By , About.com GuideMarch 3, 2006

Follow me on:

On April 25, Bruce Springsteen will release a CD that will pay tribute to the legendary work of singer/songwriter Pete Seeger. The album will be released just in time for Seeger's 87th birthday on May 3. The record will include 13 songs that have become synonymous with Seeger's career, including one of the most poignant protest songs of American history: "We Shall Overcome." Springsteen will embark on a short American tour, in support of the CD, which will be released on Columbia Records. For more information, visit Bruce Springsteen's Web site.
