Where Have All the Flowers Gone

Where Have All the Flowers Gone**[4:51](P.Seeger): Penned by folk-icon Pete Seeger in 1960 and a top five song for "The Kingston Trio" in 1962, EW&F transforms this song into a folksy doo-wop ballad.
Unfortunately it sounds like Bailey is singing too close to the microphone and the background vocals don't quite mesh well (just barely missing) with Bailey's lead. Musically, Where Have All the Flowers Gone is above-average, the horns and strings show up nicely. Guitarist Roland Bautista demonstrates that he is proficient playing slow ballads. "Where Have All the Flowers Gone" was released as a single and offers a decent change of pace.
