[Coco] Read it and weep

[Bill Pierce]

Gene, I read that this morning and it saddened me greatly. I learned a lot from Pere Seeger. I was too young to be a part of the whole "protest movement", but discovered an old Pete Seeger album in a box of radio station "demo" records a friend gave me. It was just an album of some simple folk songs played on 4-string banjo. I then collected anything I could find on the man and saw a few performances on PBS.
He showed me that a couple of chords and a simple line of truth could say more than any 10 page speech from a podium.

As Jimi sang it: "If I don't see you agin in this world, I'll see you in the next one... and don't be late!"
And as Arlo would say: "We're just waitin' for it to come around again on the guitar...."
