Piece Description
One-hour music intensive radio special details how Bruce Springsteen was inspired by Pete Seeger's musical legacy while recording his latest album, We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions. We Shall Overcome features many of the folk songs made famous by Pete Seeger, including the title track and "Eyes on the Prize," that helped define America's civil rights movement. Springsteen's new interpretations remind us how these songs can be both fun and give a definitive statement as to who we are as Americans right now. Bruce Springsteen, Pete Seeger, rock critic Dave Marsh, and Seeger Sessions Band members Larry Eagle and Charlie Giordano discuss the power and history of Seeger's music, and the songs recorded for We Shall Overcome. This program also introduces two new recordings by Springsteen with the Seeger Sessions Band - Pete Seeger?s anti-war anthem "Bring 'em Home" and Blind Alfred Reed?s "How Can a Poor Man Stand Such Times and Live" with new verses written by Springsteen. Both songs have been highlights of Bruce?s current tour.

Review of Bruce Springsteen: The Seeger Sessions
I had a happy time making supper while listening to this pleasing hour, perfect for a Sunday evening, which it happened to be. Always inspiring to hear Pete Seeger's clarity and heart, music critic Dave Marsh provides incisive insight into Springsteen's approach, and Springsteen is his usual soulful straightforward self. And then there's the music. Seeger, Springsteen, swinging!
