1	The Essential Pete Seeger [Sony] (2005) more music like this by Pete Seeger Pete Seeger is the sort of person who has become the stuff of legend for all the best reasons. As a musicologist, he's been a passionate archivist of folk songs of all sorts from around the world for most of his life, and thousands of people (perhaps millions) would not have heard songs such as "Goodnight Irene," "This Land Is Your Land" and ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
2	Best of Broadside 1962-1988 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists From the early '60s to the late '80s, Broadside magazine printed numerous topical songs by contemporary writers, in addition to articles and commentary. By far the most influential years of its life span were the earliest ones, in the early to mid-'60s, when it helped steer the folk movement toward original material that directly addressed modern ... see all copies from $31.42! new only from $31.42!
3	Vuelta (2004) more music like this by Richard Shindell When Richard Shindell moved to Buenos Aires in 2000, it seemed logical that his next set of songs would reflect the sights, sounds, and culture of his new home. With each new experience or discovery, it must have been tempting for Shindell to incorporate all those Latin flavors and influences into his songs and, basically, let the surroundings ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $15.98!
4	Where Have All the Flowers Gone: The Songs of Pete Seeger (1998) more music like this by Various Artists After listening to this multi-artist two-CD celebration of Pete Seeger's songs, you'll be delighted to read in the liner notes that it's "just the beginning of at least four volumes." Producer Jim Musselman calls the package a "labor of love," and that's clearly what it was. Musselman did a terrific job of choosing the songs from Seeger's vast ... see all copies from $30.20! new only from $30.20!
5	Sail On (1996) more music like this by Dick Gaughan While not the best album in Gaughan's impressive canon, Sail On is testament to the fact that he sounds best in a stripped-down setting. Unfortunately, it proves the point by a number of over-arranged pieces, like "Land of the North Wind" and "Son of Man," which utilize a band, it seems, just because they can, diluting the power of the songs. He's ... see all copies from $11.43! new only from $16.21!
6	Headlines and Footnotes: Collection of Topical Songs (1999) more music like this by Pete Seeger Like the prior compilation If I Had a Hammer, this focuses a little loosely on topical songs, concentrating on (but not limited to) ones that deal with specific events. At a glance this might seem like a less essential anthology, since If I Had a Hammer contained major songs identified with Seeger like "If I Had a Hammer," "Turn, Turn, Turn," "We ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
7	Protest: Songs of Struggle and Resistance from Around the World (2004) more music like this by Various Artists As a way to remind people that music has always been a global form of social resistance, Ellipsis Arts released Protest: Songs of Struggle and Resistance from Around the World, a collection spanning 40 years of the genre's history, from the 1960s all the way to the time the album was released in 2004. It would be difficult to compile a record of ... see all copies from $3.43! new only from $3.43!
8	A Link in the Chain (1996) more music like this by Pete Seeger While the neophyte might be better advised to start with the 20-track 1972 Columbia compilation The World of Pete Seeger, this collection would make a good second purchase to hear the highlights of Seeger's major-label sojourn. Eschewing such favorites as "Little Boxes" (Seeger's sole chart single) and "If I Had a Hammer" (which Seeger co-wrote), ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
9	Waist Deep in the Big Muddy and Other Love Songs (1967) more music like this by Pete Seeger One of Pete Seeger's most well-known protest albums -- he provoked a storm of controversy when CBS censors would not allow the singer/songwriter to perform "Waist Deep in the Big Muddy," a Vietnam parable based on an actual incident that occurred during World War II when a soldier who couldn't swim drowned when his commanding officer forced him to ... see all copies from $20.79!
10	The Further Adventures of Darling Cory (2002) more music like this by Lehto and Wright This album continues in much the same manner as Lehto and Wright's 2000 offering, Ye Mariners All. Exceptionally talented on guitars and bass, respectively, Steve Lehto and John Wright evoke memories of arguably the strongest period in Fairport Convention's storied career -- their early-'70s period, particularly 1970's Full House -- that is, when ... see all copies from $16.39! new only from $16.39!
