Composition


The album features a blend of instrumental and vocal songs, interspersed with spoken word segments. Several tracks were recorded at the Howland Center in Beacon, NY with a large group of people working in community.[citation needed]

"Song of the World's Last Whale" is an anti-whaling song composed by Seeger in 1970 after he listened to the "whale song" discovered by Roger Payne.[3] He gave its rights to the Whale Fund, an auxiliary of the New York Zoological Society which is concerned with whale conservation.[4] Despite playing the song live, he did not record it officially until At 89.[3][5]
