Farewell Pete Seeger
Folk Singer
1919-2014
Pete Seeger became the most influential folk artist in America. He was instrumental in popularizing both the five-string banjo and the songs of populist America that could be played on it. Seeger's songs such as "If I Had a Hammer," "We Shall Overcome," and "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" served as anthems in the protests of the late 1960s.
