Many of the songs were recorded at a concert held in October 2018 in Leverett MA. 4 are songs by Pete Seeger - in part as a celebration of upcoming 100th anniversary of Pete's birth in May 2019. These songs are infused with Charlie and Annie's hope, commitment to justice, and sense of humor.
Track list
The 2nd volume of Appleseed Recording's "Songs of Pete Seeger" series is a singleCD. It includes cuts by Joan Baez, Dar Williams, Jackson Browne, Arlo Guthrie. There is good reason why this CD is our son Nate's favorite of this series: the songs are powerful, fresh and carry deep conviction in the voices of the singers. My personal favorite is "The Emperor Is Naked Today-o" - recorded by Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer not too long before Dave's tragic death.
Pete accompanies himself on this 59 minute CD made up of 22 infectiously fun songs, especially aimed at kids aged 3 to 7. The extensive insert includes song lyrics and directions for the dances or traditional "play party" games that children can do to these songs. The CD received the Early Childhood News Directors' Choice and the Parents' Choice Awards.

The 1st CD of this set is Pete's first recording for over a decade. It captures Pete's voice as it sounds today, with all the "rough edges", passion and commitment for the things he still is saying to the world through his singing at age 84. He sings with his grandson Tao. The 2nd CD has recordings by other artists of Pete's songs, as on Vols 1 & 2.

We love this double cassette/CD, recorded live at Sanders Theatre in Cambridge in 1980. Pete had been frustrated that his live concert recordings mainly picked up his own voice and not the audience's, so he asked Folkways to mike the audience for this record. You get a wonderful feeling of actually being at a Seeger concert, hearing him teach songs, banter with the audience, hearing the audience learning the songs and the rising harmonies as they join in with Pete.
includes 3 wonderful Seeger children's CDs: "Birds Beasts Bugs & Fishes", "Song & Play Time" & "Abiyoyo". Guaranteed to give a 3-7 year old many hours of pleasure! A $45 value.
