In honor of Pete Seeger's 90th birthday (May 3rd), Folk Alley has put together a 5 hour side stream of memorable Seeger classics covered by artists like Tom Paxton, Bruce Cockburn, Janis Ian, Bruce Springsteen, Natalie Merchant, Greg Brown, and, of course, the iconic troubadour himself.

Listen to the stream and leave Pete a birthday greeting here.

(Thanks to Jim Musselman at Appleseed Recordings and everyone at Smithsonian Folkways Recordings for supporting this stream!)


To add to the celebration, we'd like to share a special video of John Gorka performing "The Water is Wide," recorded in the Folk Alley studios.

I clicked on the link but the Pete Seeger stream didn't come up. Any ideas why?
