In follow-up to GC's recent Long Harvest megapost, I've crafted a custom selection of my favorite Peggy Seeger songs from what's an otherwise epic tome. A little something for you casual listeners. Seeger sings them lovely, high & lonesome. Tragedy abounds. This is beautiful stuff.Mediafire Download Link: Peggy Seeger- American Child Ballads

This is great: thank you so much! I loved the songs you posted from this boxed set, but the whole thing was rather sprawling for a neophyte: I really appreciate the tasteful distillation.
You're blog has been making my summer. Thank you for turning me on to so much wonderful music.
Best, Jedrific
Fantastic Selection, Peggy is sublime :)
thanks for the encouraging words, you two. much appreciated!
As jedrific said, 10 volumes are too much for me to digest right now, therefore it's all the more appreciated that you've selected an "abridged version" for a possible new fan of Seeger :-)
Primal beauty. Thanks very much.
Thank you so much!
