Sing Out!: A Concert Celebration of Pete
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4726633

Sing Out! held a 55th Anniversary concert in May of 2005, celebrating
the life and work of one of our founders, and longest time supporters: Pete
Seeger. The concert was recorded by David Dye, and released as a two-
hour radio special ("Sing Out!: A Concert Celebration of Pete Seeger")

The sold-to-the-rafters event featured performances by Pete, as well
as (in order) Holly Near, Bernice Johnson Reagon, Stephan Smith,
Tracy Schwarz  & Ginny Hawker, Janis Ian, Odetta, Judy Collins, Bruce Cockburn,
Natalie Merchant, Ronnie Gilbert, Pete (again) and then a "grand
finale" followed by spontaneous serenading by the audience ... all
hosted by the inimitable Gene Shay.
 

    Thanks especially to concert organizers Scott Atkinson and David
    Baskin, as well as a host of others who helped along the way (including Jim
    Mussleman of Appleseeds Recordings, and MANY of the great DJs on this list).
