Pete Seeger and The Weavers perform Israeli song Tzena, Tzena, Tzena.
The Jenkins/Weavers version, released by Decca Records under catalog number 27077, was one side of a two-sided hit, reaching #2 on the Billboard magazine charts while the flip side, “Goodnight Irene,” reached #1.
Same song performed by Arlo Guthrie:
I was really little but I remember my aunt playing Tzena over and over again on the record player. Funny, it’s one of my earliest memories. BTW, we were WASPS….more diverse than we ever knew…lol
Now you’re getting into singers I actually listen to! Both Pete Seeger and Arlo are on my Pandora play list.
