Episode 12: Springsteen, Seeger & Community-Made Music

With his new album, We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions, Bruce Springsteen becomes one in a long line of American popular musicians who have turned to old time music to summon a community. The appeal of old-time is that in its natural habitat it is made not FOR the community but BY the community--tossed off in basements, on front stoops, in the back booths at bars, and of course at prayer meetings.

But Springsteen takes as his jumping off point not the informal circle of song but the work of the father of modern folk revival performance, Pete Seeger. At the core of Seeger's act was the idea of the hootenanny--a singalong that was a deliberate effort to evoke old-time community-made music in the service of left wing politics. It set the mold for an entire strain of American rock.
