I thought this pretty good but the singing should have been cutted out


I thought the reading were pretty good and I have got to say I was very impressed with Viggo Mortenson's Spanish. I think it is interesting to listen the generations of the unspoken and the unheard voices of both famous and ordinary day people who struggle to make change in our country and made what Americana is today. I know that some people think that there were socialists and communists views and ideas were shown on the show but we as listeners need to understand that it is the voices and the experiences that matter most and we also need to look beyond the views and beliefs than to agree or disagree. I honestly the only flaw was the singing I'm sorry I'm not Bruce Springsteen fan nor a Bob Dylan fan but I thought they should have cut them out that Eddie Vedder guy should have been cut out too, plus you couldn't understand what he was saying and he was singing off key. The Neil Young's song about the Kent State Shootings was very touching and had me in tears. If they left some of the singing out it would have been better. But overall this a worth watching special.
