In this epsiode we examine several of Pete Seeger’s albums recorded and released after the period of the Blacklist. We discuss the Bowdoin College Concert and Live at the Village Gate, and his first Columbia albums - Story Songs, The Bitter and the Sweet, and Children's Concert at Town Hall. We also dissect Pete’s efforts to bring folk music to people through television, particularly the controversy over censorship surrounding the failed attempt to get Seeger to appear on the Hootenanny television show.
