Watch The Best of Pete Seeger's 1960s Rainbow Quest

Between 1965 and 1966, Pete Seeger produced 39 unrehearsed episodes of Rainbow Quest. Filmed in black-and-white at a studio at WNJU-TV, a New York based UHF station, Rainbow Quest was the kind of show that would soon vanish from the mainstream airwaves. It featured Seeger and other musicians, many of them little-know, playing folk, bluegrass and the blues. We've collected some of our favorite clips from the show.
