False Information
edit"Like that previous studio album, Devils & Dust, The Seeger Sessions was released exclusively on the DualDisc format, with the exception of a limited Vinyl release."
This is quite simply not true. Amazon.com and other internet-stores list a CD/DVD and a DualDisc version, and I bought my own copy (a CD/DVD and not a DualDisc) in Holland, where the DualDisc is actually quite hard to find. I have thus removed this phrase.

Dismay?
edit"To the dismay of some Springsteen fans, it was his second consecutive non-E Street Band, non-rock music project."
- Now that's what I call NPOV.

- Hey, it's true. And if you compare the sales and Devils & Dust and this album combined to The Rising, you'll see a noticeable drop. Not to mention concert attendance. Wasted Time R 00:44, 9 September 2006 (UTC
Yeah but isn't every release by every band to the dismay of at least "some" of the fans for some reason?~~
To Update
editThe selling count needs updating from the June figures. Long past Gold, should be nearing Platinum now no ? └ VodkaJazz / talk ┐ 22:56, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
- Someone just updated the discography article to say sales are at 550,000, so I added that here to. A long way from platinum.... Wasted Time R 00:41, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Seeger authorship
editThis is not a huge issue, but:
The article says this album "contains his interpretation of thirteen folk music songs written or made popular by activist folk musician Pete Seeger." However, scrolling down to the songlist we see that just one song (Bring 'Em Home) is credited to Seeger, and it was added in a later release. I assume that all the rest meet the test of "made popular by" Seeger, but if not, then obviously that would need a change. I think this is a great album and understand these pages are a labor of love, just wanted to flag what I noticed in case anyone thought it needed adjustment. Peace, out.
