall Overcome" from Him but the Main Song I wanted to hear was "Where have all the FLowers Gone"? Being a Huge Earth,Wind&Fire Fan I had to hear the Original&His Version is nice.I like His Arrangements&Overall Concepts to Music Making.a really Good Set.Free Music Review: A 'very nice' collection !

If you are willing to try just 1 CD of Pete Seeger to get an idea about his music, listen to this. It has almost all his hits.
I especially loved -
Guantanamera
Little Boxes,
Where have all the flowers gone,
We shall overcome
