I got the album Strangers and Cousins in the 60's and of all the 40 odd recordings I have of Pete's the Song "Oh Had I a Golden Thread" isafavourite. I also strongly believe the version on that record is the best ever. My name is Ben Perkins(Aust. NZ Queenstown now) and I love Pete Seeger with all my heart.On this album Pete's rendition of Masters of War is so stupendous it deserves a monument. turn the lights out, pump up the volume and be transfixed by the power. Your the best ever Pete.
I agree, I can't get enough of Pete Seeger, literally!! When I "search" fpr Pete Seeger I can only find a few videos. Any suggestions on how to find more videos of him recording? I also thank you for these old shows you posted.
Don't forget us, wherever you go. Thanks.

I never missed an episode of Rainbow Quest when I lived outside Boston in 1967-8.

Was this show canceled because Pete Seeger got blacklisted as a communist or something?

Whoever canceled this show was out of their minds. I could watch this all day!

"What'd he mean by that, back in 1958, Bob?"
"That people all over the world should show their true colors, and get to know each other. Lotsa verses."
