DVD: Folk Legends: Isn't This A Time!
Exclusive through February 4, 2018. Folk Legends: Isn't This A Time! was perhaps one of the greatest folk concerts of all time. The Weavers, Peter, Paul & Mary, Pete Seeger, and Arlo Guthrie performed together at Carnegie Hall in 2003. This last gathering of these legendary folk artists was the final in a series of annual concerts at Carnegie Hall that was produced by the late folk impresario Harold Leventhal. Folk Legends: Isn't This A Time! is linked to the famous 1955 Carnegie Hall concert by the Weavers that was masterminded by Harold Leventhal to defy the blacklist and to restore The Weavers right to perform publicly. Some music historians attribute the start of the modern folk revival to that historic performance. Folk Legends: Isn't This A Time! is directed by 4-time Emmy® Award winner Jim Brown who is responsible for The Weavers: Wasn't That A Time!, 50 Years With Peter Paul and Mary and Pete Seeger: The Power of Song and Vision Shared: A Tribute to Leadbelly and Woody Guthrie.
