Our Take

Pete Seeger's Singalong at Sanders Theater in 1987 is a prime example of the eclectic folk legend at the peak of his powers. Combining his trademark banjo skills with rousing singalong anthems, Seeger effortlessly transforms the historic venue into a foot-stomping, hand-clapping extravaganza.

From the moment Seeger takes the stage, the audience is entranced by his charismatic presence and infectious passion for social justice. The setlist is a mix of classics like "We Shall Overcome" and "If I Had a Hammer," alongside lesser-known gems that showcase Seeger's versatility as a musician and storyteller.

The energy in the room is electric, with audience members of all ages joining in the chorus and swaying to the music. Seeger's ability to connect with his listeners is truly a sight to behold, as he effortlessly transitions from heartfelt ballads to spirited protest songs with ease.

At 198 minutes long, Singalong at Sanders Theater is a marathon of musical bliss that never once feels tedious or overstays its welcome. Seeger's timeless message of love, unity and activism resonates just as strongly today as it did over three decades ago, making this live album a must-listen for fans old and new.

In conclusion, Pete Seeger's Singalong at Sanders Theater in 1987 is a masterclass in folk music performance that solidifies his status as a true icon of the genre. So grab your banjo, gather your friends, and get ready to sing your heart out with one of the all-time greats.

About the artist

Pete Seeger

Pete Seeger, the legendary folk musician and social activist, is a name that needs no introduction. With a career spanning over seven decades, Seeger is a true icon of American music. From folk anthems like "Where Have All the Flowers Gone" to protest songs like "We Shall Overcome," Seeger's music has not only entertained but also inspired generations of listeners. Born in 1919 in New York City, Seeger was immersed in music from a young age, thanks to his parents' passion for folk music. He learned to play the banjo and guitar, and by the time he was in his twenties, he was already making a name for himself in the music scene. But it wasn't just Seeger's musical talent that set him apart - it was his unwavering commitment to using his music as a tool for social change. He was a vocal supporter of civil rights, environmental conservation, and peace activism, and his songs often reflected his political beliefs. Seeger's influence on the folk music scene cannot be overstated. He was a founding member of the influential group The Weavers, and his solo career was equally impressive. His music touched the hearts of people around the world, and his legacy continues to inspire musicians to this day. In 2009, at the age of 90, Seeger performed at President Barack Obama's inauguration, proving that age is no barrier to making great music. Pete Seeger may no longer be with us, but his music lives on, a testament to the power of song to change the world.
