Pete Seeger teaching you how to play banjo is like Michael Jordan teaching you how to play basketball.

There was never a man I probably disagreed with more in his politics but whom I respected more so because of his character integrity,honesty, and commitment. Also a wonderful musician and champion of the banjo. He could make the thing walk with a strut.

I was looking for online banjo lessons because I have to use banjo in a MIDI recording and I needed to know exactly how arrangements are structured for the banjo. Who knew I'd have learned exactly what I needed to know from Pete Seeger!

Pete's banjo lessons came out in 1954, probably on record with an accompanying booklet...which was followed by the same sort of set for guitar. this was when he was pretty much banned from TV (from the mid 50's to mid 60's) for refusing to rat out his friends during the McCarthy hearings. So, I have to assume that this video is probably from around the time that the ban was lifted about 1965...when he did his Rainbow Quest program (1965-66).

Lol such an unassuming, Mr. Roger's lookin fella... yet he was soooooooo "dangerous" and threatening to the establishment they actually banned him from television for a while Haha nice.. what's funny is I'm not a liberal, and I certainly dont agree with a lot of his political ideologies, I just appreciate good music and real people and those who are unafraid to speak and be themselves and refuse to stay silent and stick up for what you believe in is right... I dont think it matters what your politics are as long as you are genuine and true... unless you're a Nazi or something, then it matters haha
