Since 1959, Seeger has written hundreds of songs. Those who regard Joni
Mitchell, Carole King, and Laura Nyro as the first generation of
singer-songwriters to craft material from women's experiences should
think again. Seeger is a missing link between the 1950s American
folk-song revival and women's liberation; the guitar-toting chanteuses
of the 1970s could not have existed without either of those movements. - Laura Pellegrinellli, The Village Voice
First off, Seeger's a daunting multi-instrumentalist, playing guitar, autoharp, banjo, piano, concertina, and of course singing. However, she doesn't just play, she demonstrates a fluency surprising even for an overachiever on the banjo, and her vocals can be either bird-on-a-wire delicate or gusty, ringing with authority and surprising projection. - Mark S. Tucker
