The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) was initially an armed conflict between a democratically elected government and a revolt by far right-wing Spanish military officers led by Francisco Franco, who were supported by the fascist governments of Italy and Nazi Germany. Anti-fascist supporters flocked to Spain to help the beleaguered government. This recording contains a selection of pro-democracy, anti-fascist songs from that conflict including Woody Guthrie's version of "Jarama," a song about the Americans' involvement on the Republican side. Also featured are Spanish songs the Americans remembered especially fondly, several anti-fascist songs sung in German by Ernst Busch, and songs of combatants who had been captured and interned. Extensive liner notes include a history of the conflict and song lyrics.
