Where Have All the Flowers Gone: The Songs of Pete Seeger, Vol. 1

This landmark 2-CD set has been a major folk best-seller around the world. Jim Musselman had a vision 10 years ago to ask major recordings artists to record songs that Pete Seeger had written as a tribute to Pete's huge contribution to American political life and musical culture. The result was stunning. It helped to launch Appleseed Recordings as the premier label for progressive folk music today.
35 songs in all!

$25 for double CD
