Hope theres no sarcastic remarks, but would just like to give Pete Seeger a mention on his 90th birthday, he was a big influence on the folk scene of the 60s. All the best Pete at least you you were there to see them overcome.

I still can't see the videos but, none the less, I was - am - a big fan of Seger. I was a folk singer in the late 60s and he was a big influence on the folk culture. He made many popular records but my favourite was always "Little Boxes". It spoke volumes about modern life.
Thanks for that Mr C, Yea he was already midle age when we were only in our teens,
His double disk, "American Industrial Ballads" album is only £2.99 at HMV at the moment.
Just by chance came upon this, doubt if they made his birthday party though, shame.
