And Bruce Springsteen's most recent album, "We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions" is his tribute to the music written and/or performed by Pete Seeger over the years. My favorite cut is "O Mary Don't You Weep" - saw him (Bruce) do it live on one of the networks when the album was released. Musically, Seeger is part and parcel of the whole American folk music history of the 20th century from the late 1930s onward.
