The folk pioneer known for classics such as “If I Had a Hammer” and “Where Have All the Flowers Gone,” offers here songs old and new performed with a chorus of chums. Seeger introduces many songs with a story, telling of its creation; songs range from rewriting classics by Beethoven and Bach to rerecording some of his own best-loved melodies. At 89 shows that while Seeger’s voice has weathered, his tunes remain timeless. While many of his contemporaries are now starring in the great gig in the sky, the octogenarian is still blessing the earth with songs of hope and happiness.
