COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Sneak Attack submitted by drouhardte on June 16, 2012, 10:49am This is one of the albums I pull out if a gathering is preemptively losing steam. Within the first few seconds people are tapping their toes, slapping their hands on their knees, feeling reinvigorated and ready for another board game. They're great songs if you want message, they're great songs if you just want a song, they're done in a great way, and they won't leave your head anytime soon.
A Revelation!

Loads of familiar songs done with great feeling and style by great musicians.
I liked Tom Joad but was blown away by this collection Seeger traditionalist
songs with great arrangements by the Boss and friends. The DVD was great too!
Great CD submitted by teri on July 8, 2023, 11:33am Seeger's wonderful music revamped by another musician. Seeger would be proud!
