We also discussed some of the original protest songs that they have previously recorded.
In the episode, we feature portions of album tracks "Get Together' and "At Seventeen" and play "Turn! Turn! Turn!" in its entirety to conclude the episode. We also feature snippets of their original compositions "God Knows", "Songs of Hope and Freedom", "Too Far to Turn Back Now", "Silver Star" and a few impromptu sung verses of "Crusader".
