You will be thoroughly entertained and uplifted by four people who obvious ly love what they are doing - lifting their voices in song and spreading t heir message of tolerance throughout mankind. Lee Hays - the brains behind the group and behind the movie - knew he was dying as he assembled his co horts for one last get-together at his farm, which turned into an incredib le reunion at Carnegie Hall. The voices may waver, but the emotions are mo re powerful than ever. Ronnie Gilbert'\;s duet with Holly Near about &q uot\;The Disappeared"\; in Chile ("\;Hay Una Mujer"\;) will ra ise the hair on the back of your neck. Pete Seeger and Fred Hellerman neve r sounded better. All of the voices belting out the title tune during rehe arsal even surprise the singers - there'\;s a sudden silence when they finish like they can'\;t believe what they'\;ve just sung.
