Pete Seeger At The Village Gate Limited Vinyl 2LP Set
Overview:
This original album was recorded live at the Village Gate in New York City (1960) with Pete Seeger (vocals, banjo), Memphis Slim (piano) and Willie Dixon (bass). The extra musicians allow Seeger to stretch out and play lead on his banjo. The set list consists mostly of traditional folk songs and spirituals, to which, in some cases, Seeger has added words dealing with contemporary political concerns. As usual, Seeger comes off well in a live setting, interacting with his listeners and spurring their own performance. The bonus tracks are from the 1962 album “Memphis Slim & Willie Dixon at The Village Gate”.
