The concert was quite long, so I decided to split it into three parts. Perhaps in retrospect it would have made more sense to split it into two parts, because the concert reached a sort of emotional peak right in the middle with a group singalong of "We Shall Overcome." It seems an intermission followed that. But what's done is done, and I think it's a good listen this way as well.
Also, Seeger's direct participation is rather strange. He stayed off the stage for most of this concert that was dedicated to him, but he occasionally took part. For instance, he did a solo version of "Amazing Grace" in this part. He returned for the final part.
One weird thing about this part of this concert is that one song, "Garbage, Garbage, Garbage," was basically a duet between Tom Chapin, a human, and Oscar the Grouch, a Muppet famous for his long role on the TV show "Sesame Street." Normally, I would find this sort of thing silly or gimmicky. But in this case, I think it worked nicely. You can decide for yourself.
By the way, when I first posted "Part 1" a few days ago, I forgot to include "Part 1" in the title and artwork. That has now been fixed. So you might want to re-download it.
Also, note that the numbering in the song list starts with 21, in case you want to put all three of the albums from this concert into the same folder, to make it easier to listen to the entire concert all at once.
