A More Perfect Union

This is Pete Seeger's last album with Lorre Wyatt released in 2012. An amazingly touching glimpse into what Pete was living and reflecting on at the end of his life. A treasure of a CD.

The duo is joined on specific tracks by Bruce Springsteen, Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Dar Williams and/or Tom Morello. God's Counting on Me/God's Counting on You is a glorious call to action featured in a 2010 video shot on the Sloop Clearwater.

The closing song, "Bountiful River" (which appears in Rise Again along with "God's Counting on You") is a hauntingly beautiful elegy to Pete & Toshi now that they have passed on.
