Gee, I had no problem. And here's another little gem about Joseph Stalin - by none other than Hank Williams. I find this a bit easier to take, and a bit shocking as it is unusual to hear any America-boosting in song these days. Of course, this IS around 60 years old

Here is: No No Joe by Hank

Ever hear the 1943 version of "Stalin Wasn't Stallin'" by The Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet? Rhapsody has it, meanwhile here's the 1981 cover by Robert Wyatt:

"...but soon they were dead!" Cheery little ditty! but they did read the psych-pop manual - great eerie fever-dream organ and raw lead guitar.
