Peggy Quotes

Seeger's greatest asset is her uncanny ability to dissolve the gap between artist and audience. She belongs to a long line of musicians who sunder the meat from the bone effortlessly, rendering the unpalatable visible. Listening and watching her trawl through past and present, it was easy to see where Ani di Franco, Utah Philips and Bruce Springsteen drew from the well. - Siobhan Long, Irish Times

Peggy Quotes 2

One minute I was crying with laughter as Peggy read 1950s advice for wives.Then, like a curving ball from nowhere, a wave of emotion hit me and I was fighting to hide sobs, blinded by mascara, when Peggy sang The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.

Somewhere around this time my last CD, Bring Me Home is nominated for a Grammy. In my category are Kathy Mattea, Tom Paxton, Rosalie Sorrels and ... Pete Seeger. Lucky I'm not competitive, at least not highly so. Eventually, Pete's good album Pete at 89 takes the prize. Nevermind. I already have one, waaaaaay back for The Long Harvest, a set of ballad records that Ewan MacColl and I made in the 1970s.
