J'ai travaillé quelques années au Canadien Pacifique, puis 22 ans au Canadien National (de 1973 à 1995). Cette chanson, composée par Elizabeth Cotten, me rend mélancolique...

I always appreciated this artist, his enthusiasm and the hope that it passed on its songs. Peace to you, Pete Seeger.

Many comments here in memoriam-- I'm with you brothers and sisters. I'm sorry though, I have to argue with the sadness. If you live your life like Pete Seeger, or Joe Hill, you ain't dead even after you die.

And the man asked, "Who's side you on boy?"And I said, "From the right side"."I'm as high as high, as low as low"."I'm as left as left and as right as right".And I said ....."I'm from the middle"."I'm on Our side".By Harbinger

Seger means victory in swedish. It´s a typical soldier name.

The gentle, breezy rhythm to 'Wilson Rag' is an example of something I call Carolina Swing. IMO, swing -- in its many varieties -- is a distinct American musical vernacular, and it lies behind much of this nation's popular music -- rock, pop, country, almost any recorded-music genre you can name.Just as New Orleans swing created jazz, Carolina swing created folk -- two musical art forms that are woven into very fabric of American cultural life.Here's Pete Seeger performing the song referenced in the video clip linked previously -- "Freight Train".
