    Listening to Pete Seeger is a history of the United States in song. He sings of so many of our thoughts and trials through the years it is as if you were there again. Wouldn't hurt our kids to listen to a history lesson in song.

    All of these songs informed my musical sense and social conscience through my public school's music program. With music programs disappearing from public school systems all over the country, and families having to finance more and more of their children's primary education from their own pockets, buy this album learn all the verses to 'This Land Is Your Land' and teach them to your children. Maybe our children won't have to buy the chalk, pencils and other supplies for their children's classrooms.

    This is as American as it gets and fills you with the true meaning of who we are. Hear this, sing with it, and then try to live up to the ideals this man Pete did and does. Discover who he is and what he did in order to understand what freedom means. This is simply great!
