At 89

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. "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. He gave its rights to the Whale Fund, an auxiliary of the New York Zoological Society which is concerned with whale conservation. Despite playing the song live, he did not record it officially until At 89. ==Track listing==
