Movie Reviews of Live in Australia 1963

Movie Review: Justice is Served
Summary: 5 Stars

Pete Seeger was banned from American Television in 1963. As any great American would, he didn't stand for it. He took his act on the road, to the world. And here the great people of Reelin' In the Years provide us with the proof of his noble efforts, capturing an entire concert given in Australia. If a good man is never honored in his own country, Pete Seeger was honored in every other corner of the globe. The video is first rate, the sound is too. (Much better than on that 'Hootenanny' DVD. You remember Hootenanny, the ABC show that wanted Pete to sign a Loyalty Oath). Get the DVD. You'll see a great artist, a great spirit, and a great American at work.

Summary of Live in Australia 1963

Folk Icons: Pete Seeger is a beautifully filmed 105-minute concert showcasing one of the most provocative figures in music history. In 1963 Pete Seeger, blacklisted and barred from American television, fled the persecution of his homeland and embarked on a 10-month world tour. One of his first stops was Australia where he was welcomed with open arms and sold-out performances. This DVD not only presents a full concert filmed in Melbourne but also includes 55 minutes of bonus footage from various other Australian television appearances. Witness how one man, armed only with a banjo, a guitar and the power of song, captures the hearts and minds of a nation.
