Review

Q (9/02, p.128) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Seeger's reedy voice and banjo pluckings may have been rudimentary, but his belief in the power of song...is always moving..."

Title Note

Personnel includes: Pete Seeger (vocals, acoustic guitar, banjo).

Producer: John Hammond.

Compialtion producer: Lawrence Cohn.

Recorded between April 28, 1962 and March 22, 1967. Includes liner notes by Pete Seeger and Arthur Levy.

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

As a solo performer and with his band the Weavers, Pete Seeger had many big hits from the late '40s through the early '60s, by which time he was attracting more attention for his social activism than he was for his music. The 12-track GREATEST HITS collects Seeger's most popular tunes, and in so doing emphasizes his musical strengths over his political beliefs, though there's undeniable social commentary to be found in the suburbia satire "Little Boxes," the anti-war ballad "Where Have All the Flowers Gone," and the union anthem "Which Side Are You On." Other highlights include the original versions of "Turn! Turn! Turn!" and "The Bells of Rhymney," both later popularized by the Byrds, and "Wimoweh," which the Tokens later adapted into the pop hit "The Lion Sleeps Tonight."
