Hmmmm - I don't know about "Pete Seeger IS The Weavers" - I would have said that of Ronnie Gilbert instead.
Compared to Ronnie, I see Pete not as a singer/performer, but as a banjo player and collector of songs. The rich caramel of Ronnie's voice, and the passion of her performance, hold far more appeal for me than Pete's over-earnest stage presence and thin vocals.
Just my humble opinion, of course. I had a dear friend who spent many long months trying to introduce me to the Cult of Pete Seeger - but I'm afraid I Just Don't Get It.
