Description
WITH THE RECENT PASSING OF PETE SEEGER'S IT IS APPROPRIATE TO OFFER THIS VERY RARE RECORDING OF THE FIRST JOINING OF MR. SEEGER AND "THE WEAVERS" FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME AT THE HISTORICAL MEETING IN PEEKSKILL, NY ON AUGUST 27, 1949. ALSO ON THIS RECORDING IS THE BOOMING VOICE OF PAUL ROBESON LENDING HIS TALENT FOR THE FIGHT FOR A PROGRESSIVE WITH MANY OTHER PROGRESSIVE WARRIORS SUCH AS HOWARD FAST. THE PIONEER SEEGER AND THE WEAVERS ARE PROBABLY THE MOST FAMILIAR VOICES OF FOLK MUSIC IN AMERICA AND THIS IS THE VERY FIRST RECORDING OF THEIR GETTING TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME. THIS IS A RARE AND HARDLY EVER ENCOUNTERED RECORDING OF AN AMERICAN INSTITUTION ..... AND A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN IT!
