"[...] Recorded in 1942, just two months after America's entry into World War II against the Axis, these songs of Russian, Spanish, German and American origin reflected a growing American mood supporting the defense of freedom against the fascist onslaught and identifying with the hopes of "the ordinary Joe" for a better future.".
