There's a petition on the web to urge the Nobel committee to select Pete Seeger for the Nobel Peace Prize. The honor is one he deserves, and is long overdue. I signed the petition, and hope you will too. Search for it on Google.
This just goes to show how good Pete Seeger is. An old man wrapped up from the cold his voice breaking and its fucking magic real deep I don't think I've seen anyone play with the meaning and emotion and love `Seeger has for music and the power of music.
It is incredible...how powerful he is..How powerful music and words of truth can scare the worst of dictators and presidents. There will never be a man who will replace him. Hes my vote for Nobel Peace Prize-
the Nobel Piece Prize, yes that would be something, I read that there was a campaign in Sweden (or Norway?) to propose him for the alternative Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, unfortunately it seems it didn't work.
Quite Early Morning! I love this song! You know, this is a Woody Guthrie song, for those of you who don't know, and I've been lookin' for it up and down but nowhere to be found. But here it is, unmarked! Sadly, though, the only versions I've heard are with Pete or Arlo. Well, I ain't complaining; I've got a new favorite. C=
Say, you're right! I always thought it was a Woody tune coz Pete states on the live album Together in Concert that he taught him the song (Lonesome Valley) it was based on and that he could never tell which lyrics were Woody's and which were the originals. Thanks for correcting me, though! No wonder I could never find it...
This was the greatest true folkmusician. He lived his folk.

Not a Woody Guthrie song. Pete wrote it.

its amazing how a tied frail voice can have so much power and sadness

The frailness of the voice makes it that much more powerful. My God that was beautiful.
