Free Music Notes for We Shall Overcome: Complete Carnegie Hall Concert
Free Music Review: Not _Quite_ Uncut
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great recording, but it should be noted that "Wimoweh", which is on the original Columbia Records LP, is not present here, presumably because of the immensely complicated issues surrounding the copyright of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight". This is a mild disappointment, since it would have been nice to hear Pete teaching the song to the audience, something rarely heard in recordings.
Free Music Review: Time Capsule
Hit: 5 Stars
This is really an enjoyable CD. He covers a lot of traditional and current (in 1963) folk songs. The remastering is gorgeous and the audience actually sings in perfect harmony. However, it is a product of its time. I actually find this to be a plus, as it gives great insight into the coming unrest of the late sixties. Musical and historical, without being too "heavy".Free Music Review: The album is amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
Listening to the songs as a child, and now hearing them again as an adult makes you want to listen to him over and over again. This album thrives on audience participation, and does not take away from Pete Seeger's brilliant performance. All visuals of Carnegie Hall become present day. This double set CD is truly a gem.
Free Music Review: Still Singing
Hit: 5 Stars
I've attended Pete's concerts for over 50 years. When you see him you sing. When you hear him you sing along, not necessarily well, but with fervor. This has always been a part of his concerts and this one is no different. What a joy to listen and sing. It is a timeless thrill and experience.
Free Music Review: inspirational music
Hit: 5 Stars
I love this cd - the music is full of passion and inspiration. Pete has a beautiful, relaxed presence when he performs. This cd is a treasure that I will enjoy often.
