Forty-five years later, a 67-year-old Seeger teamed up with Jane Sapp and Si Kahn to record a new album for Flying Fish Records in the same spirit and even using some of the same songs. In 1941, on some of his first recordings, 22-year-old Pete Seeger joined with the other members of the Almanac Singers to perform union songs on the album Talking Union and Other Songs. ![]()
