'we shall overcome: the seeger sessions' features bruce's personal interpretations of thirteen traditional songs, all of them associated with the legendary guiding light of american folk music, pete seeger, for whom the album is named. speaking of the origins of the new music, springsteen said, "so much of my writing, particularly when i write acoustically, comes straight out of the folk tradition. making this album was creatively liberating because i have a love of all those different roots sounds... they can conjure up a world with just a few notes and a few words." springsteen recorded the album with a large ensemble. the musicians on the record are springsteen (guitar, harmonica, b3 organ and percussion), sam bardfeld (violin), art baron (tuba) frank bruno (guitar), jeremy chatzy (upright bass), mark clifford (banjo), larry eagle (drums and percussion), charles giordano (b3 organ, piano and accordion), ed manion (saxophone), mark pender (trumpet), richie 'la bamba' rosenberg (trombone) and soozie tyrell (violin). lisa lowell, patti scialfa, springsteen, pender, tyrell, and rosenberg contribute backing vocals. the dvd contains extensive behind the scenes footage of the recording of the album plus two bonus tracks and a special booklet including a note from springsteen.
