Peter "Pete" Seeger (May 3, 1919 – January 27, 2014) was an American folk singer and activist. A fixture on nationwide radio in the 1940s, he also had a string of hit records during the early 1950s as a member of the Weavers, most notably their recording of Lead Belly's "Goodnight, Irene", which topped the charts for 13 weeks in 1950. Members of the Weavers were blacklisted during the McCarthy Era. In the 1960s, he re-emerged on the public scene as a prominent singer of protest music in support of international disarmament, civil rights, counterculture and environmental causes.
A prolific songwriter, his best-known songs include "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" (with Joe Hickerson), "If I Had a Hammer (The Hammer Song)" (with Lee Hays of the Weavers), and "Turn! Turn! Turn!" (lyrics adapted from Ecclesiastes), which have been recorded by many artists both in and outside the folk revival movement and are sung throughout the world. "Flowers" was a hit recording for the Kingston Trio (1962); Marlene Dietrich, who recorded it in English, German and French (1962); and Johnny Rivers (1965). "If I Had a Hammer" was a hit for Peter, Paul & Mary (1962) and Trini Lopez (1963), while the Byrds had a number one hit with "Turn! Turn! Turn!" in 1965.
Listen Here! is a sampler album released by Transatlantic Records in 1968. It was the second significant UK contemporary music sampler release in the period.
Transatlantic, founded in 1961, was a prototype for many of the UK independent labels that followed it. It established the UK folk-rock market, first by importing American records, and then by recording British artists. With the advent of psychedelia and flower power, the Transatlantic stable of artists achieved increasing popularity, culminating in the formation of the supergroup Pentangle. Meanwhile Transatlantic had been extending its eclecticism, recording such as the eccentric audio collageist Ron Geesin, and The Purple Gang, whose "Granny Takes A Trip" was banned by the BBC in 1967.
CBS had released the extremely successful contemporary music budget sampler with The Rock Machine Turns You On in 1967. Before CBS could follow up, Transatlantic released Listen Here! early in 1968. Like Rock Machine the record was priced at 14/11d (£0.75), but Transatlantic took promotion one stage further by not only printing the track listing on the front, but also the price. The record was designed to preview not only the forthcoming Pentangle double album, but solo records by members Bert Jansch and John Renbourn. Listen Here! also served to introduce a new group The Sallyangie, with siblings Mike and Sally Oldfield.
Listen Here! is an album by Eddie Palmieri. In 2006, the album won Palmieri the Grammy Award for Best Latin Jazz Album.
Listen Here is the seventh album by American jazz vibraphonist Freddie McCoy which was recorded in 1968 for the Prestige label.
Allmusic rated the album 2 stars.

A workshop led by Pete Seeger on singing, song writing and song leading done in San Francisco.
Yesterday, May 3, would have been Pete's 101st birthday. If we were together at school today, we'd be gathering in the amphitheater for our annual celebration of our old friend Pete. Since we can't do that, our community has come together so that we gather here online, to carry on this tradition and learn some of Old Pete's lessons. We're glad you're here. Be sure to check out a reading of a biography about Pete and other stories, as well as some Pete-inspired art and music ideas all week, right here on Randolph Beyond's channel.

Cover of Phil Ochs song. Vietnam War songs: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/JBrummer/vietnam_war_song_project/ A satirical anti-war song that became an anthem of the peace movement in the 1960s, it reached a more mainstream audience than other contemporary folk anti-war tracks, and several artists covered the song (although it made little commercial impact). In the lyrics, Ochs listed every conceivable excuse available for somebody to avoid the draft. But firstly, it started with a young man expressing his hate of communism: "I knew better dead than red", and thus his patriotism: "I'm just a typical American boy from a typical American town I believe in God and Senator Dodd and an keepin' old Castro down And when it came my time to serve I knew better dead than red" But when the draftee g...
TAKE ME TO THE WATER An Intimate Interview with Pete Seeger This personal interview with Pete Seeger was conducted and produced by NJFC member Andrea L. Spinelli, in February 2000, at the Hudson River Sloop Club meeting house near Pete’s home in Beacon, New York At the time, Pete was planning The Ships to Save The Waters Conference to be held in the summer of 2000 at Jersey City, NJ. The Conference would coincide with Op-Sail 2000, when Tall Ships, including environmental education ships, from around the world would be convening in New York Harbor. In the interview he references the Conference as well as the history of The Clearwater, the Classroom of the Waves, and personal life stories. Several members of the New Jersey and New York City Sloop Clubs were also present and can be heard sin...
Around 1980 the late Pete Seeger led a workshop on song-leading for the San Francisco Folk Music Club. The two-hour session was recorded on video tape and recently posted to YouTube, but the video has a green tint that makes it almost unwatchable. With thanks to the original up-loader, I have consolidated the 12 segments into four, and removed the green tint. It's an amazing document, with Pete giving general tips about how to get a group singing, and talking at length about many different styles of music.

Chorus:
Seventy miles of wind and spray,
Seventy miles of water,
Seventy miles of open bay--
It's a garbage dump.
What's that stinky creek out there,
Down behind the slum's back stair
Sludgy puddle, sad and gray?
Why man, that's San Francisco Bay.
(CHORUS)
Big Solano and the Montecelle'
Ferry boats, I know them well,
Creek and groan in their muddy graves
Remembering San Francisco Bay
(CHORUS)
Joe Ortega and the Spanish crew
Sailed across the ocean blue
Came into the mighty Bay
Stood on the decks and cried, "Ole"
(CHORUS)
Fill it here, fill it here.
Docks and tidelands disappear,
Shaky houses on the quaky ground
The builder, he's Las Vegas bound
(CHORUS)
Dump the garbage in the Bay
City fathers say, "Okay,
When cries of anguish fill the air,
We'll be off on the Riviere."
