A few weeks ago I was so blessed to see Judy Collins perform live in a beautiful theater in my town. She is 84 now! And sounded wonderful and told great stories from her early years in Greenwich Village etc. I love Turn, Turn, Turn. Putting Scripture to current music to help us connect with it is powerful. Blessings, friends!

in the seventies all of my friends and of course me too had a pete seeger greatest hits album.... "little boxes", "if i had a hammer", "where have all the flowers gone" and all these wonderful songs were part of our identity as "freaks". and all these freaks would meet practically daily in a little egyptian joint that was called "teehaus" ("teahouse"). you could choose from many sorts of tea there, no alcohol. only for your first cup of tea you had to pay a minimal amount, all following cups were for free. they also served cheese/spinach pies there and milk rice, everything ridiculously cheap. "teehaus" opened daily at 5 pm and closed when all the young guests had gone, open end. there was a wonderful piano player there, johnny "manhattan" taylor and on the weekends poets and writers would read their poetry. i had my first own poetry reading there, the place was packed. these are wonderful memories for me. i miss these fantastic times very much. regards and best wishes from austria ! ☮

Melina Mercouri participated in the rally as well as Jules Dassin, director and her husband. I had just come from Sweden to New York.

Judy Collins was born in Seattle, Washington on May 1st, 1939. She is a Grammy Award-winning American singer and songwriter with a career spanning over 60 years. She is known for her eclectic tastes in the material she records (which has included folk music, show tunes, pop music, rock and roll and standards) for her social activism, and for the clarity of her voice. Collins has released 28 studio albums, 4 live albums, numerous compilation albums and 4 holiday albums. Today, May 1st, 2021, she is celebrating her 82nd birthday.

This is the most beautiful and touching rendition of this tune I’m aware of. Pete Seeger”s gentle harmonies against Judy Collin”s clear and loving voice tug at my heart strings. I hope this post doesn’t get removed by a resentful, avaricious rights holder like all the previous ones. If it does, it will pop up again somewhere. This tune embodies the sort of unquenchable freedom that refuses to be silenced. Long live folk music!

The performance is truly sublime, but what strikes me is the expression in Judy Collins’ eyes as she looks at Pete Seeger. It is an expression we see less and less these days given the increasing egocentricity of our age. It is a mature look of love, kindness and compassion for someone other than herself. I miss that look in people's eyes.

@jamesdolan40424 жыл бұрын
@@Blinknone Actually I know many extraordinary gifted and talented musicians performing on single instruments and even multi instruments today. It is just that they are not in the forefront of the public realm. Music like all the other arts needs to have a voice in these multimedia times. Popular music today is an art fom and performances need to have a tremendous visual appeal to get the attention of the consumer. There are multiple delivery forms of music today to the consumer, some very, very personal and personalized. Then there is the synthetic music, sometimes called house music and/or electronic music where arrangements are so key to the performance. We cannot forget style and voice, how much of a generational thing that is. Finally there is comparing like with like. Would either Pete Seeger or Judy Collins be regarded as popular music when they produced that version of "Turn, Turn, Turn" was televised. I am not sure, but I don't think so.

Same here. I tuned in to their fundraising program and they were promoting their “Folk Rewind” CD set. This was the footage I was met with. I’ve always been into vintage music and footage, but I’m not really familiar with the folk genre. Nevertheless, this really resonated with me. Her voice and Seeger’s harmony, layered with the guitars... it’s chilling. And that gaze of hers too... geez. I’m convinced that art is a sign of the times, and this footage/song really testifies to that. I knew the popular version of this song, but had never heard this version (or much less knew about it)... this is the one I’ll go to from now on!

However, in the Bible, these passages were written by Solomon, to stress that we must put our eternal destiny/home, ahead of material experiences, things; that are fleeting in this mortal life. Keep your "faithful eye" on your eternal life; with our Creator in Heaven. There; is the ultimate "season". BLESSINGS.

Now, finally, I know what those words mean, and I am comforted by them.
