[allenshepard]

Do I agree with pete seeger and the weavers old politics yes I do very much so but it shouldn't matter anyways Pete and the rest were great musicians and they should be looked at other then their politics

[allenshepard]

Elizabeth cotten was 92 when she died and theres a tape of her on here playing I think it was in the mid 1970s or late

[MrMindia1]

[afernicker]

Another clasic Dont make them any more.

[gwardii]

in Poland,most people use word "komuna" which is not the same as "komunizm"

[gwardii]

Many people,especially right-wing supporters, called this system communism,but they are wrong.i styudied law,and noone from my professores,which well know theory of politic,law and history, called polish system before 1989 communism

[edgeyp12]

Who cares if he was a communist- there's nothing wrong with that. Long live Pete Seeger.

[mmasny]

yeah where ya from, us huh?

[edgeyp12]

Yeah, NY.

[mmasny]

and you probably never been to russia poland hungary or china right?

[Rattachatrat]

Should the ideals of communism be based on the limits that a totalitarian regime put on them? I don't agree with that, what if every capitalist system were to be judged on the U.S. government? Lobbyists and special interest groups should not run our government. Perhaps we should call this a deMOCKracy?

[mmasny]

I am not about to start a discussion with you. but I recommend that you read some marx and then wonder a lil bit if communism may be different then it was.

[gwardii]

i live in Poloand and i know that in Poland was no communism:).just read Marks books:)

[mmasny]

@gwardii yeah. i read marx. and there was communism in Poland. sure it wasn't marx's communism. but it's called communism now and you cant do anything about it.

[gwardii]

in Poland,was was a hybryde system,came from soviet union which destroy the ideas of comunism.all not soviet block commies were opponents of russian version of communism.

[GDguitarplayer]

Wow that's Arlo Guthrie in the background there too! Love ol' Pete Seeger commie or not...LOL (I know he wasnt) :)

[inkyej]

What a joy to have found this! This was one of my favorite songs.

[Phantomsbreath]

I remember this when I was a kid. Had a tape with this song on it. I think this is the same performance. Right down to the preamble.
