2018 three CD release, featuring exclusive Springsteen recording of "If I Had a Hammer." For more than two decades the independent, idealistic Appleseed Recordings label has been releasing new and archival CDs of folk/roots-oriented music by many of the genre's greatest performers. The label's Where Have All the Flowers Gone Pete Seeger tribute, featuring Bruce Springsteen's "We Shall Overcome," planted the seeds for his later Seeger Sessions project.
Appleseed's 21st Anniversary: Roots and Branches, a deluxe three-CD, 57-track set, combines highlights from past releases, including Springsteen's "We Shall Overcome" plus many more by a Who's Who of musical giants including Pete Seeger, Billy Bragg, Steve Earle, Joan Baez, Natalie Merchant, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Tom Paxton, and Roger McGuinn.
Moreover, there are nine new/previously unreleased songs by high-profile friends of the label, including Springsteen's "If I Had a Hammer," plus Tom Morello's "This Land Is Your Land," Tom Russell, Tim Robbins, and John Wesley Harding. More than three hours of music are packaged in a digipack that includes a deluxe full-color 32-page booklet with notes about each song and artist and a history of the Appleseed label.
