Peggy Seeger visited KPFA and talked about performing, writing music, why she doesn't call herself a feminist, and why women need to work together. Interspersed with the interview are excerpts from a performance at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, recorded by Tony Ferro on November 21, 1978. The interview was also recorded in November 1978, while Seeger and her English songwriter husband Ewan MacColl were touring the United States. The concert portion of the program was produced for Pacifica by Nancy Guin. The rest of the program was produced by Susan Kernes for Pacifica.
