Indeed!

I got my first guitar for Christmas 1963 (Two months before the Beatles appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show), and so, for a budding guitar player (11 years old) I naturally gravitated towards “Folk” music. I liked Dylan and learned all his early songs. The only Pete Seeger song I used to sing was “Where Have All The Flowers Gone?” and just by accident found out that Seeger had stolen the song almost verbatim from a Don Cossack Folk Song! Then, there was that time when he tried to cut off Dylan’s electricity at the Newport Folk Festival! I have had no use for Seeger for at least a HALF CENTURY!!!!
