Our Take

It's Peggy Seeger's "First Farewell," and let me tell you, this folk legend is proving once again why she's still a force to be reckoned with in the music world. From the moment you press play, you're transported to a world where storytelling reigns supreme, and Seeger's mesmerizing vocals take center stage.

The album kicks off with the hauntingly beautiful track "The Parting Glass," setting the tone for what's to come. Seeger's songwriting is as sharp as ever, with themes of love, loss, and revolution woven throughout each track.

One standout moment is the track "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," where Seeger's emotive delivery sends shivers down your spine. It's a masterclass in vocal storytelling, and a reminder of why she's a true original in the folk music scene.

But it's not all introspective ballads - tracks like "Swim to the Star" and "Gotta Get Home by Midnight" bring a sense of fun and playfulness to the album, showing Seeger's versatility as an artist.

Overall, "First Farewell" is a triumph for Peggy Seeger, a reminder of her enduring talent and influence. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let this album take you on a journey through the highs and lows of life. You won't be disappointed.
