[Notes]
"To everyone in all the world / I reach my hand, I shake their hand," sings Pete Seeger. The material performed on this album—from a Japanese song, "Never Again Shall We Allow Another Atom Bomb to Fall(原爆許すまじ)" to a refrain sung during the Montgomery bus boycott in 1955—expresses the theme "To Everyone In the World."
