Pete Seeger - "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" [Official Audio]

Description

Listen to the official audio of Pete Seeger's "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" from the 2002 album 'American Favorite Ballads, Vol.1' on Smithsonian Folkways. Smithsonian Folkways: https://folkways.si.edu/pete-seeger/american-favorite-ballads-vol-1/folk/music/album/smithsonian Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/7tOP92RZSo7e896sPIOPY8?si=KFoIF0Z8QxCDQE04SB6dNg Recorded during the heart of the great "folk song revival" of the 1950s and 1960s, Pete Seeger's American Favorite Ballads was, and is, a classic series of albums. Ballads contains definitive bits of Americana that have been a part of our lives for more than a half century, including songs like "This Land is Your Land," "America the Beautiful," "John Henry," and "Shenandoah." This CD is the first in a series of Ballad reissues and is essential for any fan of American folk music to own. Compiled and annotated by Jeff Place and Guy Logsdon.
